Tool only available in standalone deployment

## Facts

- Tool: `standalone_deploy_tool`
- Server: Frontmcp (`agentfront/frontmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/frontmcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/agentfront/frontmcp
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "standalone_deploy_tool",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why standalone_deploy_tool is rated High

Deployment tools execute infrastructure operations whose effects depend on deployment arguments and environment configuration. While not inherently destructive, deployment can trigger significant state changes across systems (updates, restarts, configuration changes). This falls under Execute rather than Write because deployments typically invoke external processes and operations beyond simple data modification.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'standalone_deploy_tool' and description indicating this tool is 'only available in standalone deployment' suggests it performs deployment operations."

## Use case

AI agents invoke standalone_deploy_tool to trigger actions in Frontmcp. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Frontmcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "standalone_deploy_tool": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "standalone_deploy_tool_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
