HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/graysoncadams-mealie-mcp/create-shopping-list ## Facts - Tool: `create_shopping_list` - Server: Mealie MCP Server (`graysoncadams/mealie-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/graysoncadams-mealie-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/GraysonCAdams/mealie-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium 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": "create_shopping_list", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_shopping_list is rated Medium This tool creates a new shopping list, which is a reversible write operation. It modifies the system state by adding data but does not delete, execute arbitrary code, move money, or perform irreversible actions. The blast radius is minimal—a shopping list can be deleted or modified if created in error. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_shopping_list' and description 'Create a new shopping list' indicate data creation. The verb 'Create' establishes this as a write operation that adds a new shopping list entity to the system." ## Use case AI agents use create_shopping_list to create or update resources in Mealie MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mealie MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
