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

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

## Why run_impacket_mimikatz is rated High

Mimikatz execution is a high-impact offensive operation that can dump credentials from memory, forge tickets, and enable further system compromise. While the tool itself is legitimate for authorized penetration testing, autonomous execution by an AI agent poses critical risk: an agent could misuse it to extract sensitive credentials, escalate privileges, or compromise system security without proper authorization…

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'run_impacket_mimikatz' indicates execution of Mimikatz (a credential dumping and exploitation tool) via Impacket framework."

## Use case

AI agents invoke run_impacket_mimikatz to trigger actions in Pentester-MCP. 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 Pentester-MCP:

```json

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
