HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-arielbk-anki-mcp/gui-edit-note ## Facts - Tool: `gui_edit_note` - Server: Anki (`@arielbk/anki-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-arielbk-anki-mcp.md - Install: `npx -y @arielbk/anki-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/arielbk/anki-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": "gui_edit_note", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why gui_edit_note is rated Medium The 'edit' operation modifies existing flashcard note data reversibly. This is a Write action (not Read, since it changes data; not Destructive, since edits are reversible). Medium severity reflects that corrupted or malicious note edits could degrade study quality, but damage is limited to individual cards and reversible via undo. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'gui_edit_note' with 'edit' verb indicates modification of note data. Sibling tools like 'gui_add_cards' and 'gui_answer_card' suggest this is a GUI operation for note management in Anki. No description provided, limiting specificity." ## Use case AI agents use gui_edit_note to create or update resources in Anki, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Anki environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
