## Why neuron_send_poll is rated Medium

This is a Write operation because it creates new data (poll messages) and sends them to users, producing side effects in conversations. It is not Read (does not merely retrieve data), Execute (does not run arbitrary code or commands), Destructive (does not delete or irreversibly overwrite data), Financial (no money involved), or Other.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Send a poll message via WhatsApp' — this actively creates and transmits a poll message to WhatsApp users, which modifies the state of conversations and message history."

## Use case

AI agents use neuron_send_poll to create or update resources in Neuron, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Neuron environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

    "neuron_send_poll": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "neuron_send_poll_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
