## Facts

- Tool: `issue-comment`
- Server: Build (`Dave-London/Pare`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-dave-london-build.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/Dave-London/pare
- 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": "issue-comment",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why issue-comment is rated Medium

The tool performs reversible modifications to issue comments in what is likely a GitHub or similar issue-tracking system. While it can delete comments, the deletion is of individual comments within an issue context rather than bulk data destruction, and the operation could theoretically be reversed by re-adding the comment. This makes it Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states it 'Adds, edits, or deletes a comment on an issue.' This is a write operation that modifies data (creates new comments, updates existing ones, or removes them)."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "issue-comment": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "issue-comment_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
