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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why pr-review is rated Medium

This tool writes a review to a pull request, which can approve or request changes — a reversible but consequential action that could affect code merging decisions. It does not delete data, execute code, or involve finances, so Write is the most appropriate category. Severity is high because approving PRs on behalf of an AI agent could allow malicious or buggy code to be merged into a codebase.

From the tool's own definition: "Submits a review on a pull request (approve, request-changes, or comment)"

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "pr-review": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "pr-review_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
