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

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

```

## Why pr-update is rated Medium

This tool modifies repository metadata (PR title, body, labels, assignees, reviewers, milestone, base branch, projects) but does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. These changes are reversible—fields can be updated again to previous values.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool updates pull request metadata including title, body, labels, assignees, reviewers, milestone, base branch, and projects. The description explicitly states it 'Updates' these fields, which are reversible modifications to repository collaboration data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
