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

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

## Why vite-build is rated High

This tool executes an external build process (Vite) whose effects depend on the codebase being built. While not destructive in intent, build processes can consume significant resources, modify the filesystem, and trigger downstream operations. An AI agent with unsupervised access could trigger resource exhaustion or unintended builds.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'vite-build' and description 'Runs Vite production build' indicate execution of a build process with external side effects. The phrase 'returns structured output files' confirms it generates artifacts on the filesystem."

## Use case

AI agents invoke vite-build to trigger actions in Docker. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## 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": {
    "vite-build": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "vite-build_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "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`
