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

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

    "name": "issue-comment",
    "arguments": {}

## Why issue-comment is rated Medium

This tool modifies data (issue comments) in a reversible manner. Adding and editing comments are Write operations as they create or modify data without permanent destruction. Although deletion is mentioned, the emphasis on 'Adds, edits, or deletes' with structured return data suggests this is primarily a Write tool for comment lifecycle management.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Adds, edits, or deletes a comment on an issue' - the primary actions are Create (add) and Modify (edit) operations. While delete is mentioned, the tool's main purpose is reversible comment management on issues."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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