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

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

## Why label-create is rated Medium

This tool modifies repository state by adding a new label, which is a reversible Write operation. Severity is medium because creating unwanted labels clutters the repository but does not delete data, cause financial loss, or execute arbitrary code. The tool's scope is limited to label creation within a repository management context.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'label-create' and description states it 'Creates a new repository label' with structured return data including label properties. The action creates new data (a label) that is reversible (labels can be deleted or modified)."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "label-create": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "label-create_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
