# util_seeded_pairing

Seeded Pairing creates reproducible non-overlapping pairs and reports an optional bye from bounded caller-supplied values without an external provider. Call Seeded Pairing when an agent needs a reproducible decision that another run can independently replay. Returns the deterministic selection plus seed provenance, population bounds, and the operation-specific outcome for Seeded Pairing as versioned deterministic JSON. Limitation: Uses Python pseudorandomness for reproducibility, not cryptography, lotteries with value, security tokens, gambling, or custody.

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "util_seeded_pairing",
    "arguments": {
      "seed": "<seed>",
      "participants": []
    }
  }
}
```

## Why util_seeded_pairing is rated High

util_seeded_pairing triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

## Use case

AI agents invoke util_seeded_pairing to trigger actions in Delx Mcp A2a. 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 Delx Mcp A2a:
