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

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

## Why migrate_vector_to_halfvec is rated Medium

The tool performs a reversible transformation of vector data from standard to half-precision format. This is a Write operation because it modifies data and schema state, but is reversible (can migrate back). It affects production data structures, making it high severity due to potential impact on query results, storage, and application compatibility, though no data is deleted.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'migrate_vector_to_halfvec' indicates a data conversion operation transforming vector columns to half-precision floating point format. This is a schema/data modification operation. The description is empty, limiting confidence."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
