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

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

## Why submit_array_job is rated High

This tool triggers execution of parallel tasks on a Slurm HPC cluster. Submitting array jobs initiates real compute workloads that consume cluster resources, run arbitrary code, and can have wide-ranging side effects depending on the job scripts. This is clearly Execute category with high severity due to the potential blast radius of running arbitrary parallel jobs on shared infrastructure.

From the tool's own definition: "'Submit a Slurm array job for parallel task execution' — submits and runs jobs on a cluster scheduler"

## Use case

AI agents invoke submit_array_job to trigger actions in CLIO Adios. 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 CLIO Adios:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "submit_array_job": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "submit_array_job_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
