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

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

## Why template_use is rated Medium

The tool creates new data structures (a full-stack project) in a reversible manner. This is a Write operation—it produces new files and configuration but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or commit financial transactions. Severity is medium because misuse could result in resource consumption or unwanted project creation, but the effects are recoverable by deletion.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'template_use' combined with description 'Apply a full-stack template to create a new project' indicates creation of new project artifacts."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json

    "template_use": {
      "limits": [
        {
