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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "board_post",
    "arguments": {}

```

## Why board_post is rated Medium

While this tool involves a micropayment mechanism (1 sat per post after 10 free posts), the primary action is creating/posting a message, which is a reversible write operation. The financial component is secondary and relatively trivial (satoshis are micro-transactions). The tool modifies shared state (the board) but does not delete or irreversibly alter existing data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Post a message' and 'costs 1 sat each' after initial free posts. This creates new data (messages) on a board and commits financial obligations (satoshi payments)."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
