## Facts

- Tool: `turn_off_layer`
- Server: Pypi:best Cad (`pypi:best-cad-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp.md
- Install: `npx -y pypi:best-cad-mcp`
- Homepage: https://github.com/LokmenoWer/best-cad-mcp
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

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

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

## Why turn_off_layer is rated Medium

This tool modifies the visibility property of a CAD layer, which is a reversible change to drawing state. It does not delete data (would be Destructive) nor execute arbitrary code (would be Execute). The change can be undone by turning the layer back on.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'turn_off_layer' and description indicating the layer is hidden but still participates in regeneration calculations. This modifies layer visibility state in the CAD drawing."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "turn_off_layer": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "turn_off_layer_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
