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

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

## Why unlock_layer is rated Medium

This tool modifies the lock state of a CAD layer, reversibly changing its properties from locked to editable. This is a Write operation as it changes data/object state without permanently destroying it. The severity is medium because unauthorized unlocking of layers could allow unintended modifications to CAD drawings, but the change is reversible (layers can be locked again).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'unlock_layer' and description '解锁图层（恢复可编辑状态）' which translates to 'Unlock layer (restore editable state)' indicates modification of layer properties to enable editing."

## Use case

AI agents use unlock_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)
