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

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

## Why pg_doc_add is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (adds documents) which is reversible (documents can be deleted or updated). While 'Add' suggests insertional rather than destructive behavior, the 'high' severity reflects that uncontrolled document insertion could bloat the database, cause performance degradation, or introduce malicious data at scale.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'pg_doc_add' and description 'Add one or more JSON documents to a collection' explicitly indicates creation/modification of data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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