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

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

## Why create_data_visualization is rated Medium

This tool creates new components (baseCOMP) and wires up a data pipeline (data source → CHOP → chart TOP) within a TouchDesigner project. It is a Write operation — it adds new structures to the project reversibly, without executing arbitrary code, deleting data, or involving financial transactions. Misuse could clutter or corrupt the project network but effects are reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "'Build a data-driven visualization', 'Creates a new baseCOMP under' — the tool creates new nodes/components in the TouchDesigner project"

## Use case

AI agents use create_data_visualization to create or update resources in tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
