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

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

## Why write_sheet is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data in Google Sheets, which is reversible (data can be edited or undone). It does not delete data irreversibly, execute arbitrary code, or commit financial transactions. The medium severity reflects that unauthorized writes to shared sheets could corrupt data or disrupt workflows, but the impact is limited to one service and reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'write_sheet' and description states 'Write data to Google Sheets'. The verb 'write' explicitly indicates data modification."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
