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

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

## Why omg_write_state is rated Medium

The tool writes or updates state data, merging with existing state rather than replacing or deleting it. This is a reversible write operation. Severity is medium because state changes can affect behavior of the OMG mode, but the description lacks specifics about what 'OMG mode' entails, reducing confidence slightly.

From the tool's own definition: "'Write or update state for a given OMG mode. Merges with existing state.'"

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
