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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "createProject",
    "arguments": {
      "name": "<name>",
      "workspace_id": "<workspace_id>"
    }
  }
}

## Why createProject is rated Medium

This tool creates new projects, which is a write operation that modifies data within a workspace. It is reversible (projects can be deleted), so it does not rise to Destructive level. The severity is medium rather than low because creating projects could impact workspace organization and collaboration, and the rate limit (30/min) suggests awareness of potential abuse.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Create a new project inside a workspace' and requires 'write on workspace + credential's `can_lifecycle` capability'. This is a reversible creation operation that modifies workspace state."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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