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

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

## Why updateFolder is rated Medium

The tool modifies folder properties (name, location, hierarchy) but does not delete data or trigger external operations. Changes are reversible—folders can be renamed back, moved to original locations, or reordered again. This fits the Write category (creates or modifies data reversibly).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Update a folder (rename/move/reorder)' and supports 'nesting changes via parentId'. These are reversible modifications to folder metadata and structure within a document/knowledge management system."

## Use case

AI agents use updateFolder 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": {
    "updateFolder": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "updatefolder_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
