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

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

## Why move_position is rated Medium

While 'move_position' modifies account state by transferring positions between user IDs, it is reversible (positions can be moved back). This makes it Write rather than Destructive. However, the high blast radius—transferring trading positions between accounts could redirect profits/losses or enable unauthorized account manipulation—warrants high severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'move_position' combined with description 'Move positions between UIDs (master API key only)' indicates modification of position ownership/location. The master API key requirement and cross-UID transfer imply significant account-level changes."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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