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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "jobs_hold",
    "arguments": {}
  }

```

## Why jobs_hold is rated Medium

The tool appears to place jobs in a held state, which is a reversible modification of data (jobs can typically be un-held). This is less severe than Destructive (no permanent deletion) and less severe than Execute (not arbitrary code execution), making Write the appropriate category. Severity is medium because holding jobs could impact business operations and customer commitments, but the effect is reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'jobs_hold' suggests modifying job status/state (holding a job). The verb 'hold' indicates a reversible state change rather than deletion."

## Use case

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