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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "mikrotik_disable_filter_rule",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why mikrotik_disable_filter_rule is rated Medium

Disabling a firewall filter rule modifies the router's security posture reversibly (the rule still exists but is inactive). This is a Write operation since it changes state without permanently deleting anything. However, the severity is high because disabling firewall rules can expose the network to traffic that was previously blocked, potentially allowing unauthorized access or attacks.

From the tool's own definition: "Disables a firewall filter rule"

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
