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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "hives_invoke_deployment",
    "arguments": {
      "body": {},
      "project_id": "<project_id>",
      "deployment_id": "<deployment_id>"
    }
  }
}

## Why hives_invoke_deployment is rated High

hives_invoke_deployment triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (body.path) · Accepts raw HTML/template content (body)

## Use case

AI agents invoke hives_invoke_deployment to trigger actions in Genesis. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "hives_invoke_deployment": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "hives_invoke_deployment_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
