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

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

    "name": "crash",
    "arguments": {}

## Why crash is rated Low

The name 'crash' could imply a destructive or disruptive action (e.g., crashing a process or system), but without any description, we cannot confirm what this tool actually does. Given the ambiguity, it is classified as 'Other' with low confidence, though severity is rated high due to the potential blast radius if it does indeed crash a system or service.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'crash' but description is empty/uninformative, so behavior cannot be confirmed from metadata alone."

## Use case

AI agents call crash as a supporting operation in Mcp Test Servers workflows.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "crash": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "crash_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
