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

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

## Why set_metadata is rated Medium

The tool modifies metadata on an Identity Registry, which is a data mutation operation. While not destructive (changes can be reversed), it goes beyond read-only access. Severity is medium rather than high because metadata updates have limited blast radius compared to financial operations or destructive actions on this wallet server.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Set or update agent metadata key-value pair', which are write operations that create or modify data reversibly."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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