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

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

## Why start_team_collaboration is rated High

This tool triggers execution of external agent operations (team collaboration workflows) based on user input. While the effects are somewhat bounded by the collaborative agent framework, the actual operations performed depend entirely on the task description provided, making it an Execute category tool.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Start a collaborative session with a team of agents' and 'the team will work together' on a user-described task. This initiates execution of agent workflows whose effects depend on the task description provided as an argument."

## Use case

AI agents invoke start_team_collaboration to trigger actions in Automagik Tools. 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 Automagik Tools:

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