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

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

## Why wait_minutes is rated High

This tool executes a blocking operation (sleep/delay) whose effects depend on the argument (number of minutes). While not destructive or financial, it can disrupt agent workflows by introducing arbitrary delays, potentially causing timeouts in dependent operations or preventing concurrent task completion.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'wait_minutes' with description 'Wait for specified minutes' indicates it triggers a time-delay operation that suspends execution flow."

## Use case

AI agents invoke wait_minutes 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": {
    "wait_minutes": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "wait_minutes_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
