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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "register_tool",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why register_tool is rated Medium

This tool creates/modifies the tools registry by adding a new tool endpoint. While reversible (the registration could theoretically be removed), it affects system configuration and could enable or expose unintended capabilities if misused by an agent.

From the tool's own definition: "register_tool registers a new tool in the tools registry, which creates and adds a new entry to a system registry. This is a data modification operation that creates a new resource."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
