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

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

## Why bulk_set_properties is rated Medium

The tool creates or updates system properties in bulk, which is a reversible modification operation. While 'system properties' could have wide impact if misconfigured (hence 'high' severity for blast radius in misuse scenarios), the operation is reversible and does not delete data or commit financial transactions. Bulk operations increase risk relative to single-item writes, but the core category remains Write.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Create or update multiple system properties' — this is explicitly a Write operation that modifies data. The **[Write]** tag in the description confirms the classification."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
