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

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

## Why http_framework_test is rated High

The name implies executing HTTP-based tests against a target framework. In the context of a security recon console with siblings that generate and test payloads, this tool likely sends HTTP requests to probe or fingerprint web frameworks. The description is empty, reducing confidence, but the server context and naming convention strongly suggest active execution against external targets.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'http_framework_test' on a security recon server with sibling tools like 'advanced_payload_generation', 'ai_test_payload', and 'ai_vulnerability_assessment' suggests active HTTP framework probing/testing against targets."

## Use case

AI agents invoke http_framework_test to trigger actions in Pengstrike. 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 Pengstrike:

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