WHAT IT DOES

What blur_bilateral does on farshid-mcp-imageProcessing

AI agents use blur_bilateral to create or update resources in farshid-mcp-imageProcessing — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your farshid-mcp-imageProcessing environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why blur_bilateral needs a policy

A bilateral filter is an image processing operation that modifies image data by applying an edge-preserving blur. It reads an input image and writes/outputs a modified version. It does not delete data, execute code, or involve financial transactions. The modification is reversible since the original image can be retained. Severity is low as misuse is limited to producing a filtered image.
