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

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

## Why patch_lines is rated Medium

Based on the tool name 'patch_lines' and the server's documented purpose of providing 'file editing' capabilities, this tool most likely creates or modifies file content reversibly—a Write operation. While patching could theoretically be destructive if it overwrites without backup, the term 'patch' typically implies targeted, reversible modifications.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'patch_lines' suggests modifying text content line-by-line, consistent with the server's stated capability of 'file editing'. No description provided."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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