## Why agents is rated Low

The description is empty and uninformative, making it impossible to determine what this tool does with confidence. The name 'agents' in the context of an iTerm MCP server with AI orchestration capabilities could relate to managing AI agents, but without evidence of specific actions (read, write, execute, etc.), classification defaults to Other. Confidence is low due to lack of description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'agents' with an empty description. No functional details are available."

## Use case

AI agents call agents as a supporting operation in iTerm MCP workflows.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "agents": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "agents_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
