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

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

## Why create_kubernetes_node_pool is rated Medium

This tool creates new Kubernetes node pool resources, which modifies cloud infrastructure state in a reversible manner (node pools can be deleted or resized). While the description is empty, the tool name clearly indicates a Write operation. Severity is high because creating node pools affects production Kubernetes clusters and can incur costs, but it is not irreversible (Destructive) or financial in nature.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_kubernetes_node_pool' indicates creation of Kubernetes infrastructure resources. The verb 'create' is explicitly a Write action that establishes new cloud resources."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_kubernetes_node_pool": {
      "limits": [
        {

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
