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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,

  "params": {
    "name": "snow_create_queue",
    "arguments": {}

## Why snow_create_queue is rated Medium

This tool creates a new queue resource in ServiceNow, which is a reversible write operation. While it affects how work items are routed and assigned, it does not delete data, execute arbitrary code, move money, or destroy resources.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'snow_create_queue' and description 'Define an assignment queue' — creates and persists a new queue configuration (sys_queue) in ServiceNow with conditional filters and group assignments."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json

  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "snow_create_queue": {
      "limits": [
        {
