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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "edit_issue_comment",
    "arguments": {}

## Why edit_issue_comment is rated Medium

Editing an issue comment is a Write operation because it modifies data reversibly. A user or AI agent could change the content of a comment, which affects visibility and understanding of issue discussions, but the change can be undone by editing again. This is less severe than Destructive (which would be irreversible deletion) or Execute (which would run code), but more impactful than Read operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Edit a comment on an issue', which modifies existing data (the comment text) in a reversible manner. The action updates but does not delete or execute code."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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