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

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

## Why smart_deploy is rated High

The tool name 'smart_deploy' suggests it executes deployment logic in a cyber range environment. Given the server's purpose (lifecycle management, scenario deployment, template creation), this tool likely triggers external operations whose effects depend on deployment arguments (which ranges, scenarios, or configurations to deploy).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool named 'smart_deploy' in a cyber range management system; sibling tools include 'apply_blueprint_to_range', 'apply_adversary_profile', and 'abort_range_deployment', indicating this tool triggers deployment operations."

## Use case

AI agents invoke smart_deploy to trigger actions in Ludus FastMCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "smart_deploy": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "smart_deploy_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
