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

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

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

## Why queue_agent_run is rated High

This tool queues execution of a local agent, which is an external operation that runs code or triggers computational processes. While it doesn't directly execute user-provided code strings, it initiates an agent run whose behavior and side effects depend on task parameters and agent logic. This fits Execute rather than Write because it triggers active operations beyond data persistence.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Queue a local agent run for a task' which triggers execution of an agent process. The phrase 'local agent run' indicates external code/process execution whose effects depend on task configuration and agent implementation."

## Use case

AI agents invoke queue_agent_run to trigger actions in Todos. 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 Todos:

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