- Server: Torch-to-Crown (`Diogenes187/Torch-to-Crown`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/torch-to-crown.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/Diogenes187/Torch-to-Crown

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

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

## Why cast_time_stop is rated High

cast_time_stop triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents invoke cast_time_stop to trigger actions in Torch-to-Crown. 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 Torch-to-Crown:

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