## Facts

- Tool: `worker.register`
- Server: Visionmcp (`joshuahickscorp/visionmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/visionmcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/joshuahickscorp/visionmcp
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

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

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

## Why worker.register is rated Medium

This tool registers (creates) a new worker entry in the system and issues an authentication token. It is a Write operation as it creates a new record/enrollment. The severity is medium because issuing tokens could be misused for unauthorized access if an agent registers rogue workers, but it does not directly delete data or execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's own definition: "Enroll a capability-advertising worker and return its token exactly once"

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "worker.register": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "worker.register_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
