- Homepage: https://github.com/joshuahickscorp/visionmcp
- Risk category: Execute (High 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": "workflow.continue_autonomous",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why workflow.continue_autonomous is rated High

The tool autonomously executes actions based on evidence and decision logic, which could modify system state or trigger side effects. While described as 'safe' and bounded by 'authority boundaries,' the Execute category applies because the tool runs code/operations whose actual effects depend on what action is determined to be 'next' at runtime.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'execute' and description states 'Execute the next safe evidence-derived action' — this triggers external operations whose effects depend on runtime arguments and context."

## Use case

AI agents invoke workflow.continue_autonomous to trigger actions in Visionmcp. 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 Visionmcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "workflow.continue_autonomous": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "workflow.continue_autonomous_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
