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

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

## Why wavexis_intercept_download is rated High

This tool intercepts network download requests, which involves hooking into browser network operations and can redirect, block, or capture file downloads. This is an active browser operation with external side effects (intercepting/modifying download behavior), placing it in the Execute category. Misuse could allow an AI agent to capture sensitive files or manipulate download flows, warranting high severity.

From the tool's own definition: "'Intercept a download matching a URL pattern'"

## Use case

AI agents invoke wavexis_intercept_download to trigger actions in Wavexis. 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 Wavexis:

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