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

## Why wavexis_set_locale is rated High

This tool modifies the browser's runtime environment by overriding its locale setting. It triggers an external browser operation that changes behavior for subsequent actions, fitting the Execute category. Misuse could cause locale-dependent functionality to behave unexpectedly, but the blast radius is limited to browser session behavior.

From the tool's own definition: "Override the browser locale"

## Use case

AI agents invoke wavexis_set_locale 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_set_locale": {
      "limits": [
        {

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
