- Homepage: https://github.com/XcodeBazelMCP/XcodeBazelMCP

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

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

## Why bazel_ios_set_defaults is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies session defaults, which is a reversible configuration change. It falls under Write category because it alters stored settings. Severity is medium because misconfiguration of build defaults could affect multiple subsequent builds or agent behaviors, but changes are typically reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'bazel_ios_set_defaults' indicates it modifies configuration defaults. The description is incomplete ('Set session defaults so agents don\') but the verb 'set' and 'defaults' clearly indicate state modification rather than read-only behavior."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "bazel_ios_set_defaults": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "bazel_ios_set_defaults_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`
