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

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

## Why bazel_watchos_run is rated High

This tool performs code execution by building and launching a watchOS app. While the description is truncated, the key verbs 'build' and 'launch' indicate it runs external operations whose effects depend on arguments (target selection, build flags, etc.). This falls under Execute rather than Write because it invokes build systems and app launch mechanisms with unpredictable real-world consequences.

From the tool's own definition: "'Build and launch a Bazel watchOS application' — the tool executes a build process and launches an application, which are operations that trigger external side effects on the watchOS platform."

## Use case

AI agents invoke bazel_watchos_run to trigger actions in XcodeBazelMCP. 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 XcodeBazelMCP:

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