## Facts

- Tool: `swift_package_init`
- Server: XcodeBazelMCP (`xcodebazelmcp/xcodebazelmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/xcodebazelmcp-xcodebazelmcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/XcodeBazelMCP/XcodeBazelMCP
- Risk category: Write (Medium 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": "swift_package_init",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why swift_package_init is rated Medium

This tool creates new files and directory structure for a Swift package. It's a Write operation as it creates new data (package files, configuration) in the filesystem. While it modifies the filesystem, it's reversible by deleting the created files. Severity is medium as misuse could overwrite or pollute a directory with unwanted package scaffolding.

From the tool's own definition: "Initialize a new Swift package in the given directory"

## Use case

AI agents use swift_package_init 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": {
    "swift_package_init": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "swift_package_init_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`
