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

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

  "params": {
    "name": "addUserPublicKey",

## Why addUserPublicKey is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies user security settings (public key infrastructure for encryption). It is reversible (keys can be updated or removed) and has side effects limited to data modification rather than deletion or code execution. The medium severity reflects that misuse could enable unauthorized message interception or impersonation, but the impact is bounded to that user's encryption key state.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'addUserPublicKey' and description 'Add a public encryption key for a user chat messages' indicate creation/addition of cryptographic material to user accounts."

## Use case

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