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

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

## Why browser_save_pdf is rated Medium

The tool creates a new file (PDF) in the workspace, which is a Write operation. The severity is medium because while PDFs can be deleted, saving arbitrary web content as files could enable data exfiltration or workspace pollution if an AI agent saves sensitive pages without authorization. The confidence is high (0.9) because the description clearly indicates file creation with no destructive or irreversible aspects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name explicitly states 'save', and description indicates it 'saves' the current page as PDF into the workspace. This is a reversible file creation/write operation."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "browser_save_pdf": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "browser_save_pdf_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
