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

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

## Why openclaw_run_skill is rated High

Running a skill (particularly in a system that controls PC operations, shell commands, and browser automation) is an Execute action—it triggers external operations whose effects depend on the skill argument provided. The high severity reflects that skill execution on a local machine could have wide-ranging side effects (file modification, system changes, network access).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'openclaw_run_skill' with verb 'run' indicates execution of arbitrary skills. Server context (LocalAnt) permits shell commands, browser automation, and coding agents."

## Use case

AI agents invoke openclaw_run_skill to trigger actions in LocalAnt. 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 LocalAnt:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "openclaw_run_skill": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "openclaw_run_skill_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "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`
