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

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

## Why skill_generate_from_prompt is rated Medium

This tool generates and persists code artifacts (skill skeletons) as output. While the skill is created in a disabled state (mitigating immediate execution risk), the act of saving a new skill is a Write operation—it creates reversible, structured data that can be modified or deleted. It does not execute code directly (hence not Execute) and does not destroy data (not Destructive).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool creates/generates a new skill skeleton that is saved (reversible write operation). Description explicitly states the output is 'saved DISABLED with declared permissions', indicating creation of persistent data/code artifact."

## Use case

AI agents use skill_generate_from_prompt 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:
