WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_media_group needs a policy

This tool creates new data (a media group) in a reversible manner. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial transactions. The severity is medium because creating media groups could affect ad campaign configuration and reporting, with potential business impact if created incorrectly or maliciously, but the action itself is reversible via deletion or modification.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_media_group' and description 'Create a new media group' indicate a create operation that adds new data to the AdButler system.
