Why manage_aws_glue_connections needs a policy

'Manage' typically encompasses create/update operations on cloud resources, which are reversible modifications. Without a description, it cannot be confirmed as Destructive (delete), but Write is the most likely classification. Confidence is reduced (0.6) due to missing description—it could potentially include destructive delete operations, but the verb 'manage' suggests write/update operations as primary functions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'manage_aws_glue_connections' with 'manage' prefix indicates modification of AWS Glue connection resources (create, update, or delete operations are typical for 'manage' verbs). No description available to confirm exact operations.

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "manage_aws_glue_connections": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "manage_aws_glue_connections_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
