WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create-cache-cluster needs a policy

The 'create' prefix indicates this tool creates a new cache cluster resource, which is a reversible Write operation (the cluster can be deleted). Creating cloud infrastructure has a high severity due to potential cost implications, resource consumption, and configuration errors that could impact system performance or security.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create-cache-cluster'; the verb 'create' indicates resource provisioning that modifies infrastructure state. The tool description is empty, limiting direct evidence from documentation.
