WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_ecs_infrastructure needs a policy

The tool name implies creating ECS (Elastic Container Service) infrastructure, which is a Write operation that provisions cloud resources. However, the description is empty, lowering confidence. Creating cloud infrastructure can have significant blast radius if misused (unintended costs, security misconfigurations), warranting high severity. Since description is uninformative, confidence is reduced.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_ecs_infrastructure' suggests creation of ECS infrastructure resources
