WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

The tool modifies data (Update) but does not irreversibly delete it, so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the semantic content of the name clearly indicates a data modification operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'UpdateAHOSequenceStore' contains 'Update', indicating modification of data. 'AHO' likely refers to AWS Health Omics (a genomics service), and 'SequenceStore' is a data structure for storing genomic sequences.
