WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why json_numincrby needs a policy

This tool modifies existing numeric data by incrementing it, which is a reversible write operation. It changes stored values but does not delete or irreversibly destroy data. The context (Kendra Index MCP server) is unusual for a JSON numeric increment operation, which slightly lowers confidence, but the description clearly indicates a write/modify action.
