Why getERC1155BatchBalances needs a policy

This tool retrieves balance information from a blockchain contract without modifying any data, executing code, or committing financial transactions. It is purely informational, similar to the sibling tool erc1155_balanceOf. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an attacker could only enumerate account balances, which is often public information on blockchain.

From the tool's definition Tool description: 'Get balances for multiple token IDs or owners in an ERC1155 contract' — the word 'Get' and 'balances' indicate a read-only query operation with no side effects. ERC1155 balance queries do not modify state or execute transactions.
