Why notion_action needs a policy

The tool spans multiple categories: Read (search, get, query) and Write (create, update). Per the rules, the most severe applicable category is chosen. Since it can create and update Notion pages, it qualifies as Write. There is no evidence of irreversible deletion or financial operations, so Write is the highest applicable category.
