Why get_sleep_time needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical sleep metrics from the Oura Ring API without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational and poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be unauthorized access to personal health data already available through API authentication, which is a confidentiality concern but not an operational or financial risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_sleep_time' and description 'Get sleep time data including bedtime and wake time' indicate data retrieval only. The verb 'Get' and the passive phrasing 'sleep time data' confirm query/fetch semantics with no modification or side effects.
