WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why clone_campaign needs a policy

Cloning a campaign creates a new copy of campaign settings and configuration, which is a Write operation (data creation). It is reversible — the cloned campaign can be modified or deleted. It does not execute arbitrary operations (Execute), destroy existing data (Destructive), or move money (Financial).

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a copy of an existing campaign' — this creates new campaign data. The verb 'create' and action of duplicating a campaign configuration indicates reversible data creation.
