WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why insertTable needs a policy

This tool creates/modifies document structure reversibly by inserting a table. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. While it modifies a document, the action is reversible (the table can be deleted). Severity is medium because unintended table insertion could obscure or disrupt document content, but the impact is localized to a single document and easily undone.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'insertTable' and description 'Inserts a new table with the specified dimensions at a given index' indicate creation of new content within a document.
