WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why import_resume needs a policy

Import operations typically create or add data entries (Write category). While the description is empty, the name combined with the server's resume management context strongly suggests this tool accepts external resume data and stores it—a reversible write operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'import_resume' indicates data ingestion/import operation. Given the server's purpose (resume generation and management), import_resume likely creates or modifies resume data within the system.
