WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why enqueue_download needs a policy

This tool creates a new download job and adds it to a processing queue. It modifies system state by creating job records and scheduling work, which is a reversible write operation. While it triggers downstream processing (downloading audio), the act of enqueueing is itself a write/create action.

From the tool's definition "Create or dedupe a job and enqueue it for processing"
