WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why hetzner_reset_storage_box_password needs a policy

Resetting a password is a Write/credential-modification action — it changes an existing credential rather than deleting data irreversibly. However, severity is high because an agent misusing this tool could lock out legitimate users from their Storage Box, and the plaintext transmission in MCP logs creates a credential-exposure risk if logs are not properly secured.

From the tool's definition Reset the password for a Storage Box. Password policy: minimum 12 characters... the password parameter is transmitted as plaintext in the MCP protocol.
