Why merge_text_documents needs a policy

This tool modifies data by combining multiple documents into one, creating new document content. This is a reversible Write operation—the original documents can theoretically be recovered and the merge undone. It is not Destructive because the original inputs are not irreversibly deleted (only merged), not Execute because no arbitrary code/commands are run, and not Financial.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'merge_text_documents' and description 'Merge multiple text documents into a single document' indicate creation/combination of document content. Merging creates a new modified document by combining inputs.
