What generateEmbeddingLocal does on Medical MCP Server

AI agents use generateEmbeddingLocal to create or update resources in Medical MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Medical MCP Server environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why generateEmbeddingLocal needs a policy

The tool generates embeddings and persists them to MongoDB, constituting a write operation that reversibly modifies data. While this does not delete or overwrite existing data irreversibly, it creates new records in the database.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'store it in MongoDB', which is an explicit write operation that creates/modifies data in a database.
