What database-column does on Faker MCP Server

AI agents call database-column to retrieve information from Faker MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why database-column needs a policy

This tool generates fake/random data (a database column name) using Faker.js. It has no side effects, does not interact with any real database, and simply returns a synthetic string value. Pure read/generation operation with minimal blast radius.
