WHAT IT DOES

What mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option does on MikroTik Cursor MCP

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option needs a policy

This tool creates network configuration options on a MikroTik router. While reversible (can be deleted), it modifies router state and could be misused to inject malicious DHCPv6 options affecting network clients. The blast radius is significant in a network context (potential client misconfiguration, traffic redirection), but it's not irreversible (Destructive) or commanding arbitrary execution (Execute).

From the tool's definition Creates a DHCPv6 option - the verb 'creates' indicates data creation/modification. The tool adds a new DHCPv6 configuration option to the router, which is a reversible write operation.
