Why mikrotik_remove_route needs a policy

Removing routes from a routing table is an irreversible operation that permanently deletes network configuration. Unlike Write operations (which create or modify reversibly), route removal cannot be restored without manual reconfiguration. If an AI agent removes critical routes, it could cause network outages, disconnection of sites, or service disruption.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'remove' and description states 'Removes a route from MikroTik routing table' — this irreversibly deletes routing configuration. Routing changes cannot be easily undone and can disrupt network traffic flow.
