What local_ydb_generate_schema does on Local Ydb

AI agents call local_ydb_generate_schema to retrieve information from Local Ydb without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why local_ydb_generate_schema needs a policy

The tool only generates and optionally validates DDL scripts (CREATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE, DROP TABLE) but explicitly does not apply any changes. It is purely a read/generation operation with no side effects on the database. The mention of DROP TABLE in the output is concerning but since nothing is executed, the category remains Read.

From the tool's definition Read-only structured YDB table DDL generator... returns the generated script... without applying changes
