Why ai_quality_check needs a policy

This tool performs analysis and quality assessment of translations without side effects. It reads input data and returns computed metrics (scores 1-100, level classifications, comments) but does not create, modify, delete, or persist any data. The explicit note that results are not persisted confirms no write operations occur. Usage tracking is metadata collection, not a data modification.

From the tool's definition Tool 'ai_quality_check' accepts source text and translations, returns quality scores, levels, and comments. Explicitly states 'Does NOT persist results' and is for checking/analyzing only. No modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.
