Why generate_recipes needs a policy

The tool generates (produces) recipe recommendations based on existing data. It does not modify, delete, execute code, or trigger any financial operations. It is a read/query-style operation that returns computed content without side effects. Slight uncertainty exists because 'generate' could imply side effects, but the description indicates it only tailors output based on household profile data.
