Why get_project_users needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries user data from a project without modifying, executing, deleting, or creating any resources. It has no side effects beyond returning existing information. The blast radius of misuse is low—an adversary could enumerate users and their access levels, which is an information disclosure risk but does not compromise data integrity or enable further damaging actions without additional tools.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project_users' and description explicitly states 'List all users with access to a specific MantisBT project. Returns an array of user objects.' The verb 'list' and 'returns' indicate data retrieval with no side effects.
