WHAT IT DOES

What manage_directory_permissions does on Claude MCP Server Integration

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why manage_directory_permissions needs a policy

Managing directory permissions involves changing access control settings on the filesystem, which is an operation with significant security implications. It can grant or revoke read/write/execute access to directories, potentially exposing sensitive data or locking out legitimate users. This falls under Execute as it triggers external OS-level operations whose effects depend on arguments.
