What run_connectors does on PriceAtlas MCP Server

AI agents invoke run_connectors to trigger actions in PriceAtlas MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why run_connectors needs a policy

This tool actively executes multiple external connector integrations (Open Food Facts, Kroger, Walmart, etc.) and persists the fetched data to a database. It spans Execute (running connectors, triggering external network operations) and Write (saving results to DB). Since Execute > Write in severity ordering, it is classified as Execute.

From the tool's definition 'Run all price data connectors... to fetch fresh prices for a product... Saves results to the database' — triggers external operations (scraping/API calls to multiple retailers) and writes results to a database.
