What close_door_or_trapdoor does on Minecraft Survival MCP Server

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why close_door_or_trapdoor needs a policy

This tool triggers an in-game action (closing a door or trapdoor) that affects the Minecraft world state and pathing behavior. It is an external operation with real effects in the game environment. While reversible (doors can be reopened), it is more than a read and qualifies as Execute since it triggers a physical interaction in the game world. Blast radius is low as it only affects door state and local pathing.

From the tool's definition Close a door/trapdoor at coordinates or nearest one in range. Useful to secure areas and control villager/pathing flows.
