WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why stack.report_issue needs a policy

The tool name suggests reporting an issue, which could be a Write operation (creating a report/ticket), but the description is completely empty. With no description to confirm behavior, and the name alone being ambiguous, confidence is very low. Reporting an issue is typically a low-severity write action, but without evidence I default to Other with low confidence.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'stack.report_issue'; description is empty and uninformative.
