WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why odoo_validate_view_patch needs a policy

The name suggests validation of a view patch in Odoo, which typically involves checking or applying a patch to a UI view. 'Validate' could mean a read/check operation or a write/apply operation. Given sibling tools like 'odoo_apply_view_patch_safe' exist separately, this is likely a validation/check step (Read), but it could also write/commit a patch. With no description, confidence is low.
