Why binance_us_system_status needs a policy

This tool retrieves system status information without side effects. It is a simple query operation that returns maintenance state, analogous to a health check endpoint. Despite requiring API key authentication, the action itself is read-only and poses minimal risk if misused—an agent querying system status repeatedly would have negligible impact.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Check[s] if Binance.US system is under maintenance' and returns status values (0 = normal, 1 = system maintenance). The operation is a status query with no data modification, creation, deletion, code execution, or financial impact.
