WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why ollama_enqueue_generate_job needs a policy

The tool enqueues/creates a job in a queue system, which is a Write operation (creating a new queue entry). The description explicitly states 'no execution in MVP', ruling out Execute. The blast radius is medium since queued jobs could eventually trigger generation workloads, but the tool itself only creates a queue entry.
