WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why mcp_register needs a policy

Based on the server description mentioning 'register' as one of its capabilities, this tool likely registers a new MCP server entry in some registry or catalog. Registration is a Write operation (creates a new record/entry). Severity is medium as registering a rogue server could affect discovery/ecosystem. Confidence is low because the tool description is empty, so this is inferred from context.
