WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_order needs a policy

This tool creates new orders, which is a reversible write operation that modifies backend data (adds order records). It's not destructive (orders can be cancelled/modified), not financial (though it may eventually trigger payments, the tool itself just creates the order record), and not execute (no arbitrary code execution).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_order' on a restaurant backend server with order processing capabilities. The name and server context indicate this creates new order records.
