Why get_status_labels needs a policy

This tool retrieves project metadata (status labels/kanban columns) for informational purposes only. It has no capability to create, modify, delete, or execute operations. The pattern of discovering valid values before mutation is a classic read-only lookup operation. Severity is low as unauthorized access to status labels poses minimal security risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_status_labels' and description 'Get the kanban column / status labels for a project' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The description explicitly states it is used to 'discover' (query) valid status IDs, not modify them.
