Why get_entity needs a policy

This is a straightforward data retrieval tool that queries and returns structured metadata about theme park entities. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute commands, or trigger financial operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI could at worst retrieve excess theme park metadata, which poses no security or operational risk. Low severity is appropriate for read-only metadata access.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it retrieves metadata (name, type, location, timezone, parent ids) for theme park entities. Verbs used: 'get' and retrieves static descriptive information. No mention of creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations.
