What parse_asn1_definition does on PKI Studio MCP

AI agents call parse_asn1_definition to retrieve information from PKI Studio MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why parse_asn1_definition needs a policy

The tool takes an ASN.1 definition as input, parses it, and returns a JSON schema representation along with type names. This is a read/transform operation with no side effects, no data persistence, and no external interactions. Misuse potential is minimal.

From the tool's definition 'Parse a supported ASN.1 definition subset into ASN.1 Instance Builder Schema Model JSON and return defined type names' — purely parsing/reading input and returning structured data
