What get_top_queries does on Fluid Postgres

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

Why get_top_queries needs a policy

The tool name indicates it retrieves information about top queries, which is a read operation (querying metadata/statistics). Despite the empty description, the sibling tools on this server include clearly read-only operations (list_*, explain_*, analyze_*), suggesting this tool follows the same pattern. No indicators of destructive, write, execute, or financial operations are present.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_top_queries' combined with context that this is a PostgreSQL MCP server with other sibling read-oriented tools (list_objects, list_schemas, analyze_db_health, explain_query).
