WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why generate_narrative needs a policy

This tool creates and outputs generated narrative content, which qualifies as a Write operation since it produces new data. However, since narrative generation is typically reversible and does not directly modify critical project data structures or execute arbitrary code, it is classified as Write rather than Execute.

From the tool's definition Tool generates narrative content, which creates new data artifacts in the system. The description explicitly states 'Generate... narrative' indicating content creation rather than mere retrieval.
