WHAT IT DOES

What suggest_mitigations does on Project Management AI Analysis

AI agents use suggest_mitigations to create or update resources in Project Management AI Analysis — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Project Management AI Analysis environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why suggest_mitigations needs a policy

The tool generates and suggests mitigation strategies, implying it produces new content/recommendations. 'Generate' and 'suggest' imply creation of new artifacts (strategies, ratings, implementation steps). This is most consistent with Write (creates data/output). It does not execute code, delete data, or move money.
