What osm_generate_aoi does on SkyFi MCP Server

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

Why osm_generate_aoi needs a policy

It is a data generation/calculation operation with no side effects—it produces a bounding polygon or shape for use in subsequent searches. No data is written, deleted, or executed. Similar to osm_create_bounding_box, it is a read/compute operation.
