What add does on Meta Marketing API MCP Server

AI agents call add as a supporting operation in Meta Marketing API MCP Server workflows.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why add needs a policy

This tool performs a simple mathematical addition. Despite being on a Meta Marketing API server with high-impact sibling tools, this tool itself does nothing more than compute a sum. It falls into 'Other' as it is a stateless arithmetic utility with no read, write, execute, destructive, or financial implications.

From the tool's definition Tool description states only 'Add two numbers' — a pure arithmetic operation with no side effects, data access, or external interactions.
