WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create-binding-exchange-queue needs a policy

This tool creates a new binding, which modifies RabbitMQ's message routing topology. This is a reversible Write operation (bindings can be deleted via delete-binding-exchange-queue), not destructive or dangerous by itself. However, it has medium severity because an AI agent could create numerous bindings to redirect message flow unexpectedly, disrupt legitimate message routing, or cause operational chaos.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create-binding-exchange-queue' and description 'Create a binding from an exchange to a queue' indicate creation of a new routing configuration/relationship in RabbitMQ.
