Why category_get needs a policy

This tool retrieves category data by ID from the Voog CMS ecommerce API. It performs a query-only operation with no ability to modify, delete, or execute code. The Read category applies to all retrieval operations regardless of the data domain (ecommerce, content, etc.). Severity is low because reading category metadata poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'category_get' and description 'Get a single category' indicate a retrieval operation. The HTTP method is GET, which is idempotent and read-only. No side effects or data modification.
