WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why products_bulk_action needs a policy

Bulk modification of products can create significant blast radius—affecting inventory, pricing, availability, or other attributes across many items at once. While categorized as Write (reversible modification), the impact is high due to scale. If this tool permitted bulk deletion, it would be Destructive, but the description emphasizes 'actions' generically without mentioning deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'products_bulk_action' combined with description 'Apply the same actions to many products in one request' indicates modification of multiple product records simultaneously.
