Why create_tournament_squad needs a policy

This tool creates new tournament squad records, which is a Write operation (data creation). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, move money, or perform destructive actions. The blast radius is low since Pokémon tournament squad creation has no real-world consequences and is fully reversible through updates or deletions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a powerful squad of Pokémon for a tournament' and server description mentions 'manage tournament squads', indicating creation of new data structures that are reversible (squads can be modified, deleted, or recreated).
