WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_project needs a policy

This tool creates new project records, which is a reversible write operation. It modifies state by adding data but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or transfer funds. Severity is medium because project creation could spam or clutter the system, but the impact is limited to a single project object and can be undone via delete_project.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_project' and description 'Create a new project' indicate data creation with reversible side effects. The sibling tools show this is a todo/project management system where creates are paired with deletes.
