WHAT IT DOES

What upgrade_project_mcp does on MCP SAPUI5 Server

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why upgrade_project_mcp needs a policy

This tool modifies project artifacts by upgrading them to a new layout version. The mention of 'rollback-safe patching' and 'dry-run' implies the changes are reversible, placing it in Write rather than Destructive. However, it has high severity because it modifies potentially many project files across an entire project, and misuse could cause significant disruption even if technically reversible.
