What suggestStretchCharts does on Semiotic

AI agents call suggestStretchCharts to retrieve information from Semiotic without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why suggestStretchCharts needs a policy

suggestStretchCharts retrieves and analyzes data to provide visualization recommendations. It queries a dataset and an AudienceProfile to suggest chart types, returning comparative analysis (familiar vs. unfamiliar charts). This is purely informational with no side effects—no data is created, modified, deleted, or executed.

From the tool's definition Tool returns recommendations and suggestions; describes 'recommend', 'returns charts', and 'paired with...rationale' — all read-only analytical outputs with no modification, deletion, or execution of code/commands.
