Why validate_filter needs a policy

This tool is a validation helper that analyzes filter syntax against known schemas and operators. It retrieves or queries metadata about valid filters but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any data operations. The explicit purpose is to check correctness before actual API calls, making it a read-only analytical operation with minimal risk.

From the tool's definition Tool validates filter shape and field/operator names; it performs checks against schema/knowledge without modifying data, executing code, or triggering external side effects.
