Why get_user needs a policy

This tool retrieves user information without any side effects. It performs a read-only query operation. While user data can be sensitive, the tool itself does not modify, delete, or execute actions—it only fetches existing information. The severity is low because reading user profile/conversation metadata is a standard, non-destructive operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_user' and description 'Get information about a user who has a conversation with this bot' indicates retrieval of user data with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.
