WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why update_notes_bulk needs a policy

This tool modifies (updates) existing Anki notes in batch, which is a Write operation as it creates or modifies data reversibly. The severity is medium because bulk updates affect multiple records and could cause widespread changes if misused by an AI agent, but the changes are not destructive (reversible via undo or subsequent updates) and do not cross into Execute, Financial, or Destructive categories.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it 'Update[s] multiple notes in a single batch operation' and accepts 'note_id and fields to update'. The word 'Update' indicates reversible modification of existing data.
