WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why createPost needs a policy

This tool creates new content in WordPress, which is a write operation that modifies the system state. It is not destructive (posts can be deleted), not financial, and not a read-only query. The severity is medium because uncontrolled post creation could spam a WordPress site or create unwanted content, but the impact is limited to content and reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'createPost' and description 'WordPress에 새 게시글을 생성합니다' (creates a new post in WordPress) indicate content creation. This is a reversible write operation—posts can be updated or deleted afterward.
