WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why brale_auto_configure needs a policy

While configuration changes are technically reversible (can be reconfigured), this tool initializes authentication state that enables all downstream financial operations on the Brale platform. The severity is high rather than critical because configuration itself doesn't directly move funds, but it establishes the foundation for all financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool automatically configures API client using credentials from environment variables (BRALE_CLIENT_ID and BRALE_CLIENT_SECRET). This modifies the state of the API client configuration, which is a reversible write operation.
