WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why stape_container_power_ups needs a policy

The description mentions 'managing' power-ups, which typically encompasses read, create, update, and delete operations. Since the description is truncated and uninformative beyond 'managing', the most likely dominant action is Write (enabling/disabling/configuring power-ups). Without evidence of destructive or financial operations, Write is the best fit. Confidence is lowered due to the incomplete description.

From the tool's definition 'managing container power-ups' — implies CRUD operations on power-up features/add-ons for containers
