WHAT IT DOES

What karea_unlink_resource_from_task does on Karea

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why karea_unlink_resource_from_task needs a policy

This tool unlinks (removes an association between) a resource and a task, but explicitly does not delete either entity. This is a reversible modification of relational data, making it a Write operation. Since no data is permanently destroyed and the link can be re-created, severity is low.

From the tool's definition 'Remove the link between a resource and a task. Does not delete either side.'
