Why getInstallationSnapshot needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries snapshot data from a Knights of the Old Republic game installation. It has no side effects—it only reads and pages through in-memory data structures. The optional includeData parameter merely controls verbosity of returned information. There is no modification, deletion, execution, or financial impact. This is a straightforward Read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool description states "Page through a compacted in-memory installation snapshot" and "includeData=true for compacted per-resource documents". The verb "page through" and the focus on viewing snapshot data indicates retrieval without modification.
