WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why moltbook_downvote_post needs a policy

Downvoting is a write operation that modifies platform state (vote counts, user voting record) but is fully reversible—users can change their vote or remove it. It does not delete data, execute code, move money, or cause irreversible damage. The blast radius is minimal: at worst, a post receives an undeserved downvote that can be undone.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'downvote a post' action, which modifies the voting state of content on the platform. Voting is a reversible modification operation (the vote can be changed or removed).
