Why get_contract_transactions needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical transaction data from TronGrid indexed data without any side effects. It is a pure query operation that fetches and presents existing blockchain data. The severity is low because querying transaction history poses minimal risk—the data is already public on the blockchain and the operation cannot modify state or trigger financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Get transaction history' and 'aggregates transactions BY contract', with no mention of modifying, executing, or deleting data. Pagination parameters (limit, fingerprint) are characteristic of read-only query operations.
