WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why convert_docx_to_doc needs a policy

Document format conversion creates a new document in a different format, constituting a Write operation (data modification/creation). The action is reversible since the original DOCX remains intact and the output is just a format conversion. Severity is low because format conversion has minimal side effects and no destructive, financial, or execute-level impact.

From the tool's definition Tool converts document formats from DOCX/DFM to DOC, which modifies/transforms data format. Description: '將已攝入的 DOCX/DFM 文件轉為 DOC' (converts ingested DOCX/DFM files to DOC).
