WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why tdx-asset-patch needs a policy

This tool modifies asset records in TeamDynamix, but does so reversibly (updates can be undone or corrected). It is not Destructive because patching is not deletion or irreversible overwriting. It is not Execute because it does not run arbitrary code or trigger external operations with argument-dependent side effects. It falls squarely into Write: creates or modifies data reversibly.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'tdx-asset-patch' and description 'Partial update of a TDX asset' indicate a reversible modification operation. PATCH is an HTTP verb used for partial updates that do not destroy data.
