WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why set_product_hidden needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies data reversibly by changing a product's search visibility flag. It is Write rather than Destructive because the change is not permanent/irreversible—the flag can be toggled back to show the product again. While it affects e-commerce operations (potentially hiding products from customers), it does not delete data or commit financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it toggles the 'hidden_manual' flag for a product, which modifies the visibility state of product data in search results. The verb 'toggle' indicates a reversible state change operation.
