WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_server_template needs a policy

This tool creates (writes) a new server template configuration, a reversible action. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. While templates could be misused to replicate malicious configurations across multiple servers, the immediate action is template creation, which is write-level.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_server_template' with description 'Create a reusable server template from current server configuration'. This creates a new template artifact based on existing server state, which is a reversible data creation operation.
