WHAT IT DOES

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why fcrm_create_tag needs a policy

Creating a tag is a reversible write operation that adds metadata to a system. It has minimal blast radius—tags are typically non-critical, can be easily deleted or renamed, and do not affect core data integrity, user access, or financial systems. The operation is explicitly generative (create), not destructive (no delete/drop language), not executable (no command/code execution), and not financial.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'fcrm_create_tag' and description 'Create a new FluentCRM tag' indicate a creation operation that adds a new taxonomy term without destroying or modifying existing data.
