Why get_model needs a policy

This is a read-only lookup/fetch operation that returns informational data about model specifications and pricing history. It has no ability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an agent could only retrieve potentially sensitive pricing data, which is a low-severity information disclosure risk at worst.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves and queries data about a single model: 'normalized pricing, capabilities (context window, vision, reasoning, tags), availability, reseller markup vs. upstream, and a price-history summary'.
