Why list_calendars needs a policy

This tool performs a read-only query operation that retrieves calendar information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It has minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent, as it only exposes calendar metadata that the authenticated user already has access to. The severity is low because listing calendars does not affect any data or trigger external operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_calendars' and description 'List all calendars in the user account' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.
