"""Risk classes for tools — the intrinsic side-effect category that drives permission
gating (and, later in Phase 2, unattended Inbox routing).
This replaces the hardcoded ``WRITE_TOOLS`` / ``SHELL_TOOL`` name sets the permission engine
used to carry inline: risk is now a declared property a single ``classify`` reads.
A tool's *effective* risk = an optional user-local override (Phase 2) ?? the base
classification here. Built-in vetted tools are classified by name; anything else falls back
to its aisuite metadata (``requires_approval`` → external) or is treated as read.
