name: create-override description: Create a governed session override for a policy that would otherwise deny — mandatory justification, server-clamped TTL, blocked for critical-risk policies

Use this skill when a user has been blocked by a non-critical policy and wants to bypass it for the rest of their session with a documented justification.

Before calling this skill, the user MUST provide:

1. policy_id — the ID of the policy to override (typically surfaced by explain-decision)
2. policy_type — "static" (system / dynamic registry policy) or "dynamic"
3. override_reason — free-text justification (1-500 chars). This is mandatory and recorded in the audit trail.

Optional:

• tool_signature — restrict the override to a specific tool name (recommended; narrower scope)
• ttl_seconds — requested duration. Server clamps to [60, 86400]; default 3600 (1h).

Call the create_override MCP tool. The platform will reject the request (HTTP 403) when:

• The policy is critical-risk (no override permitted)
• The policy has allow_override: false
• The justification is missing or empty

Surface the response's id, expires_at, and any clamped flag (set when the requested TTL was clamped down). Tell the user: "Override <id> active until <expires_at> — the next attempt at the blocked tool will succeed within that window."
