-      positives will overwhelm alert channels.
+    - |
+      Legitimate batch operations (data migration, bulk ingest, scheduled cleanup jobs) may legitimately emit > 100 tool calls in a minute. Mitigation: operators tag scheduled batch jobs with attributes.policy_exemption="batch_job" and add a filter to the rule's behavioral.filter block.
+    - |
+      The 100 / minute threshold is a default. Operators with high- throughput agents (e.g., search/recommendation systems doing hundreds of vector lookups per request) MUST tune the threshold to their baseline before deployment; otherwise base-rate false positives will overwhelm alert channels.
