Without tables it reaches no table; tables takes the shape shown in roles.setPermissions. Other roles are untouched. Returns the role and its revision; check what it allows with rules.simulate, without adding anyone.

Requires the schema:write scope. Operation roles.create. MCP tool roles_create. CLI: grid82 roles create (npx grid82).
