Name & Describe a Tool Well
Write descriptions the model can actually act on.
The Model Reads First
Before an AI ever runs your tool, it reads its name and description to decide whether this tool fits the task. 🧭
Name It Like a Verb
A good MCP tool name says what it does at a glance, like get_weather or send_email. Short, action-first, no surprises.
