GIT_CONFIG_GLOBALTool annotations
No tools have read-only/destructive annotations
Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.
All four hints declared on every tool
11/11 tools missing one or more hints — format_git_show (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); format_git_show_cli (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); format_git_log (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +8 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.
For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.
Descriptions match behaviour
1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — compare_files (line 858: diff_output = subprocess.run()
Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.
Tool handlers catch errors
9/11 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (82%)
Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.
Tests exist
No test files found
Add tests that exercise each declared tool.
Tool description accuracy
compare_files: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes
Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.
