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
108/108 tools missing one or more hints — start_google_auth (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); func (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_script_projects (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +105 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.
Tool handlers catch errors
Only 13/105 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (12%)
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.
No access to sensitive paths
Reads sensitive paths: credentials, .credentials, credentials
Remove reads of sensitive system paths. If you genuinely need them, document why in the README.
