2/43 tools have annotations
Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.
All four hints declared on every tool
43/43 tools missing one or more hints — document_smart_search (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); document_quick_summary (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); document_compare_insights (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +40 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
3 tools describe read intent but their handlers mutate — create_document (line 221: document_properties.eval()); create_folder (line 111: folder_properties.eval()); update_folder (line 531: folder_properties.eval())
Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.
Tests exist
No test files found
Add tests that exercise each declared tool.
