44/44 tools missing one or more hints — dom_cdp (missing: idempotentHint); accessibility (missing: idempotentHint); input_event (missing: idempotentHint), +41 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 annotations match behaviour
2 read-only tools perform write/delete/exec — search_text (line 145: spawnSync("rg", args, { encoding: "utf8", maxBuffer: 8 * 1024 * 1024 })); workspace_snapshot (line 100: spawnSync("git", ["rev-parse", "--short", "HEAD"], { cwd: root, encoding: "utf8" }))
Either remove the readOnlyHint:true annotation, or remove the write/delete call from the tool handler.
Destructive tools are labelled
2 tools perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — write_file deletes at line 194 (fs.unlinkSync(tmp)); edit_file deletes at line 194 (fs.unlinkSync(tmp))
Add destructiveHint:true to any tool whose handler calls .delete(), .upsert(), .update(), unlink, rm, DELETE, DROP, REPLACE INTO, or any operation that overwrites existing data.
Descriptions match behaviour
1 tool describes read intent but its handler mutates — search_text (line 145: spawnSync("rg", args, { encoding: "utf8", maxBuffer: 8 * 1024 * 1024 }))
Rename the tool, rewrite the description, or move the side-effect into a separate clearly-named tool.
Tool inputs are validated
36/44 tool handlers declare input schemas (82%)
Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.
Shell command execution
14 child_process/subprocess calls in production code — runs shell commands (src/doctor.js:78, src/doctor.js:86, src/doctor.js:116)
Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.
Tool description accuracy
search_text: description implies read-only but handler writes/deletes/executes
Update tool descriptions to accurately reflect all capabilities — especially write, delete, or execute operations.
