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
6/6 tools missing one or more hints — earshot_stats (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); earshot_leads (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); earshot_ask (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +3 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 test coverage
Only 0/6 tools referenced in tests (0%)
Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.
Secrets stay with their owner
5 secret/sensitive values flow into network calls (GEMINI_API_KEY → dynamic, LLM_API_KEY → dynamic)
Audit where credentials are sent. A NOTION_TOKEN should only reach api.notion.com — never a third-party host.
