All four hints declared on every tool

10/16 tools missing one or more hints — read_file (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint); read_text_file (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint); read_media_file (missing: destructiveHint, idempotentHint), +7 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

9/16 tools referenced in tests (56%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.
