MCP Design Principles

Tools should be focused.

Prefer:

• One question
• One answer
• Explicit context

Avoid:

• Automatically sending entire repositories
• Automatically sending secrets
• Large uncontrolled context windows

All tools should support:

• Question
• Context
• Constraints
• Expected output format

Responses should be concise and actionable.
