What to fix (4)

6 of 6 tool(s) carry no readOnlyHint/destructiveHint annotations.

Annotate read-only tools with {"readOnlyHint": true}. Agents and gateways can then run them without a confirmation prompt, and route around destructive ones. How to fix →

Tools: get_tutorial, list_categories, list_recent_tutorials, list_tutorials_by_category, request_tutorial and 1 more

3 parameter(s) across 3 tool(s) have no description.

Add a "description" to each parameter with its format and an example ("ISO 8601 date, e.g. 2026-10-17"). This is the commonest cause of wrong arguments on the first call. How to fix →

Tools: list_recent_tutorials, list_tutorials_by_category, search_tutorials

Negotiates MCP 2025-03-26. Structured output, tool output schemas and elicitation arrived in 2025-06-18.

Upgrade the MCP SDK and negotiate 2025-06-18 or newer. How to fix →

No tool declares an outputSchema.

Declare outputSchema and return structuredContent (MCP 2025-06-18+). Agents can then parse results without guessing, and chain tools reliably. How to fix →

Auto-fix: 5 corrected tool definitions

Paste-ready definitions with the problems above fixed. Changes marked verify need a human look. 3 tool(s) still need parameter descriptions written by someone who knows the API. All of them as JSON: /v1/readiness/mcp-registry%2Fcom.craftingstepbystep%2Ftutorials/fixes

Is the Craftingstepbystep Tutorials MCP server safe to connect to an AI agent?

Glimind scanned all 6 tool definitions for tool-poisoning patterns — hidden or invisible characters, instructions that override the model, concealment from the user, requests to read credential or MCP config files, conversation exfiltration and cross-tool shadowing — and found none. This checks what the server tells the model, not what its code does; review the source before granting access to sensitive data.
