What to fix (5)

8 of 8 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: estimate_procedure_cost, find_specialists_by_procedure, get_clinic, get_procedure, list_procedures and 3 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: find_specialists_by_procedure, quote_for_case, search_clinics

Negotiates MCP 2024-11-05. 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 →

In the last 30 days: 0 tool(s) removed and 2 schema change(s).

Add new tools or optional parameters instead of renaming or removing; deprecate first (say so in the description) and remove later. Agents cache tool contracts. How to fix →

Auto-fix: 7 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%2Finfo.vetclinic%2Fdirectory/fixes

Is the Vetclinic Directory MCP server safe to connect to an AI agent?

Glimind scanned all 8 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.
