Generated tools

MCP 2026 runtime

The server is stateless. Use server/discover, follow long-running operations through the Tasks extension, and answer input_required confirmations without changing the sealed requestState value.

Safety model

  1. 1
    Grant only the API scopes the agent needs
  2. 2
    Keep the API key server-side
  3. 3
    Fulfil the signed confirmation round for write and destructive tools
  4. 4
    Honor returned quota, retry, and circuit-breaker metadata
  5. 5
    Preserve request and trace identifiers for auditing
