6// The served surface (capsid/research/design-mcp-servers.md section 3). Capsid serves 14 whole-job tools
7// on /mcp and /ops/mcp, and Capsid Admin 8 on its own route for the administrator
8// alone (src/mcp-handler.ts). Each tool is named {service}_{action}_{resource}
9// (ruling rule 5) and carries one honest set of hints (rule 6, src/tool-annotations.ts).
10//
11// A tool with more than one action takes `action`, which picks the operation that does
12// the work (./operations). Its input schema is every operation's arguments, each
13// optional unless every action needs it; the operation's own schema is applied when the
14// action runs, so an argument an action needs is still refused when it is missing. An
15// operation argument the action fixes (manage_pr's merge or close, cloudflare_config's
16// read) is set by the action, not exposed.
17//
18// Every registration is a literal call on the server, as test/invariants.test.ts,
19// test/tool-annotations.test.ts and test/counts.test.ts read them, and goes through the
20// registrar (src/scope.ts guardRegistrations), which checks the tool and its action.
