Tool Discovery System

This MCP server uses a discovery-based tool loading pattern to reduce context overhead. Instead of loading all 35+ tools upfront, only the discover_tools meta-tool is exposed. Use it to find and load the specific tools needed for your task.

Quick Reference

# List all categories
discover_tools({ mode: "list_categories" })

# Browse tools in a category
discover_tools({ mode: "browse", category: "jira" })

# Search by natural language
discover_tools({ mode: "search", query: "send slack message" })

# Search by intent
discover_tools({ mode: "search", intent: "check team blockers" })

Tool Categories

3. Review returned tool schemas
4. Execute the discovered tools
