Registry, reverse proxy, and dev/observability hub for MCP servers
This server exposes only 3 trivial tools (echo, count_chars, whoami) with minimal real-world utility. All three have extremely short descriptions (10-34 chars, well below the 50-200 char LLM-optimized baseline). Tool schemas are present but sparse: echo and count_chars accept only a single 'text' string parameter with minimal context; whoami accepts no parameters. No output schemas are documented. The tools are read-only stubs used for testing the hub infrastructure itself, not production agent tools. This is a hub/proxy server, not a tool provider, the tools present are fixtures for e2e testing, not genuine agent capabilities.
Report how many characters the text has.
Return the text you were given.
Report the identity this server saw.
All tool descriptions are under 20 characters, far below the 50-200 char LLM-optimized baseline. 'Return the text you were given' (34 chars) and 'Report how many characters the text has' (39 chars) lack context for when/why an agent should call them.
No output schemas documented for any tool. LLMs cannot plan downstream calls or extract structured data without knowing what fields to expect.
whoami accepts no parameters (empty properties object). Input schema is minimal and provides no guidance on what the tool does or when to call it.
Tools are test fixtures (from tests/fixtures/ and e2e/mcp_stub/), not production agent tools. They exist to validate the hub's MCP protocol implementation, not to provide real capabilities.

No error handling guidance. Tools do not document what happens on invalid input (e.g., non-string text parameter) or how agents should recover.
