Select the right MCP tool by applying a strict five-tier hierarchy that routes file operations, code search, and notebooks to specialized components before falling back to the CLI. This deterministic routing enforces primary and fallback tool definitions to prevent decision drift.

A five-tier hierarchy for tool selection is a strict priority policy that validates coding operations against a deterministic routing sequence. It defines primary, fallback, and prohibited tools across file ops and CLI commands to reduce tool misuse and decision drift.

Enforce deterministic tool routing for CLI fallbacks by validating every automation operation against a five-tier policy. This approach defines primary and prohibited MCP tools, ensuring fallbacks only trigger when higher-priority specialized tools are unavailable.

Yes, the five-tier tool-selection policy works with notebooks and CLI commands by validating operations against a deterministic hierarchy. It routes tasks to specialized MCP components based on context and operation type, treating CLI as a fallback tier.

The best way to prevent tool misuse is to enforce a five-tier tool-selection policy that validates all coding operations against deterministic routing rules. Defining primary, fallback, and prohibited tools eliminates inconsistent decision drift across the team.

You should not use automated tool routing when a task requires manual intervention outside the defined five-tier hierarchy, or when the deterministic policy lacks a specialized MCP component for a unique operation type. Strict validation prohibits non-compliant tool usage.
