SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Tools and tool orchestration for MCP require a standardized creation and startup registration flow. This Skill provides a clear pattern to define new tools as code, validate their parameters, and register them at startup to ensure consistent availability to agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Static tool definitions: Create tools as code and register them at startup.
  • Metadata-driven observability: Attach version, category, and tags for monitoring.
  • Use Case: Add a new CRM lookup tool and have it immediately available to agents.

Quick Start

Add a new tool file under packages/backend/src/services/tools and register it at startup.

FAQPage Schema
How do I register MCP tools for agent capabilities at startup?

To register MCP tools for agent capabilities, define tools as code under the backend tools directory and apply startup registration patterns. This ensures tools are consistently available to agents when the backend initializes.

What is the best way to automate tool registration for backend agent workflows?

Automating tool registration for backend workflows involves using a singleton toolRegistry pattern. This approach applies static tool definitions, validates structured parameters, and executes registration automatically during startup.

How does metadata validation work when defining new MCP tools?

Metadata validation for new MCP tools requires attaching structured parameters, version, category, and tags to each tool definition. The registration flow validates this metadata before adding the tool to the singleton toolRegistry.

Can I add a new backend tool and have it immediately available to agents?

Yes, you can add a new backend tool and make it immediately available to agents. Add a new tool file under the backend services tools directory and register it at startup to ensure consistent availability.

Do I need dependencies or external components to wire tools for agent capabilities?

No external dependencies or components are required to wire tools for agent capabilities. The tool-registration pattern operates independently using static tool definitions and a singleton toolRegistry to manage availability.

When should I use a singleton toolRegistry for MCP tool definitions?

Use a singleton toolRegistry for MCP tool definitions when your developer workflows require static tool definitions, consistent metadata, and repeatable startup registration across the backend to ensure structured parameter validation.
