Description

Right now, the MCP's tool descriptions say the client agent MUST (!!!) use its tools, which is crazy. As a user, I like to have the MCP tools available but I don't want the tools telling me I MUST use them. The tool descriptions should only describe the tool capabilities, and not try to steer the behaviour of the client agent.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file or test; start by locating the MCP server's tool registration and description definitions. Review each affected description and ensure it states capabilities without directing the client agent's behavior, then verify the resulting descriptions no longer contain mandatory-use language.
