MCPP-TOOL06: Abnormally long tool metadata¶
| Family | Tool surface |
| Default severity | low |
| Confidence | low |
| Mode | passive (default scan) |
| Spec revisions | all |
Why it matters¶
Very long descriptions are hard to review and are where hidden instructions usually live (pushed below the fold of client UIs).
Remediation¶
Keep descriptions short (a few sentences); move documentation elsewhere.
