MCP Builder

Build MCP servers around user workflows, not raw API endpoints.

Workflow

1. Read the target API docs and identify the workflows an agent must complete end to end.
2. Design a small tool surface with high-signal outputs, clear identifiers, and actionable errors.
3. Implement shared infrastructure first: auth, request helpers, pagination, truncation, and formatting.
4. Add tool schemas and docstrings that make correct usage obvious.
5. Evaluate the server with realistic tasks before expanding scope.

Principles

• Prefer workflow tools over thin endpoint wrappers.
• Return concise, high-signal responses by default.
• Use human-readable identifiers whenever possible.
• Make error messages corrective: tell the agent what to try next.
• Design for limited context and large datasets.
