-# MCP Tool Authoring
-
-Build type-safe MCP tools for OpenCode plugins using the `@opencode-ai/plugin` SDK.
-
-## Tool Definition Pattern
-
-Define tools with `tool()` helper from `@opencode-ai/plugin`:
-
-```typescript
-import { tool } from "@opencode-ai/plugin";
-
-export const my_tool = tool({
-  description: "Clear, concise description (one sentence, action-focused)",
-  args: {
-    required_arg: tool.schema.string().describe("What this arg does"),
-    optional_arg: tool.schema.number().optional().describe("Optional arg"),
-  },
-  async execute(args, ctx) {
-    // Implementation
-    return "Success message or JSON output";
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Key rules:**
-
-- Description: Imperative form, under 120 chars. Start with verb.
-- Args: Use `tool.schema` for validation (Zod-like API)
-- Execute: Return string or JSON-serializable value
-- Context (`ctx`): Contains `sessionID`, `messageID`, `agent` for state tracking
-
-## Schema Definition
-
-Use `tool.schema` for type-safe argument validation:
-
-### Primitives
-
-```typescript
-tool.schema.string(); // string
-tool.schema.number(); // number
-tool.schema.boolean(); // boolean
-```
-
-### Constraints
-
-```typescript
-tool.schema.string().min(1); // non-empty string
-tool.schema.number().min(0).max(10); // range validation
-tool.schema.number().int(); // integer only
-tool.schema.enum(["a", "b", "c"]); // enum values
-```
-
-### Complex Types
-
-```typescript
-// Array
-tool.schema.array(tool.schema.string());
-
-// Object
-tool.schema.object({
-  name: tool.schema.string(),
-  age: tool.schema.number().optional(),
-});
-
-// Nested
-tool.schema.array(
-  tool.schema.object({
-    title: tool.schema.string(),
-    priority: tool.schema.number().min(0).max(3),
-  }),
-);
-```
-
-### Optional Arguments
-
-```typescript
-args: {
-  required: tool.schema.string().describe("Must provide"),
-  optional: tool.schema.string().optional().describe("Can omit"),
-}
-```
-
-## Context Passing
-
-Every tool receives `ctx` with session metadata:
-
-```typescript
-interface ToolContext {
-  sessionID: string;    // Unique session identifier
-  messageID: string;    // Current message ID
-  agent: string;        // Agent name (e.g., "Claude Code")
-}
-
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  const { sessionID, messageID, agent } = ctx;
-
-  // Use sessionID for state persistence across tool calls
-  // Use messageID for tracing/logging
-  // Use agent for multi-agent coordination
-}
-```
-
-### Session State Pattern
-
-Store state keyed by `sessionID` for multi-call workflows:
-
-```typescript
-const sessionStates = new Map<string, SessionState>();
-
-function requireState(sessionID: string): SessionState {
-  const state = sessionStates.get(sessionID);
-  if (!state) {
-    throw new Error("Not initialized - call init first");
-  }
-  return state;
-}
-
-export const init_tool = tool({
-  args: {
-    /* ... */
-  },
-  async execute(args, ctx) {
-    const state = {
-      /* ... */
-    };
-    sessionStates.set(ctx.sessionID, state);
-    return "Initialized";
-  },
-});
-
-export const action_tool = tool({
-  args: {
-    /* ... */
-  },
-  async execute(args, ctx) {
-    const state = requireState(ctx.sessionID);
-    // Use state
-  },
-});
-```
-
-### Persistent State (CLI Bridge)
-
-For CLI-based tools, persist state to disk:
-
-```typescript
-import { existsSync, readFileSync, writeFileSync } from "fs";
-import { join } from "path";
-import { tmpdir } from "os";
-
-const STATE_DIR = join(tmpdir(), "my-plugin-sessions");
-
-function loadState(sessionID: string): State | null {
-  const path = join(STATE_DIR, `${sessionID}.json`);
-  if (existsSync(path)) {
-    return JSON.parse(readFileSync(path, "utf-8"));
-  }
-  return null;
-}
-
-function saveState(sessionID: string, state: State): void {
-  mkdirSync(STATE_DIR, { recursive: true });
-  const path = join(STATE_DIR, `${sessionID}.json`);
-  writeFileSync(path, JSON.stringify(state, null, 2));
-}
-```
-
-## Error Handling
-
-Return errors as strings vs throwing for different behaviors:
-
-### Throw for Hard Failures
-
-Agent sees error, cannot continue with invalid result:
-
-```typescript
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  if (!args.required_field) {
-    throw new Error("Missing required_field");
-  }
-
-  const result = await riskyOperation();
-  if (!result) {
-    throw new Error("Operation failed - cannot proceed");
-  }
-
-  return result;
-}
-```
-
-### Return for Graceful Degradation
-
-Agent gets error message but can decide how to handle:
-
-```typescript
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  try {
-    return await preferredMethod();
-  } catch (error) {
-    // Return fallback instead of throwing
-    return JSON.stringify({
-      available: false,
-      error: error.message,
-      fallback: "Use alternative approach",
-    });
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Custom Error Classes
-
-Type-safe errors with metadata:
-
-```typescript
-export class ToolError extends Error {
-  constructor(
-    message: string,
-    public readonly code?: number,
-    public readonly data?: unknown,
-  ) {
-    super(message);
-    this.name = "ToolError";
-    Object.setPrototypeOf(this, ToolError.prototype);
-  }
-}
-
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  if (invalid) {
-    throw new ToolError("Invalid input", 400, { field: "name" });
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Tool Registration
-
-Export tools in plugin hooks:
-
-```typescript
-import type { Plugin, PluginInput, Hooks } from "@opencode-ai/plugin";
-import { my_tool, another_tool } from "./tools";
-
-export const MyPlugin: Plugin = async (input: PluginInput): Promise<Hooks> => {
-  return {
-    tool: {
-      my_tool,
-      another_tool,
-    },
-  };
-};
-
-export default MyPlugin;
-```
-
-### Namespace Pattern
-
-Group related tools:
-
-```typescript
-import { beadsTools } from "./beads";
-import { swarmTools } from "./swarm";
-
-export const SwarmPlugin: Plugin = async (input) => {
-  return {
-    tool: {
-      ...beadsTools, // beads_create, beads_query, etc.
-      ...swarmTools, // swarm_decompose, swarm_status, etc.
-    },
-  };
-};
-```
-
-### Tool Lifecycle Hooks
-
-Execute code before/after tool calls:
-
-```typescript
-export const MyPlugin: Plugin = async (input) => {
-  return {
-    tool: {
-      /* tools */
-    },
-
-    // After tool execution
-    "tool.execute.after": async (input, output) => {
-      const toolName = input.tool;
-
-      if (toolName === "close_task") {
-        // Auto-cleanup
-        await runCleanup();
-      }
-
-      if (toolName === "init") {
-        // Track state
-        trackInitialization(output.output);
-      }
-    },
-
-    // Session lifecycle
-    event: async ({ event }) => {
-      if (event.type === "session.idle") {
-        // Release resources
-        await cleanup();
-      }
-    },
-  };
-};
-```
-
-## CLI Bridge Pattern
-
-Delegate execution to external CLI (common for complex tools):
-
-```typescript
-import { spawn } from "child_process";
-
-async function execCLI(
-  command: string,
-  args: string[],
-  ctx: ToolContext,
-): Promise<string> {
-  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
-    const proc = spawn(command, args, {
-      stdio: ["ignore", "pipe", "pipe"],
-      env: {
-        ...process.env,
-        TOOL_SESSION_ID: ctx.sessionID,
-        TOOL_MESSAGE_ID: ctx.messageID,
-        TOOL_AGENT: ctx.agent,
-      },
-    });
-
-    let stdout = "";
-    let stderr = "";
-
-    proc.stdout.on("data", (data) => {
-      stdout += data;
-    });
-    proc.stderr.on("data", (data) => {
-      stderr += data;
-    });
-
-    proc.on("close", (code) => {
-      if (code === 0) {
-        resolve(stdout);
-      } else {
-        reject(new Error(stderr || `Exit ${code}`));
-      }
-    });
-
-    proc.on("error", (err) => {
-      reject(err);
-    });
-  });
-}
-
-export const cli_tool = tool({
-  description: "Execute via CLI",
-  args: {
-    arg: tool.schema.string(),
-  },
-  async execute(args, ctx) {
-    const output = await execCLI("my-cli", ["--arg", args.arg], ctx);
-    return output;
-  },
-});
-```
-
-### JSON Communication
-
-For structured CLI responses:
-
-```typescript
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  const cliArgs = ["tool", "name", "--json", JSON.stringify(args)];
-  const output = await execCLI("my-cli", cliArgs, ctx);
-
-  try {
-    const result = JSON.parse(output);
-    if (result.success) {
-      return JSON.stringify(result.data, null, 2);
-    } else {
-      throw new Error(result.error || "CLI failed");
-    }
-  } catch {
-    // Not JSON - return raw
-    return output;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Testing Tools
-
-Test tools outside OpenCode runtime:
-
-```typescript
-import { describe, it, expect } from "vitest";
-import { my_tool } from "./my-tool";
-
-describe("my_tool", () => {
-  it("validates required args", async () => {
-    const ctx = {
-      sessionID: "test-session",
-      messageID: "test-msg",
-      agent: "test-agent",
-    };
-
-    await expect(
-      my_tool.execute(
-        {
-          /* missing required */
-        },
-        ctx,
-      ),
-    ).rejects.toThrow();
-  });
-
-  it("returns success for valid input", async () => {
-    const ctx = { sessionID: "test", messageID: "msg", agent: "agent" };
-    const result = await my_tool.execute({ arg: "value" }, ctx);
-
-    expect(result).toContain("Success");
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### Mock Context
-
-Reusable test context:
-
-```typescript
-function mockContext(overrides?: Partial<ToolContext>): ToolContext {
-  return {
-    sessionID: "test-session",
-    messageID: "test-message",
-    agent: "test-agent",
-    ...overrides,
-  };
-}
-
-it("uses session state", async () => {
-  const ctx = mockContext({ sessionID: "unique-session" });
-  await init_tool.execute(
-    {
-      /* ... */
-    },
-    ctx,
-  );
-  const result = await action_tool.execute(
-    {
-      /* ... */
-    },
-    ctx,
-  );
-  expect(result).toBeDefined();
-});
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### Descriptions
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ Good: Action-focused, under 120 chars
-"Create a new bead with type-safe validation";
-"Query beads with filters (replaces bd list, bd ready, bd wip)";
-
-// ❌ Bad: Vague, too long
-"This tool helps you to create beads in the system";
-"Query the beads database using various filtering mechanisms...";
-```
-
-### Arguments
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ Good: Descriptive, type-constrained
-{
-  title: tool.schema.string().min(1).describe("Bead title"),
-  priority: tool.schema.number().min(0).max(3).optional().describe("Priority 0-3"),
-}
-
-// ❌ Bad: No validation, unclear
-{
-  title: tool.schema.string(),
-  priority: tool.schema.number(),
-}
-```
-
-### Return Values
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ Good: Consistent JSON for structured data
-return JSON.stringify({ id: "bd-123", status: "open" }, null, 2);
-
-// ✅ Good: Human-readable for simple operations
-return "Created bead bd-123";
-
-// ❌ Bad: Inconsistent format
-return Math.random() > 0.5 ? { id: "bd-123" } : "Created";
-```
-
-### Error Messages
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ Good: Actionable, specific
-throw new Error("Agent Mail not initialized. Call agentmail_init first.");
-throw new ToolError("Invalid priority: must be 0-3", 400, {
-  value: args.priority,
-});
-
-// ❌ Bad: Vague, no context
-throw new Error("Failed");
-throw new Error("Error");
-```
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Validation Before Execution
-
-```typescript
-import { z } from "zod";
-
-const ArgsSchema = z.object({
-  id: z.string().min(1),
-  priority: z.number().min(0).max(3).optional(),
-});
-
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  const validated = ArgsSchema.parse(args);
-  // Type-safe: validated.id is string, validated.priority is number | undefined
-}
-```
-
-### Rate Limiting
-
-```typescript
-const rateLimiter = new Map<string, { count: number; resetAt: number }>();
-
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  const limit = rateLimiter.get(ctx.sessionID);
-  const now = Date.now();
-
-  if (limit && limit.resetAt > now) {
-    if (limit.count >= 100) {
-      throw new Error(`Rate limit exceeded. Retry after ${new Date(limit.resetAt)}`);
-    }
-    limit.count++;
-  } else {
-    rateLimiter.set(ctx.sessionID, {
-      count: 1,
-      resetAt: now + 60_000, // 1 minute
-    });
-  }
-
-  // Execute
-}
-```
-
-### Retry Logic
-
-```typescript
-async function withRetry<T>(
-  fn: () => Promise<T>,
-  maxRetries = 3,
-): Promise<T> {
-  let lastError: Error | null = null;
-
-  for (let attempt = 0; attempt <= maxRetries; attempt++) {
-    try {
-      return await fn();
-    } catch (error) {
-      lastError = error instanceof Error ? error : new Error(String(error));
-
-      if (attempt < maxRetries) {
-        const delay = Math.pow(2, attempt) * 100;
-        await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, delay));
-      }
-    }
-  }
-
-  throw lastError;
-}
-
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  return await withRetry(() => riskyOperation(args));
-}
-```
-
-### Graceful Degradation
-
-```typescript
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  // Try preferred method
-  const available = await checkDependency();
-
-  if (!available) {
-    // Return fallback info instead of failing
-    return JSON.stringify({
-      available: false,
-      error: "Dependency not running",
-      fallback: "Install with: npm install -g dependency",
-    });
-  }
-
-  // Normal execution
-  const result = await callDependency(args);
-  return JSON.stringify({ available: true, result });
-}
-```
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-### ❌ Overloaded Tools
-
-Don't combine unrelated actions in one tool:
-
-```typescript
-// BAD: Does too much
-const manage_item = tool({
-  args: {
-    action: tool.schema.enum(["create", "update", "delete", "list"]),
-    // ...
-  },
-});
-
-// GOOD: Separate tools
-const create_item = tool({
-  /* ... */
-});
-const update_item = tool({
-  /* ... */
-});
-const delete_item = tool({
-  /* ... */
-});
-```
-
-### ❌ Hidden State
-
-Don't rely on module-level state without sessionID:
-
-```typescript
-// BAD: Shared across sessions
-let currentUser: string;
-
-export const set_user = tool({
-  async execute(args) {
-    currentUser = args.name; // Leaks between sessions!
-  },
-});
-
-// GOOD: Session-keyed state
-const sessions = new Map<string, { user: string }>();
-
-export const set_user = tool({
-  async execute(args, ctx) {
-    sessions.set(ctx.sessionID, { user: args.name });
-  },
-});
-```
-
-### ❌ Swallowing Errors
-
-Don't hide errors from the agent:
-
-```typescript
-// BAD: Silent failure
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  try {
-    return await criticalOperation();
-  } catch {
-    return "Done"; // Lies!
-  }
-}
-
-// GOOD: Explicit error or fallback
-async execute(args, ctx) {
-  try {
-    return await criticalOperation();
-  } catch (error) {
-    throw new Error(`Critical operation failed: ${error.message}`);
-  }
-}
-```
