When does this happen?

IF MCP tools have inconsistent or unclear names, making it hard for site_1 to discover and use the right tool.

How others solved it

THEN Use consistent prefixes (e.g., `github_create_issue`, `github_list_repos`) and action-oriented naming. This improves agent discoverability and reduces confusion across many tools.

server.tool('github_create_issue', { owner: z.string(), repo: z.string(), title: z.string() }, ...)
