The visible configuration describes an implementation planner. Providing search and read supports the information-gathering work needed to produce a technically grounded plan: locating relevant code and inspecting its contents. The listed documentation tools supplement repository context with external technical reference material.

This tool selection also establishes a practical boundary between planning and implementation. A planner can explain proposed changes and produce Markdown in its response without needing permission to modify repository files. Granting editing or command-execution capabilities would expand its authority beyond the visible planning role.

The distinction between generating Markdown and saving a Markdown file is important. The selected tools support producing a plan in conversation. If the requirements instead demanded that the planner write that plan directly into the repository, an appropriate file-writing capability or a separate persistence step would be necessary.

Tool names must also resolve to capabilities available in the configured environment. Merely listing a documentation tool does not install or authenticate its MCP server.
