  "new_user",
  "register_user",
  "signup_user"
]

```

```json
{
  "send_email": "✅ Clear action",
  "email": "❌ Unclear if reading or sending",
  "get_email": "✅ Clear action",
  "email_data": "❌ What happens to the data?"

```json
{
  "get_user": "✅ Consistent pattern",
  "create_user": "✅ Consistent pattern",
  "fetchUserData": "❌ Different pattern",
  "user_delete": "❌ Different pattern"
}

```

```json

--------------------------------

### MCP Tool Description Clarity

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/building/best-practices

Illustrates the importance of writing specific and informative descriptions for MCP tools. Vague descriptions hinder AI understanding, while clear ones improve tool selection and usage.

```json
{
  "name": "calculate_tax",
  "description": "Calculate tax amount for a purchase based on item price and location"
}

```

```json
{
  "name": "process_data",
  "description": "Processes data"
}

```

--------------------------------

### MCP Resource Description Specificity

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/building/best-practices

Illustrates the difference between vague and specific descriptions for MCP resources. Specific descriptions enhance AI's ability to understand and utilize resource data correctly.

```json
{
  "uri": "user://profile", 
  "description": "User profile including name, email, preferences, and account settings"
}

```

```json
{
  "uri": "user://data",
  "description": "User data"
}

```

--------------------------------

### MCP Prompt Template Design

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/building/best-practices

Compares a simple, effective prompt template with variables to a complex one. Good templates are flexible without being overly complicated for AI interpretation.

```text
Hi {name}, 

Your meeting with {attendee} is scheduled for {date} at {time}.

Best regards,
{sender}

```

```text
{greeting_type} {name_with_title}, 

{conditional_text_based_on_time_of_day} {meeting_type} with {attendee_list_formatted} is {scheduling_verb} for {date_formatted_long} at {time_with_timezone}.

{closing_based_on_relationship},
{sender_with_signature}

```

--------------------------------

### Deploy MCP to Production Environment

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/api-reference/introduction

Deploys a specified MCP to a target environment, typically production. This operation uses a POST request to the /v1/deploy endpoint and requires the MCP ID and environment name.

```bash
POST /v1/deploy  
{
  "mcp_id": "your-mcp-id",
  "environment": "production"
}
```

--------------------------------

### LeanMCP CLI Login Command

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/cli/authentication

Logs into the LeanMCP CLI using an API key. Replace <your-api-key> with your actual API key obtained from the LeanMCP dashboard. The command expects the API key as an argument.

```bash
mcli auth login --api-key <your-api-key>
```

```bash
mcli auth login --api-key airtrain_1234567890abcdef...
```

--------------------------------

### MCP Error-Resistant Parameters

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/building/best-practices

Demonstrates how to design MCP parameters to be error-resistant, favoring structured inputs over free-text fields that require parsing. This reduces the likelihood of AI input errors.

```json
{
  "year": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 2020, "maximum": 2030},
  "month": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 1, "maximum": 12},
  "day": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 1, "maximum": 31}
}

```

```json
{
  "date": {"type": "string", "description": "Date in any format"}
}

```

--------------------------------

### POST /v1/test

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/api-reference/test

Tests an MCP server by sending a message to an AI agent and observing its interaction with the server.

```APIDOC
## POST /v1/test

### Description

  "context": {
    "user_id": "user_123"
  }
}
```

    "timestamp": "2023-12-01T12:00:00Z"
  }
}
```
```

--------------------------------

### MCP Schema Simplicity

Source: https://docs.leanmcp.com/building/best-practices

Highlights the need for simple and flat input schemas in MCP designs. Complex, nested schemas can lead to errors for AI agents, whereas flat structures are easier to parse.

```json
{
  "properties": {
    "user_id": {"type": "string"},
    "email": {"type": "string"},
    "name": {"type": "string"}
  }
}

```

```json
{
  "properties": {
    "user": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "profile": {
          "type": "object", 
          "properties": {
            "settings": { /* more nesting... */ }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

```
