Enabling Disabled Tools
Some tools are disabled by default (shown as empty cells in the "Enabled (default)" column above). To enable these disabled tools:
- Locate the tool definition in the source code
- Remove the
tags=["Disabled"]line from the tool configuration - Restart the MCP server
This will make the previously disabled tools available for use.
