Agent Skills: MANDATORY RULES: VIOLATION IS FORBIDDEN

MANDATORY RULES: VIOLATION IS FORBIDDEN

• Response language follows language setting in .agents/oma-config.yaml if configured.
• NEVER skip steps. Execute from Step 1 in order.
• Read configuration files BEFORE making changes.

Vendor note: This workflow executes inline (no subagent spawning). All vendors use their native file reading tools to inspect MCP and skill configurations.

Step 1: Show Current Status

1. Read .agents/mcp.json (project configuration)
2. Read ~/.gemini/settings.json if exists (Gemini CLI global settings); optional
3. Display status for each MCP server:
   • available_tools: null → "All enabled (no restrictions)"
   • available_tools: [...] → "N tools enabled" + list
4. If toolGroups is defined, display available group list

Output example:

Current MCP Tool Status

[serena]
- Status: All enabled (no restrictions)
- Available tools: 15

Available Tool Groups:
- memory: read_memory, write_memory, edit_memory, list_memories, delete_memory
- code-analysis: get_symbols_overview, find_symbol, find_referencing_symbols, search_for_pattern
- code-edit: replace_symbol_body, insert_after_symbol, insert_before_symbol, rename_symbol
- file-ops: list_dir, find_file
- all: All tools (no restrictions)

What would you like to change?

Step 2: Parse User Command

Parse natural language commands:

| Command Pattern | Interpretation | |-----------------|----------------| | "current status", "list", "show" | Re-execute Step 1 | | "memory tools only", "enable only {group}" | Set only that group's tools in available_tools | | "disable {tool}", "turn off {tool}" | Remove that tool from available_tools | | "enable all", "turn on all", "reset" | Set available_tools: null | | "enable only {tool1}, {tool2}" | Set only specified tools in available_tools |

Group combination support:

• "memory + file tools" → Merge memory + file-ops groups
• "all except code analysis" → Exclude code-analysis from all

Step 3: Update Configuration

1. Show before/after diff:

   Pending mcp.json changes:
   
   Before:
   - serena.available_tools: null (all)
   
   After:
   - serena.available_tools: ["read_memory", "write_memory", "edit_memory", "list_memories", "delete_memory"]
   
   Apply changes? (Y/N)
   

2. After user confirmation, modify .agents/mcp.json

3. Completion message:

   Done! serena can now only use memory tools.
   
   Note: Changes will fully apply after IDE/CLI restart.
   Previous settings may continue to apply in current session.
   

Step 4: Handle Special Cases

Unknown Tool Name

'{tool_name}' is an unknown tool.

Similar tools:
- read_memory
- write_memory

Please enter the exact tool name.

Server Conflict

When multiple MCP servers are configured:

Multiple MCP servers detected:
- serena
- custom-memory

Which server's tools would you like to modify?
1. serena
2. custom-memory
3. All

Empty Tool List

Setting available_tools to an empty array will disable all tools for that server.
Are you sure you want to continue? (Y/N)

Quick Reference

| Command | Result | |---------|--------| | /tools | Show current status | | /tools memory only | Enable only memory tools | | /tools code analysis + memory | Enable both groups | | /tools all | Enable all tools (reset) | | /tools read_memory, write_memory only | Enable only specified tools | | /tools disable code edit | Remove that group |

Note: If IDE/CLI doesn't directly support available_tools, tool usage must be self-restricted at the workflow level.
