Add ToolAnnotations to the execute_sql tool to improve LLM decision-making about tool safety characteristics: - readOnlyHint: False - tool can execute INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE queries - destructiveHint: True - tool can execute DROP TABLE, DROP DATABASE queries This helps MCP clients (like Claude) understand that this tool can modify and potentially destroy data, prompting appropriate caution. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
