> camel mcp exposes 83 tools. Since CAMEL-24695 the shared authoring tools
> (camel_catalog_doc, camel_catalog_find, camel_validate_source,
> camel_eval_expression, camel_get_errors, camel_control, ...) answer the
> questions a number of older per-kind tools were written for, so a client now
> has two near-identical tools for the same question. For a model that is pure
> cost: more schema to read (about 12,000 characters, a fifth of the set), and
> the choice between two similar tools is where small models pick the weaker
> one (in the CAMEL-24698 benchmark the model chose the schema-only
> camel_validate_yaml_dsl over camel_validate_source and was told a broken
> route was valid, until the schema tool got the catalog checks in PR 26378).
> Older tool -> covered by:
> * camel_catalog_component_doc, camel_catalog_dataformat_doc,
> camel_catalog_language_doc, camel_catalog_eip_doc -> camel_catalog_doc with
> the kind (optionsFilter, includeOptions, includeDoc)
> * camel_catalog_component_maven -> camel_catalog_doc returns the Maven
> coordinates
> * camel_catalog_components, camel_catalog_dataformats,
> camel_catalog_languages, camel_catalog_eips -> camel_catalog_find (name,
> title, label, best match first)
> * camel_validate_yaml_dsl, camel_validate_route -> camel_validate_source
> (schema plus the catalog checks); the endpoint URI check is camel_catalog_doc
> endpoint=
> * camel_runtime_eval -> camel_eval_expression
> * camel_runtime_errors -> camel_get_errors
> * camel_runtime_stop -> camel_control action=stop
> Keep: camel_catalog_docs, camel_catalog_examples and
> camel_catalog_example_file, the kamelet tools, camel_version_list,
> camel_component_properties (the camel.component.* keys, a different
> question), the runtime, migration, security and scaffold groups.
> Proposed: one release with the older tools still present and "Deprecated: use
> camel_catalog_doc ..." at the start of their descriptions (and the prompts in
> PromptDefinitions pointing to the shared tools), then removal. Check first
> whether Kaoto or another client calls the older names; removing a tool is a
> breaking change for MCP clients.
