MCP tool decision tree and MCP-first fallback strategy. TRIGGER when: choosing whether to use an MCP tool versus a built-in, or an MCP tool is available for a task. SKIP: semantic-memory MCP usage specifically (use semantic-memory-mcp).
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# MCP Tools Decision Tree ## Priority Order 1. Does an MCP tool exist for this operation? **Use it first.** 2. Did the MCP tool fail (auth missing, plugin unavailable)? **Fall back to built-in.** 3. No MCP tool matches? **Use built-in tools** (Bash, Grep, WebSearch, etc.). ## MCP Plugin Quick Reference | Plugin | Transport | Key Tools | Agents | |--------|-----------|-----------|--------| | context7 | stdio | `mcp__context7__resolve-library-id`, `mcp__context7__get-library-docs` | researcher, developer | | playwright | stdio | `mcp__playwright__browser_navigate`, `mcp__playwright__browser_screenshot` | developer, debugger | | chrome-devtools | stdio | `mcp__chrome-devtools__*` | developer, debugger | | eslint | stdio | `mcp__eslint__*` | developer, reviewer | | sonarqube | docker | `mcp__sonarqube__*` | developer, reviewer | | sequential-thinking | stdio | `mcp__sequential-thinking__*` | architect, debugger | | postgres-mcp | stdio | `mcp__postgres-mcp__*` | developer, optimizer | | redis-mcp | stdio | `mcp__redis-mcp__*` | developer, devops, debugger | | docker | stdio | `mcp__docker__*` | devops | | cron | stdio | `mcp__cron__*` | devops | …

How to install
mdr add komluk/scaffolding/mcp-tools@sha256:8960d18177d4bdbcThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.1d4609f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
