Better Error Handling +No need to validate or extract fields from request objects during execution. + +### 4. Enhanced Readability +Function signatures clearly show all available parameters and their types without requiring model class inspection. + +### 5. Simplified Client Usage +MCP clients can pass parameters directly without constructing request objects. + +### 6.
