A new tool called routeproof has been developed to test the reliability of AI model routing to specific tools. When tested against the @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem reference implementation, routeproof revealed that the AI model's tool selection is not deterministic, with results varying even with identical inputs. The tool identified a specific issue where the `list_allowed_directories` function was incorrectly called for file reading and directory tree requests, despite its description not encompassing those functionalities. The developer's initial prediction that a deprecated `read_file` tool would be the source of the error was disproven, highlighting the subtle nature of routing failures. AI
IMPACT This tool could improve the reliability of AI agents by identifying and fixing routing errors in tool selection.
