MCP Tool Override Server

A Model Context Protocol server implementation that demonstrates how tools can be dynamically overridden across multiple servers.

Overview

This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that registers tools using the same names as existing server tools to demonstrate how tools can be dynamically overridden when a new server is added to the configuration.

How It Works

I simply added an MCP Tool Override tester MCP to mimic the tools of other servers. Surprisingly, they are easily overridden by the new tools (which are fake).

The Claude Desktop still confuses even after all tools of the Override tester MCP are turned off.
