Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| mcpretentious-openA | Opens a new terminal window and creates a tracked terminal session. Returns a terminal ID that can be used with other commands. |
| mcpretentious-readA | Reads text output from a terminal session. Returns the current screen contents. Use mcpretentious-screenshot for rich terminal info including colors, cursor position, and styles. |
| mcpretentious-screenshotA | Takes a token-optimized screenshot of the terminal screen using a layered format that reduces token usage by 85-98%. Returns only the data layers you need (text, cursor, colors, styles). Supports viewport limiting to show just a region or area around cursor. Essential for inspecting TUI applications without hitting token limits. |
| mcpretentious-closeB | Closes the terminal window associated with the specified terminal ID. |
| mcpretentious-listA | Lists all currently open terminal sessions with their IDs. |
| mcpretentious-typeA | Send text and keystrokes to a terminal. Always pass as array.

TDQS
Scored across 9 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action: close, info, list, mouse, open, read, resize, screenshot, type. There is no functional overlap; an agent can clearly distinguish between them.
Most tools use an imperative verb form (close, open, list, type, read, resize), but 'mcpretentious-mouse' is a noun rather than a verb, and 'info' is also a noun. This minor inconsistency prevents a top score.
With 9 tools covering open, close, list, info, type, read, resize, screenshot, and mouse input, the count is well-scoped for terminal session management. No tool feels redundant or missing.
The tool set covers the full lifecycle of terminal sessions: creation, destruction, listing, input (keyboard and mouse), output reading (plain and styled), resizing, and metadata retrieval. No obvious gaps for typical use.
