+- Communicate through the MCP server's up-front prompts which tool parameters
+ are _generally_ mutually exclusive with each other unless the user indicates
+ or hints otherwise.
+ - Maybe make it user-configurable?
+- _Optionally_ include a tool that calls a configurable LLM for task time
+ estimations so the main LLM doesn't have to guess.
