Research direction

Start with the Angular CLI's mcp command and trace how the MCP server exposes tools. Review how Angular and external schematics are described and invoked; done means the server can discover available project schematics, expose their inputs, and call a selected schematic.

mcp

Description

Today, when I'm using LLM with the Angular MCP server, code is generated directly by the LLM but for some cases it would provide better result if it is using the available schematic (Angular ones or external libraries ones).

Describe the solution you'd like

When using the Angular MCP server, I would expect LMM to be aware of which Angular schematics are available in the project (the ones from Angular + the ones from external libraries).
I would love that the Angular MCP server is able to read the schematic description and input, to know if it should use it or not and how to call it.
