Research direction

Start with plugins/mcp-tools/skills/audit/evals/evals.json and copy the structure of an existing case. Add a fixture with one tool description and one server instructions field, each over 2,048 characters, then add a case expecting C4 WARN for each, checking the critical-details-near-the-start guidance. Done when the new case is in evals.json and the audit eval run reports C4 WARN for both fields.

Description

needs-human needs-triage

The /mcp-tools:audit evals (plugins/mcp-tools/skills/audit/evals/evals.json) have no case exercising C4, the tool description and server instructions length criterion. #6779 re-grades an over-2,048-character description from FAIL to WARN after a source conflict between the mcp page, env-vars page and changelog 2.1.295/2.1.296; nothing checks that the audit applies the new grade.

Add a fixture with one tool description and one server instructions field over 2,048 characters, and an eval case expecting C4 WARN for each, with the critical-details-near-the-start guidance.

Found during the Claude Code v2.1.265..v2.1.296 changelog apply.
