When MCP servers define generic tools, those tools often conflict with other tools defined by other MCP servers. In this case, the generic query tool conflicts with many. (e.g. the query tool defined in the canonical Postgres MCP tool)

I encountered this while using both Minima and Postgres MCP tools with Claude Desktop, which had a lot of trouble distinguishing between the tools. Being specific about the tool name helps prevent such confusion.
