Add readOnlyHint and destructiveHint annotations to all tools to help LLMs better understand tool behavior and make safer decisions. Changes: - Added readOnlyHint: true to get_figma_data (read-only operation) - Added destructiveHint: true to download_figma_images (writes files to disk) - Added title annotations for human-readable display - Bump @modelcontextprotocol/sdk from ^1.10.2 to ^1.25.1 for annotation support This improves tool safety metadata for MCP clients. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Adds MCP tool annotations (
readOnlyHint,destructiveHint) to all tools to help LLMs better understand tool behavior and make safer decisions about tool execution.Changes

Tool annotations provide semantic metadata that helps LLMs understand tool behavior:
