  • Code Maintenance & Refactoring: Take ownership of the MCP Toolbox for Databases codebase, focusing on refactoring legacy components and maintaining high-quality test suites.

  • Technical Documentation: Bridge the gap between engineering and community adoption by converting technical blog posts into functional toolbox sample code and comprehensive documentation.

  • R&D Support: Build and maintain a realistic, high-fidelity data application using QueryData. Use this environment as a primary testbed to support ongoing Product R&D, with a specific focus on advancing the Context Engineering Agent.
