The
analyzetool in the developer MCP extension expects numeric parameters (max_depthandfollow_depth) as integers, but AI agents sometimes pass these as strings (e.g.,"2"instead of2), causing deserialization failures. This simple fix adds a flexible deserializer that accepts both formats, making the tool more forgiving and agent-friendly without changing its behavior—similar to how web forms accept both numeric and string inputs for number fields.
