Description

mcp server was hallucinating there was 15 submodules in the lz-vpc instead of actually 2 based on past conversation history context.

mcp wasn't providing all the possible solutions for my problem to implement reserved ips in the example i gave it and instead just stopped at the first solution it came across with floating ip submodule implementation.

I read LLMs prefer positive prompting, and do, don't suggest recommendations while ALWAYS and NEVER make them hard requirements. Try and see if this makes any noticeble difference:

**ALWAYS**:

- Provide a concise, curated selection of the most relevant modules
- Explore and compare multiple alternatives before recommending
- Conduct thorough searches to ensure comprehensive coverage
- Present a single best-fit option when the use case clearly points to one solution
