## Definition

**Assembly:** Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.dll

**Namespace:** Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Legacy.Generators

**Inheritance:** System.Object

## Syntax

```csharp theme={"dark"}
Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Legacy.Generators.CrudToolGenerator
```

## Summary

Generates CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) MCP tools from OData entity types.

## Remarks

This generator creates MCP tools that allow AI models to perform basic data operations
on OData entities. It generates separate tools for each CRUD operation, with proper
validation, documentation, and parameter handling.
