+    explanation: >
+      A Vercel AI SDK tool whose binding identifier is a generic name like
+      `process`, `handle`, or `run` gives the model no signal about intent once
+      that binding is registered under the agent's tools record. Vercel leaves
+      ToolDef.Name empty (the model-facing name is the record key), so this rule
+      matches the binding identifier (VarName). Authors often register
+      `tools: { process }` or reuse a throwaway binding that later becomes the
+      public name — the model then mis-routes or under-calls the tool.
+    fix: >
+      Rename the binding to a verb-object form (e.g. `summarizeInvoice`,
+      `fetchWeather`) and use that same identifier as the agent's tools-record
+      key so the model-facing name stays descriptive.
