09/03/2026, 5:13 PMThe new AI Description fields on all customizations: Are these basically the same thing as the "description" value in an item in the JSON of the responseFormat parameter you can put in the llm.generateText() call, but is usable by Ask Oracle and MCP Tools?
If that's true, then would it make sense to start out by copying all the normal Description fields into the AI Description field on every customization to start out, (assuming the descriptions are accurate), and then refine the AI Descriptions from there?

09/04/2026, 8:30 PMWould populating the Ai Descriptions potentially lower the demands on various AIs that use NetSuite MCP, by making the steps needed to accomplish the prompt goals clearer and reducing the need for the AI to "ask around" in as many places/ways?
