Cirra AI Salesforce Admin MCP Server

metadata_describe

Read-onlyIdempotent

List all Salesforce metadata types available in the org and their properties, such as directory name, suffix, and child objects

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
sf_userNo(optional) Salesforce username to identify the connection to use. Omit this to use the current default connection.
verboseYesIf false or missing, return only the names of the metadata types. This is the default. If true, return additional properties for each type.
pageSizeNo(optional) Maximum number of records to return per page when the response requires pagination, including the first page. If omitted, the first page is a short preview and later pages use an automatically calculated size.
cirra_ai_teamNo(optional) Cirra team ID or name that owns the Salesforce connection to use for this call. Must be provided together with 'sf_user'. Use it to run against a specific team's connection without changing your default team — e.g. to keep separate chats on Salesforce orgs in different teams. Omit it when this call carries the context_handle from cirra_ai_init, which names the team for the conversation. A user with more than one place to work (several teams, or a team and a personal account) must pass either the context_handle or 'cirra_ai_team' + 'sf_user'.
context_handleNo(recommended) The conversation context handle returned by cirra_ai_init in this conversation. Pass the exact context_handle value from the most recent cirra_ai_init result so this call runs against the team and Salesforce connection selected for this conversation. A user with more than one place to work (several Cirra AI teams, or a team and a personal account) must pass either this handle or 'cirra_ai_team' + 'sf_user'; a call with neither is refused.

TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile needs no restating. The description adds that results are scoped to the connected org and hints at what the verbose payload contains, but says nothing about paging, cost, or the very different payload sizes between verbose true and false.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single front-loaded sentence with the resource first and illustrative properties after; no filler, no repetition of schema content.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With a fully documented 5-parameter schema, an output schema, and annotations covering safety, the description only needs to establish purpose and it does. The remaining gap is disambiguation from metadata_list, which matters here because the two names are nearly interchangeable to an agent.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100% and every parameter (sf_user, verbose, pageSize, cirra_ai_team, context_handle) is well documented inline, including the required context_handle/cirra_ai_team pairing rule. The description adds no parameter meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Specific verb ('List') plus specific resource ('Salesforce metadata types available in the org') and even the shape of returned properties (directory name, suffix, child objects). It stops short of differentiating itself from the near-identically named sibling metadata_list, leaving the agent to guess which of the two enumerates types versus components.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no statement of when to use this versus metadata_list, metadata_read, or tooling_api_describe, and no prerequisites or exclusions. The only usage-shaped information (the verbose toggle) lives in the schema, not the description.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
