Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states the purpose, lacking details on side effects, idempotency, or authentication needs (despite session_token param).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, concise but overly sparse. It could be more informative without sacrificing brevity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 5 parameters (3 required with enums), no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not explain the ceremony concept, required evidence format, or parameter roles.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description does not mention any parameters; schema coverage is 0%. With 5 parameters (3 required, 2 enums), the description adds no meaning beyond the schema, failing to compensate for the lack of schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Record evidence' and the resource 'that a Connect ceremony step has completed'. It distinguishes from siblings like handshake, plan, status, talk, which involve other actions.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies use after a step completes but provides no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternatives. Sibling tools cover different ceremony phases, but no guidance is given.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: handshake, plan, report step, status, talk for the ceremony; recall and remember for memory. No overlap between tools or groups.
Tools use snake_case, but prefixes are inconsistent: five use 'odei_connect_' and two use 'wm_'. While each group is internally consistent, the mix across a single server named 'connect' is confusing.
7 tools is a reasonable count, not too few or many. However, the server covers two distinct domains (ceremony and memory), which might be better separated.
The connect ceremony tools cover handshake, plan, report, status, talk—seemingly complete for a session lifecycle. The memory tools only provide read and write, missing update and delete, which are notable gaps for a memory store.
