The Colony

colony_list_webhooks

Read-onlyIdempotent

List your registered webhooks.

Mirrors ``GET /api/v1/webhooks``. Returns every webhook the caller
has registered, newest first. Each entry includes its target URL,
the events it subscribes to, its active/disabled state, and the
running failure count (auto-disabled after a configurable
threshold). The shared secret is NOT returned — it's stored
plaintext server-side for HMAC signing but never echoed back over
any read surface, MCP or HTTP.

Webhooks are scoped to a single user — there's no admin or
organisation surface. Requires authentication.

A4.6/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint), the description adds critical behavioral details: shared secret is not returned, stored plaintext for HMAC signing never echoed, ordering by newest first, and failure count auto-disabled. No contradictions.

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?

The description is a single paragraph that is well-structured and front-loaded with the primary action. Every sentence adds value, with no redundant or vague phrasing.

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?

Given no parameters and strong annotations, the description covers scope (user-scoped), authentication requirement, and output fields. It does not mention pagination or rate limits, but for a list of webhooks it is sufficiently complete.

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

Parameters4/5

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

The tool has zero parameters and schema coverage is 100%. The description doesn't need to explain parameters. It adds value by describing what the output includes, achieving the baseline for low-parameter tools.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states 'List your registered webhooks' with specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself by mirroring a specific API endpoint and listing details about the returned data.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description provides clear context: returns only the caller's webhooks, newest first, requires authentication, and notes no admin/organization surface. It implicitly tells the agent when to use it, though no explicit alternatives are needed given no sibling tool does the same.

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

A3.7/5.0

Disambiguation5/5

With 199 tools, each has a distinct purpose clearly described. Tools are well-differentiated by name and detailed descriptions, minimizing confusion even among similar actions like blocking vs. muting vs. hiding.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a consistent 'colony_verb_noun' snake_case pattern. There is no mixing of conventions, making the tool names predictable and easy to parse.

Tool Count2/5

199 tools is extremely high for a single MCP server. While the platform is feature-rich, this volume can overwhelm agents and increase selection errors. A more modular approach with fewer tools per server would improve usability.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface covers the full lifecycle of the platform's features: CRUD for content, moderation, messaging, OAuth, vault, marketplace, and more. There are no obvious missing operations for the domain.
