Tool Definition Quality
Average 4.1/5 across 11 of 11 tools scored.
Each tool targets a distinct action and venue (orderbook, snapshots, search for Kalshi/Limitless/Polymarket, plus a cross-venue screener and a session info tool). No overlap in functionality, even across venues.
All venue-specific tools follow a consistent `venue_action` snake_case pattern (e.g., `kalshi_get_orderbook`). The two standalone tools (`screener`, `whoami`) are clearly distinct and do not break the overall consistency.
11 tools is ideal for a data-focused server covering three venues with three operations each plus two auxiliary tools. No fat or missing pieces.
The tool surface provides complete depth data access for each venue (current orderbook, historical snapshots, market search) along with a cross-venue screener and session introspection. No obvious gaps for the stated purpose.
Available Tools
11 toolskalshi_get_orderbookARead-onlyInspect
Latest yes/no order-book depth for a Kalshi market by ticker. Requires a paid plan.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| ticker | Yes | Kalshi market ticker from kalshi_search_markets. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true. The description adds that it returns the latest order-book depth and requires a paid plan, which are useful behavioral details beyond the annotations. No contradiction.
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 two sentences (14 words) with no wasted text. It front-loads the core purpose and adds a key constraint succinctly.
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 the single parameter, no output schema, and schema documenting the parameter, the description is complete enough. It explains what the tool does, the required input, and a crucial prerequisite. Minor improvement could be noting the return format.
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?
With 100% schema coverage, the description of the ticker parameter ('Kalshi market ticker from kalshi_search_markets') is already in the schema. The tool description does not add extra meaning beyond that, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
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 tool retrieves the latest yes/no order-book depth for a Kalshi market by ticker. The verb 'get' is implicit, and the resource is well-defined. It differentiates from siblings like kalshi_get_snapshots and limitless_* tools.
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 mentions 'Requires a paid plan' and implies the ticker comes from kalshi_search_markets, offering some guidance. However, it lacks explicit when-to-use/ when-not-to-use instructions or alternatives, relying on implied context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The combination of description, schema, and annotations provides thorough context: purpose, access requirements, pagination with cursor, and parameter details. No output schema exists, but the description covers what the tool returns (list of markets with depth). Slight improvement would be mentioning default pagination behavior.
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?
Schema description coverage is 100% with detailed parameter descriptions (e.g., coin parameter breaks down access tiers). The tool description itself does not add significant parameter-level meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
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 tool lists Kalshi crypto markets with full yes/no depth and identifies it as DepthFeed-exclusive. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like limitless_search_markets or polymarket_search_markets.
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?

Proven adoption – public usage metrics on your listing show real-world traction and build trust with prospective users

Direct user feedback – users can report issues and suggest improvements through the listing, giving you a channel you would not have otherwise
The connector status is unhealthy when Glama is unable to successfully connect to the server. This can happen for several reasons:
The server is experiencing an outage
The URL of the server is wrong
Credentials required to access the server are missing or invalid
If you are the owner of this MCP connector and would like to make modifications to the listing, including providing test credentials for accessing the server, please contact support@glama.ai.
