Mailchimp MCP by InsightfulPipe

Mailchimp Data Query

query_data
Read-only

Query Mailchimp data (Step 3 (FINAL) of workflow).

REQUIRED: Complete these steps first using query_contexts:

  1. request='accounts' - Get workspace_id, brand_id AND available_actions

  2. request='actions_details' with actions=['xxxxxx', 'xxxxxx', 'xxxxxx'] - Get detailed body structure for specific action(s) using actions from available_actions

IMPORTANT: Always call step 2 to see the exact body structure before querying.

Rely on info from steps 1-2 to construct the query body. Follow the schema exactly.

TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the constraint that the body must be constructed from prior context calls and must follow the schema exactly, which is useful operational context; it says nothing about error behavior, rate limits, or result shape, but an output schema exists so that gap is partly structural.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with purpose and workflow position, then a numbered prerequisite list — the structure matches the mental model the agent needs. It loses a little to redundancy: "Always call step 2" restates step 2 from the list, and "Follow the schema exactly" duplicates "Rely on info from steps 1-2".

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?

For a tool whose sole input is a fully dynamic body, the description correctly redirects the agent to the two context calls that define it, and an output schema exists so return values need no explanation. What is missing is any illustration of a valid body or a note on what happens if the prerequisites were skipped.

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?

There is a single opaque `body` object with 0% schema coverage and additionalProperties=true, so the schema conveys essentially nothing. The description compensates meaningfully by telling the agent exactly where the body structure comes from (query_contexts steps 1-2) and to follow the schema exactly, which is the only actionable guidance available for this parameter.

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

Purpose3/5

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

"Query Mailchimp data" names a verb and resource but the resource is generic — it does not say what kind of data (campaigns, audiences, reports) or what the query returns. The parenthetical "Step 3 (FINAL) of workflow" does situate it relative to query_contexts, which prevents this from being a tautology, but an agent still cannot tell from this description alone how it differs from execute_action.

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 gives an explicit ordered prerequisite chain: call query_contexts with request='accounts' first, then request='actions_details', and it states the reason each is needed. It does not, however, contrast query_data against execute_action, so the agent gets sequencing but not sibling selection.

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