Glama MCP Gateway
Connect through Glama MCP Gateway for full control over tool access and complete visibility into every call.
Full call logging
Every tool call is logged with complete inputs and outputs, so you can debug issues and audit what your agents are doing.
Tool access control
Enable or disable individual tools per connector, so you decide what your agents can and cannot do.
Managed credentials
Glama handles OAuth flows, token storage, and automatic rotation, so credentials never expire on your clients.
Usage analytics
See which tools your agents call, how often, and when, so you can understand usage patterns and catch anomalies.
Tool Definition Quality
Average 3.5/5 across 1 of 1 tools scored.
Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusion or overlap.
The single tool uses a clear verb_noun pattern (validate_ip), which is consistent.
One tool is appropriate for the narrow, specific purpose of verifying OpenAI GPTBot IP addresses.
The tool fully covers its intended domain of IP validation against a defined set, with no obvious missing functionality.
Available Tools
1 toolvalidate_ipValidate OpenAI GPTBot IPAInspect
Check whether an IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is a genuine OpenAI GPTBot IP address, verified against OpenAI GPTBot's published IP data on seoapi.com.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| ip | Yes | The IPv4 or IPv6 address to validate |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It mentions verification against published IP data on seoapi.com, hinting at external dependency but not detailing caching, update frequency, or error behavior. More transparency about return format or edge cases would improve this score.
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?
A single sentence that conveys core functionality without verbosity. It is front-loaded and to the point. Could potentially be slightly more structured (e.g., bullet points) but is effective.
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?
The tool has no output schema, so the description should explain the return value (e.g., boolean true/false or detailed result). It does not mention what the response contains, error handling, or rate limits. For a validation tool, this is a notable gap.
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 input schema covers 100% of parameter descriptions (the 'ip' parameter already states 'IPv4 or IPv6 address'). The description adds no additional semantics beyond what the schema 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's function: check whether an IP is a genuine OpenAI GPTBot IP. It specifies the resource (IP address) and the action (validate), and includes both IPv4 and IPv6. Though no siblings exist, the purpose is unambiguous and specific.
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?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, but since there are no sibling tools named, the lack of alternatives is understandable. The description implies usage for verifying GPTBot IPs, but could benefit from stating prerequisites or typical contexts.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Claim this connector by publishing a /.well-known/glama.json file on your server's domain with the following structure:
{
"$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/connector.json",
"maintainers": [{ "email": "your-email@example.com" }]
}The email address must match the email associated with your Glama account. Once published, Glama will automatically detect and verify the file within a few minutes.

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
