Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
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 usefully discloses cost behavior ('不计费' / not billed) and enumerates the categories of returned information (tools, capability domains, quotas, plans), but says nothing about rate limits, auth requirements, or caching — leaving the operational profile only partially covered.
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?
Two short sentences with no filler. The most decision-relevant fact (what it lists) comes first, and the actionable instruction (call it on connect) is front-loaded at the end where it is easy to act on.
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?
With no output schema, no annotations, and no parameters, the description is nearly complete for a discovery tool: it says what is returned and that it costs nothing. It could be marginally stronger by indicating that its output should drive subsequent tool selection, but nothing essential is missing.
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 tool takes zero parameters, so per the rubric the baseline is 4. The description correctly implies a parameterless, self-contained call, and there is nothing further a parameter section could add.
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?
States a specific verb (列出/list) and resource (本 MCP 的全部工具、能力域、限额与套餐), which no sibling tool does — every sibling is a domain-specific search or get. An agent can instantly tell this is the meta/discovery tool rather than a data-retrieval tool.
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?
Explicitly prescribes the calling context: '接入后第一件事就是调它' (call it first thing after connecting), which is strong, actionable when-to-use guidance. It stops short of naming when not to use it or pointing to alternatives, but for a zero-param meta tool the alternative space is just 'anything else', so the gap is minor.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
