Get my MCP tool usage (last 30 days)

get_mcp_usage_self
Read-onlyIdempotent

Return the caller's own trailing 30-day MCP tool-usage summary: total calls, success rate, p50 latency, and per-tool call/error counts. Identity is resolved from the OAuth bearer token on this request — anonymous callers receive a zeroed shape. Use this to self-budget against rate limits, audit which tools your agent actually uses, or decide whether a paid tier is worth the spend. Read-only, no side effects.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. The description adds behavioral context: identity resolution from OAuth token, zeroed output for anonymous callers, and reaffirms 'Read-only, no side effects.' 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 four sentences, front-loaded with the main action. Each sentence adds essential information: output summary, identity handling, use cases, and safety. No wasted words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no input parameters and no output schema, the description fully covers what the tool does and what to expect: output fields listed, behavior for anonymous callers explained, and use cases provided. Complete for its simplicity.

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 input schema has zero parameters, so baseline is 4. The description adds value by explaining what the output contains, which helps the agent understand the tool's purpose even without parameters.

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 the tool returns the caller's own trailing 30-day MCP tool-usage summary with specific metrics (total calls, success rate, p50 latency, per-tool counts). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by focusing on MCP usage analytics, which no other tool covers.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description explicitly lists three use cases: self-budgeting against rate limits, auditing tool usage, and deciding on paid tiers. It also notes that anonymous callers receive a zeroed shape, guiding appropriate usage.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, but there is overlap between `get_my_private_feed`, `subscribe_topic`, and `list_subscriptions`—all return or manage feed URLs, which could confuse an agent. Otherwise, categories like publisher, fund manager, and search tools are clearly separated.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools use consistent snake_case with a verb_noun pattern (e.g., `get_article`, `search_articles`, `publisher_upload_audio`). Exceptions like `digest` are single-word verbs but still fit the pattern. No mixed conventions are present.

Tool Count2/5

With 37 tools, the server exceeds the 25-tool threshold considered 'too many' by the rubric. While the broad scope (news, podcasting, publishing, fund management, embedding) justifies a large surface, the count still adds cognitive load and would benefit from splitting into separate servers.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers the major domains: search, retrieval, subscriptions, publishing, fund manager operations, and embedder network. Minor gaps exist, such as the absence of an unsubscribe or delete-episode tool, but the core workflows are well-supported and agents can accomplish most tasks.
