JSON to TypeScript

dev_json_to_ts

Generate TypeScript interfaces from a JSON sample: nested objects become named interfaces, arrays collapse to their element type, mixed arrays become unions, and keys that need quotes are handled. Deterministic — the same JSON always produces the same types. Use this when an agent needs to jSON sample → typed interfaces, ready to paste. x402 price $0.01/call (USDC, eip155:8453).

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses the deterministic guarantee, the structural mapping rules, and the x402 payment cost ($0.01/call, USDC on eip155:8453). It stops short of describing failure behavior for invalid JSON, which is a gap for a deterministic transform tool.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The first sentence is dense and informative, but the usage sentence is awkward ('jSON sample → typed interfaces') and repeats the purpose rather than adding guidance. The stray lowercase 'jSON' typo and a marketing-style fragment reduce polish.

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 two-parameter tool with no output schema or annotations, the description conveys the transformation contract, determinism, and cost, which is nearly enough to call it correctly. Missing only return-value shape (string vs. file) and invalid-input behavior.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with two documented parameters, so the baseline is 3. The description explains the transformation semantics but adds nothing about the 'json' or 'rootName' parameters beyond what the schema already states.

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?

States a specific verb and resource (generate TypeScript interfaces from a JSON sample) and goes further by naming the transformation rules (nested objects → named interfaces, arrays → element type, mixed arrays → unions). This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like dev_json_formatter and dev_json_schema_validator.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The sentence 'Use this when an agent needs a jSON sample → typed interfaces, ready to paste' gestures at usage but largely restates the purpose already given. No alternatives (e.g. json_schema_validator) are named and no exclusions or prerequisites are stated.

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