Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is clear. The description adds that the tool returns 'content' in addition to details, which is useful context beyond annotations. It does not mention pagination or error behavior, but for a simple get tool this is acceptable.
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?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no filler. Every word contributes to meaning, making it highly efficient.
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 only one parameter, a read-only annotation, and an output schema present, the description adequately covers the tool's purpose and scope. It does not need to explain return values because the output schema exists.
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?
Schema description coverage is 100% for the single parameter 'domain', which already explains its meaning. The description does not add additional semantic value to the parameter, so baseline 3 applies.
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 uses the specific verb 'Get' with a clear resource ('details about a specific humanMCP server and its content'). It distinguishes from sibling tools by emphasizing 'specific' versus listing all or searching the marketplace.
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?
The description implies usage for retrieving details on a single server, which clearly contrasts with list_servers and search_marketplace. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives or state when not to use this tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: get_server retrieves a single server's details, list_servers enumerates all registered instances, and search_marketplace performs cross-server queries. There is no overlap or ambiguity in their intended use.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with clear, descriptive actions: get_, list_, search_. The naming is uniform and predictable, making it easy to infer functionality from the name alone.
With only 3 tools, the set feels slightly thin for a marketplace, but each tool covers a necessary discovery operation: listing, retrieving, and searching. The count is on the low end but within a reasonable range for a focused read-only service.
The tools cover the read-only discovery aspects well (list, get, search), but the marketplace lacks any write operations such as registering a server, creating a listing, or managing offers/trades. This is a notable gap for a platform that claims to support listings and trades, preventing agents from participating in the marketplace lifecycle.
