Music Reference Guide

get-music-guide
Read-onlyIdempotent

Returns detailed reference material for music composition. Topics: instruments (GM instrument list + combos), drums (patterns + percussion notes), abc-syntax (notation reference), arrangements (multi-voice patterns), genres (complete ABC templates for jazz/blues/folk/rock/bossa/classical), styles (what each style preset does), midi-directives (%%MIDI reference).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
topicYesReference topic. Start with 'genres' for complete examples, 'styles' to understand presets, or 'instruments' for the full instrument list.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description adds no additional behavioral traits beyond topic content, so it meets baseline without contradiction.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Single sentence front-loads purpose and efficiently lists topics, though slightly dense; no wasted words.

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?

Covers all topics adequately and provides context for output; missing explicit return format, but acceptable for a reference tool with simple input.

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?

Schema covers 100% with enum and description; description adds usage hints (starting points) that enhance understanding beyond schema alone.

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?

Clearly states it returns detailed reference material for music composition, listing specific topics. Sibling tools like 'play-live-pattern' and 'search-music-docs' are distinct, making purpose unambiguous.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Provides starting suggestions ('Start with genres, styles, or instruments'), but does not explicitly contrast with sibling 'get-strudel-guide' or state when not to use.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct area: reference guides for different domains (ABC vs Strudel), live coding playback, sheet music playback, and documentation search. No overlap.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case: get-music-guide, get-strudel-guide, play-live-pattern, play-sheet-music, search-music-docs.

Tool Count5/5

With 5 tools, the set is well-scoped for a music composition and live coding server. Each tool serves a clear purpose without bloat or thinness.

Completeness4/5

Core workflows are covered: reference, live coding, sheet music, and search. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no explicit project management or audio export), but the surface supports the server's purpose.
