Metabolights

Recall

Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve a value previously saved via remember, or list all saved keys (omit the key argument). Use to look up context the agent stored earlier — the user's target ticker, an address, prior research notes — without re-deriving it from scratch. Scoped to your identifier (anonymous IP, BYO key hash, or account ID). Pair with remember to save, forget to delete.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint. Description adds context about scoping by identifier and behavior when key is omitted, adding value beyond annotations.

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?

Every sentence adds value; front-loaded with main action. Concise yet informative.

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?

Complete for a simple tool with one parameter and good annotations. Slightly more detail on return format could improve, but not necessary.

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% and already explains the parameter behavior. Description adds no new information beyond schema, meeting baseline but not exceeding.

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?

Description clearly states the action (retrieve/list) and resource (saved keys/values), and distinguishes from sibling tools like remember and forget.

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 explicit examples of when to use (look up stored context) and mentions pairing with remember/forget, but does not explicitly 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.

B3.3/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

The vast majority of tools (e.g., ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, etc.) are unrelated to Metabolights and overlap heavily with each other in purpose. Only two tools (get_study and search_studies) are clearly distinct and relevant to the server's stated domain.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names are highly inconsistent, mixing snake_case (get_study, search_studies), camelCase (ask_pipeworx), and varied verb styles (e.g., validate_claim vs bet_research). No consistent pattern across the set.

Tool Count1/5

With 28 tools, the server is extremely overpopulated for its stated purpose (Metabolights). Only 2 tools actually pertain to metabolomics study access, while the remaining 26 are general-purpose or unrelated (e.g., bet_research, polymarket_edges), making the count highly inappropriate.

Completeness1/5

The Metabolights domain severely lacks completeness: only search_studies and get_study are provided, with no create, update, delete, or upload functionality. The server fails to cover essential operations for its supposed domain.
