Idempotent

Save data the agent will need to reuse later — across this conversation or across sessions. Use when you discover something worth carrying forward (a resolved ticker, a target address, a user preference, a research subject) so you don't have to look it up again. Stored as a key-value pair scoped by your identifier. Authenticated users get persistent memory; anonymous sessions retain memory for 24 hours. Pair with recall to retrieve later, forget to delete.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate idempotent and non-destructive. The description adds context about retention periods (persistent for authenticated, 24h for anonymous) and scoping by identifier, enhancing understanding 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?

The description is a focused paragraph of 5 sentences, front-loaded with purpose, followed by usage guidance and technical details. No redundant information.

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 simple store tool, the description covers purpose, usage, persistence, and pairing with siblings. Lack of output schema details is acceptable as return values are likely trivial or implied.

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%. The description adds naming conventions and examples for key-value pairs, providing marginal extra value beyond the schema descriptions.

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 saves data for reuse across conversations/sessions, specifies key-value storage, and distinguishes from siblings 'recall' 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?

The description explicitly lists when to use the tool (e.g., discovered tickers, preferences) and covers scope and persistence differences, though it doesn't explicitly state when not to use it.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Many tools overlap in purpose: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, ask_pipeworx_beta, and deep_research all perform similar data lookups with slight variations. Prediction market tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges) also overlap. Only the three PDBe-specific tools are clearly distinct, but overall the set is confusing.

Naming Consistency1/5

Tool names follow no consistent pattern: some are verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, get_molecules), others are noun_verb (ai_visibility_check), or have mixed conventions (generate_llms_txt, uniprot_mappings). The variety of verbs (ask, bet, compare, discover, generate, get, list, recall, remember) makes it hard to predict tool names.

Tool Count2/5

With 34 tools, the server is overstuffed for a single domain. It mixes PDBe-specific tools (3) with a large set of general-purpose data tools, prediction market tools, subscriptions, and memory tools. This bloat suggests the server should be split into focused services.

Completeness1/5

For the stated PDBe domain, only three tools exist (get_molecules, get_summary, uniprot_mappings), missing essential operations like search, download, or advanced queries. The server's overall purpose is unclear, and it feels like a random collection of tools rather than a coherent API.
