Server Details
Trefle MCP — global plant database (1M+ species)
The last two health checks of this connector failed. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.
If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

TDQS
Scored across 19 tools
The server mixes plant tools with a large set of Pipeworx data tools. The catch-all 'ask_pipeworx' overlaps with many specific tools like 'validate_claim' and 'compare_entities', making it unclear which tool an agent should use. Plant tools are distinct but coexist with unrelated tools, causing ambiguity.
Tool names use mixed conventions: snake_case verbs (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities), single verbs (forget, recall, remember), and noun_noun compounds (entity_profile, polymarket_arbitrage). No consistent pattern is followed, reducing predictability.
With 19 tools spanning two unrelated domains (plant data and Pipeworx data query), the server is overburdened. The plant domain has only 5 tools, while the Pipeworx domain adds 14, making the set feel bloated and unfocused for a server named 'Trefle'.
For the plant domain, the tools cover search and retrieval reasonably well, but miss common operations like filtering or listing all plants. The Pipeworx tools are extensive but include meta-tools (e.g., 'discover_tools') that indicate an incomplete surface. Overall, the server's dual purpose leaves gaps in both areas.
