Tool access control
Enable or disable individual tools per connector, so you decide what your agents can and cannot do.
Managed credentials
Glama handles OAuth flows, token storage, and automatic rotation, so credentials never expire on your clients.
Usage analytics
See which tools your agents call, how often, and when, so you can understand usage patterns and catch anomalies.
Tool Definition Quality
Average 3.6/5 across 4 of 4 tools scored.
Each tool targets a distinct operation: explain_rating for detailed rating breakdown, get_tool_card for full card retrieval, recommend_tools for task-based suggestions, and search_tools for querying the database. No overlapping purposes.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (explain_rating, get_tool_card, recommend_tools, search_tools) using snake_case, making the set predictable.
With only 4 tools, the server is tightly scoped to cover core operations (search, retrieve details, explain ratings, recommend) without excess or deficiency.
The tool set covers the primary needs of a tool registry: searching, retrieving individual cards, explaining ratings, and getting recommendations. There are no obvious gaps given the stated purpose.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. The description adds no additional behavioral context such as side effects, error handling, or data freshness. It merely restates the purpose.
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, clear sentence with no filler. Every word contributes to understanding the tool's function.
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?
Given the simple tool (1 required param, output schema exists), the description covers the return content (dimensions, explanations, penalties, boosts). It is complete enough for an agent to decide to invoke it, though it could mention what happens if tool_id is invalid.
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?
With 100% schema coverage and only one parameter, the description adds value by specifying the origin of tool_id ('usually obtained from search_tools results'), which aids agent understanding. Baseline 3 is exceeded.
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 clearly states the verb 'Return' and the specific resource: 'rating dimensions, explanations, penalties, and boosts for one tool_id.' It distinguishes itself from siblings like get_tool_card (which likely returns a tool card) and search_tools (which searches for tools).
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 does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It only implies usage when needing rating details for a single tool, but lacks exclusions or comparisons to sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds that it returns one Tool Card and Rating Result, but does not disclose any behavioral traits beyond what annotations imply. Since annotations carry the burden, the description adds minimal value.
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?
Single sentence that is front-loaded with the action and resource. No wasted words; every part earns its place.
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?
Given the existence of an output schema, clear annotations, and full schema coverage for the single parameter, the description is sufficient for a simple retrieval tool. It lacks mention of error conditions or rate limits, but these are not critical for such a tool.
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% and the only parameter (tool_id) is well-described in the schema. The description's mention of 'stable tool_id' reinforces the schema but does not add new meaning. Baseline of 3 is appropriate.
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?
Description clearly states the verb 'Return', resource 'Tool Card and its Rating Result', and specifies the key identifier 'by stable tool_id'. It distinguishes from siblings like search_tools (search), recommend_tools (recommendation), and explain_rating (explanation) by focusing on fetching a single card by ID.
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 mentions 'usually obtained from search_tools results', implying a usage flow from search to card retrieval. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or compare it to sibling tools like recommend_tools or explain_rating. The guidance is implied but not fully explicit.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
recommend_toolsRecommend toolsBRead-onlyInspect
Recommend known tools for a task using request-scoped LLM credentials when required.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| task | Yes | Natural-language development task for which Agent Radar should recommend suitable AI tools. | |
| model | No | LLM provider model identifier recognized by Agent Radar. Omit it to use the server-configured or registry default model. | |
| top_k | No | Maximum number of recommended candidates to return, from 1 to 50. Defaults to 5 when omitted. | |

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, indicating a safe read operation. The description adds that it uses 'request-scoped LLM credentials when required,' which is useful but lacks detail on credential handling or side effects. It does not contradict annotations.
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 sentence, making it concise. It front-loads the core action ('Recommend known tools for a task') but adds a somewhat redundant clause about credentials. Could be slightly tighter, but overall 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?
Given the tool has 11 parameters, a rich schema, and an output schema, the description is minimal. It does not explain what 'known tools' means or provide context for the recommendation task. The output schema covers return values, so completeness is adequate but not thorough.
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 coverage is 100%, with all 11 parameters described in detail. The description does not add additional meaning beyond the schema. Baseline of 3 is appropriate.
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 clearly states the tool's purpose: to recommend known tools for a task. It uses a specific verb ('Recommend') and resource ('tools'), and the action is distinct from its siblings (explain_rating, get_tool_card, search_tools).
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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like search_tools or get_tool_card. The mention of 'request-scoped LLM credentials' hints at a specific context but does not compare or contrast with sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. The description does not contradict these but adds minimal behavioral context beyond stating the search operation. It could mention ranking or return behavior.
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?
A single sentence of 12 words that is front-loaded with the core action and resource. Every word is necessary, and the structure is clean and 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?
Given the tool's moderate complexity (3 parameters, nested object, output schema exists), the description is largely complete. It covers the main filtering options. A hint about semantic search or ranking would improve completeness, but not essential.
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%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description only paraphrases the parameters without adding new meaning. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
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 clearly states the verb 'Search', the resource 'Agent Radar Tool Cards', and the parameters 'by query text and optional type, tag, or risk filters'. It effectively differentiates from sibling tools like explain_rating, get_tool_card, and recommend_tools.
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 searching with filters but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like recommend_tools or get_tool_card. No when-not-to-use or contextual guidance is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
