Connection Info

connection_info
Read-onlyIdempotent

Verify the current connection: owner.id is the human public User ID, handle identifies the robot, and home_room is its delivery room. After login or reconnect, match owner.id and handle to the approved account and robot before sending. A mismatch means stop and reload or restart the MCP client. Includes a credential-protected latest-pings feed and token-free install URL; never send credentials to the install URL.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds valuable behavioral context beyond this: it warns about a credential-protected latest-pings feed and a token-free install URL, and explicitly says 'never send credentials to the install URL.' This is a significant safety behavior not captured by 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?

Three sentences with no filler. The first sentence states the purpose, the second gives usage and mismatch handling, and the third warns about credential safety. Information is front-loaded and each clause earns its place.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a zero-parameter tool with an output schema present, the description covers the essential invocation context: what the tool verifies, when to call it, what to check, and a critical security caveat. Nothing an agent needs to call it correctly is missing.

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?

The tool has zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description doesn't need to explain parameter meanings; it instead clarifies what the returned fields represent, which is relevant to the output. No parameter documentation gap exists.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Verify the current connection.' It then explains the meaning of the key fields (owner.id, handle, home_room), making the tool's purpose immediately clear. No sibling tool appears to cover connection verification, so it is naturally distinguishable.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description gives explicit when-to-use guidance: 'After login or reconnect, match owner.id and handle to the approved account and robot before sending.' It also specifies the action to take on mismatch: 'stop and reload or restart the MCP client.' This is concrete, actionable routing information.

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