Glama MCP Gateway
Connect through Glama MCP Gateway for full control over tool access and complete visibility into every call.
Full call logging
Every tool call is logged with complete inputs and outputs, so you can debug issues and audit what your agents are doing.
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 4.2/5 across 2 of 2 tools scored.
The two tools have clearly distinct purposes: one searches documentation, the other reads specific pages. No overlap or confusion possible.
Both tools follow the same snake_case naming convention with 'qt_documentation_' prefix and a verb suffix, ensuring predictability.
With only 2 tools, the server is minimal but covers the essential functions of searching and reading. It is slightly thin but not unreasonable for a focused documentation server.
The tool set provides search and read functionality, which covers the core workflow. However, missing features like listing categories or browsing modules are minor gaps that agents can work around.
Available Tools
2 toolsqt_documentation_readAInspect
Read the full content of a specific Qt documentation page. Use the filename shown in search results.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| file | Yes | Filename of the Qt documentation page. Use ONLY the filename from search results (e.g., 'signalsandslots.html' NOT full paths with version numbers). Module paths like 'qtcore/qobject.html' also work. | |
| version | No | Optional: Qt version to read from (e.g., '6.10.0', '6.9.0'). Defaults to latest installed version if not specified. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the burden. It does not disclose error handling (e.g., missing file), response format, or any constraints beyond parameter descriptions in the schema.
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 extremely concise at two sentences, with no wasted words. It effectively conveys the core purpose.
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?
The description is adequate for a simple read tool with no output schema. It covers the purpose and usage hint, but lacks details on return content or potential errors.
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 detailed parameter descriptions. The main description adds only a usage hint that reinforces the schema, not adding significant new meaning.
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 'Read' and resource 'Qt documentation page', and distinguishes from the sibling tool 'qt_documentation_search' by instructing to use the filename shown in search results.
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 a clear usage hint: 'Use the filename shown in search results,' implying this tool is used after searching. It does not explicitly state when not to use it, but the context suggests it follows search.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
qt_documentation_searchAInspect
Call qt_documentation_search when: (a) you're about to claim a signal/slot/property/default exists, (b) the API is in Qt 6.7+ or a non-core module (MQTT, OPC UA, Network Auth, etc), (c) the user used the words 'docs', 'official', 'verify', or 'check'. Skip when: the question is about basic QString/QObject/signal-slot syntax.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | No | Search query for Qt documentation (e.g., 'Animation', 'QTimer', 'signal slot'). Optional if 'keywords' is provided. | |
| filter | No | Optional: Filter by document type. Default is 'all'. | |
| intent | No | Optional: Prioritizes (not filters) results by type. 'api'=class reference, 'tutorial'=how-to guides, 'guide'=overviews, 'concept'=explanations, 'example'=code samples, 'migration'=porting guides. | |
| module | No | Optional: Limit search to specific Qt module (e.g., 'qtcore', 'qtwidgets', 'qtqml', 'qtquick', 'qtnetwork') | |
| product | No | Optional: Limit search to a specific documentation product (e.g. 'qt', 'qtcreator', 'pyside6'). Omit to search all products. | |
| version | No | Optional: Qt version to search (e.g., '6.10.0', '6.9.0'). Defaults to latest installed version if not specified. | |
| keywords | No | Optional: Array of keywords to search for. Results match ANY keyword. Example: ["button", "signal", "connect"]. Alternative to 'query' for better multi-term matching. | |
| max_results | No | Optional: Maximum number of results to return (1-10). Default is 3. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses the tool's search scope (Qt 6.7+ or non-core modules) and that 'intent' prioritizes results, but does not mention whether it is read-only or the return format. Still, it provides reasonable behavioral context.
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 highly concise, using a 'when/skip' structure that front-loads key conditions. Every sentence serves a purpose, and no extraneous information is included.
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 8 parameters, 100% schema coverage, and no output schema, the description adequately covers usage scenarios and parameter behavior. However, it lacks information about return values or error handling, which would be helpful for a search 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%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by clarifying usage: e.g., 'intent' prioritizes vs filters, 'max_results' defaults to 3, and 'keywords' as an alternative to 'query'. These nuances enhance understanding beyond the schema.
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 search Qt documentation. It gives specific conditions when to use (e.g., verify API existence, for Qt 6.7+ or non-core modules) and when to skip (basic syntax), effectively distinguishing it from the sibling tool 'qt_documentation_read'.
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 explicitly lists when to call the tool (conditions a, b, c) and when to skip (basic syntax questions), providing clear usage guidance without ambiguity.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
