SaSame MCP Observatory + Gold Rush Town

provenance_passport_spec

Read-only

Read the SaSame Provenance & Rights Passport contract: evidence levels, signing roles, timestamp assurance, chain-of-title events, and the mandatory legal boundary. Read-only; never creates or registers copyright. SaSame, operated by SASAME S.R.L., continuously observes and measures the Model Context Protocol ecosystem and publishes verifiable evidence and history; the MCP Factory is internal machinery and an optional product surface behind it; measurement only, not endorsement.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The readOnlyHint annotation already declares read-only behavior, and the description reinforces this ('Read-only; never creates or registers copyright'). It adds useful extra context ('measurement only, not endorsement') and explains the broader purpose of SaSame. No contradictions with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is front-loaded with the core purpose and content enumeration. The first two sentences are concise and purposeful. The third sentence about SaSame observing and measuring the MCP ecosystem is somewhat tangential and could be trimmed, but it is not redundant or excessive.

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?

Despite having no output schema, the description provides a detailed enumeration of the contract's content and notes the mandatory legal boundary. It also clarifies that it is measurement-only and non-endorsing. The only gap is not explicitly describing the return format, but for a read-only spec tool this is minor.

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?

There are zero parameters, so the schema provides nothing. The description compensates by explaining exactly what the contract contains (evidence levels, signing roles, etc.), giving the agent a clear idea of what the tool will retrieve. This meets the baseline for no-param tools.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'read' and the specific resource 'Provence & Rights Passport contract', and enumerates its contents. It is not a tautology and does not mislead, but it does not explicitly differentiate from siblings like lookup_passport or provenance_verify_passport, which weakens distinction.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description gives context about being read-only and never creating copyright, but does not specify when to use this tool over alternatives or mention any exclusions. There is no explicit guidance on selection criteria, leaving the agent to infer usage from the tool name.

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

B3.1/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

With 94 tools spanning overlapping concepts (multiple readiness/audit/grade tools, many status checkers, deprecated aliases like trust_* vs observation_*), agents will frequently struggle to pick the right one. While each tool is individually distinct, the sheer volume and conceptual overlap (e.g., audit_mcp, readiness_report, verify_mcp_ready, lookup_readiness, recommend_mcp, subscribe_grade_changes) create high misselection risk.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools use snake_case with underscores, but the pattern is inconsistent: some are verb-first (audit_mcp, verify_mcp_ready, claim_start, check_engagement) while others are noun-first (receipt_issue, meter_open, work_order_open, agent_invoice_status). Deprecated aliases like trust_compare vs observation_compare further break consistency, though the majority remain readable.

Tool Count1/5

94 tools is far beyond any reasonable scope for a single server, even one with broad ambitions like 'observatory + town'. The calibration notes 50+ as extreme mismatch; this server far exceeds that. Many tools are highly specific (e.g., factory_resolve_dead_letter, visit_touch_status, start_here) and could be consolidated or split into separate servers.

Completeness3/5

The server covers a wide range of domains (auditing, claiming, receipts, meters, escrow, work orders, gold rush, town, analytics) and offers many CRUD-like operations, but several lifecycle gaps exist: no cancel/close for work orders (only open/accept/deliver/accept_delivery), escrow (only open/attest/status), or meters (only open/charge/status). Given the massive scope, important operations are missing, though core workflows are present.
