D1.4/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are present, so the description carries the full burden. 'Reddit' provides zero insight into whether this is a read-only operation, what data is returned, rate limits, or authentication requirements. The agent has no way to know what side effects or constraints exist.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

One word is extremely brief, but this is under-specification rather than conciseness. The description fails to communicate any meaningful information, so the brevity is not a positive attribute.

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

Completeness1/5

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

With no output schema, no annotations, and 2 parameters that have schema descriptions, the tool description still must explain its purpose and behavior. It does not. For a scraping tool among many similar ones, this is completely inadequate.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The schema already describes both parameters ('Subreddit URL', 'Subreddit name. MUST be case sensitive'), so coverage is 100%. Per rubric, baseline is 3. However, the description itself adds no parameter context beyond the schema—it does not explain how to select or combine the parameters.

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

Purpose1/5

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

The description is just the word 'Reddit,' which is a noun and not a verb. It does not state what the tool does (e.g., scrape posts, get subreddit info). It merely restates the platform in the tool name, failing to specify an action or resource. Sibling tools like 'scrapecreators_subreddit_posts' and 'scrapecreators_comments' indicate more specific operations, but this description gives no differentiation.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus the many sibling scrapecreators tools (e.g., scrapecreators_subreddit_posts, scrapecreators_comments). No conditions, prerequisites, or alternative recommendations are provided.

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

C2/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The tool set has significant overlap and ambiguity, particularly within the 'scrapecreators_' prefix where many tools appear to target similar social media platforms and content types (e.g., 'scrapecreators_posts', 'scrapecreators_posts_get', 'scrapecreators_post', 'scrapecreators_post_get'). Additionally, tools like 'tavily_research' and 'tavily_search' have overlapping purposes with 'web_search_exa', making it difficult for an agent to distinguish when to use each. While some tools like 'get_credits' or 'ideogram_v3' are distinct, the overall set is confusing due to redundant functionalities.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are highly inconsistent across the tool set. There is a mix of snake_case (e.g., 'get_credits'), kebab-case (e.g., 'find-hooks'), and verbose prefixes (e.g., 'scrapecreators_'). The 'scrapecreators_' tools themselves vary in structure, with some using underscores and others not, and there are duplicate names with slight variations (e.g., 'scrapecreators_ad_details' vs. 'scrapecreators_ad_details_get'). This lack of a predictable pattern makes the tool set chaotic and hard to navigate.

Tool Count1/5

With 124 tools, the count is extremely high and inappropriate for the server's purpose, which appears to be marketing and social media data collection. This many tools suggests poor scoping, likely due to redundancy (e.g., multiple scraping tools for similar platforms) and overlapping functionalities. A well-scoped server in this domain should have far fewer tools, typically in the range of 10-30, to avoid overwhelming agents and ensure clarity.

Completeness4/5

Despite the high tool count and redundancy, the server covers a broad range of marketing-related functions comprehensively. It includes tools for social media hooks, content validation, SEO analysis (e.g., backlinks, keywords), voice archetypes, copywriting frameworks, and extensive scraping across multiple platforms. There are no obvious major gaps for the marketing domain, as it supports data gathering, content creation, and analysis across various networks and metrics, allowing agents to perform core marketing workflows effectively.
