Retrieve detailed information about a specific open file using its unique ID in Flutter apps for debugging and analysis, integrated with the Flutter Inspector MCP Server.

Instructions

RPC: Get details of a specific open file by its ID

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
fileIdYesID of the file to get details for
portNoPort number where the Flutter app is running (defaults to 8181)
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions 'RPC' and 'Get details', implying a read-only operation, but does not disclose behavioral traits such as error handling, permissions needed, rate limits, or what 'details' include. This leaves significant gaps for an agent to understand the tool's behavior.

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?

The description is a single, efficient sentence with no wasted words. It is front-loaded with the core purpose, making it easy to parse quickly.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given no annotations and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what 'details' are returned, potential errors, or how it interacts with the Flutter app context. For a tool with 2 parameters and no structured output, more context is needed to be fully helpful.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema fully documents both parameters ('fileId' and 'port'). The description does not add any meaning beyond the schema, such as explaining the format of 'fileId' or typical 'port' values. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema handles parameter documentation.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description states the tool 'Get details of a specific open file by its ID', which provides a clear verb ('Get details') and resource ('open file'). However, it does not differentiate from siblings like 'dart_io_get_open_files' (which likely lists multiple files) or explain what 'details' entail, making it somewhat vague.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. For example, it does not specify if this is for retrieving metadata, content, or status of a file, or when to choose it over 'dart_io_get_open_files'. The description lacks context or exclusions.

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