list_mcp_server_user_access

Read-onlyIdempotent

Lists per-user access for an MCP server, returning default access mode, override flags, and connection status so you can audit who can use it before updating permissions.

Instructions

List per-user access for an MCP server. Returns the default access mode, override flags, and connection status so you can audit who can use it; use before update_mcp_server_user_access.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and destructiveHint, so the safety profile is carried by structured data. The description adds the audit framing and which attributes are surfaced (default access mode, override flags, connection status), but that overlaps with the output schema and says nothing about pagination despite page_size/current_page parameters.

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?

Two short clauses, front-loaded with the verb and resource, then the audit purpose and sequencing hint. Every sentence contributes and nothing is padded.

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?

With an output schema and fully-described parameters, the description only needs to convey purpose and placement in the workflow, which it does. The one soft gap is that pagination and result-set behavior aren't mentioned, though the schema covers the parameters.

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%, with id, page_size (max 100) and current_page (zero-based) fully documented. The description adds no parameter meaning beyond that, so the baseline 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource: 'List per-user access for an MCP server,' which separates it from list_mcp_servers and get_mcp_server. It names the write counterpart (update_mcp_server_user_access) but doesn't explicitly contrast itself with other read siblings, keeping it just short of a 5.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives a concrete reason to call it ('so you can audit who can use it') and a sequencing rule ('use before update_mcp_server_user_access'). It stops short of stating when not to use it or naming an alternative source of the same data.

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