Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.2.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct entity or action. List tools all differ by the entity they list (e.g., assets, competencies, departments), and lookup tools (get, find) are clearly separated from lists. No overlap in purpose.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent pattern: 'peopleforce_' + verb (list, get, find) + '_' + entity. The verb clearly indicates the action, and all names use lowercase with underscores, ensuring predictability.

    Tool Count2/5

    With 28 tools, the server exceeds the typical well-scoped range of 3-15 and falls into the 'too many' category (25+). While the HR domain has many entities, the sheer number of list tools feels excessive, especially since many are simple reference data lookups.

    Completeness2/5

    The tool set is heavily skewed towards read-only list operations. Missing dedicated create/update/delete tools for core entities like employees and leave requests, forcing agents to rely on the raw API escape hatch. This leaves significant gaps in typical HR workflows.

  • Average 3.6/5 across 28 of 28 tools scored.

To manually sync the server, click the "Sync Server" button in the MCP server admin interface.

How is the quality score calculated?

The overall quality score combines two components: Tool Definition Quality (70%) and Server Coherence (30%).

Tool Definition Quality measures how well each tool describes itself to AI agents. Every tool is scored 1–5 across six dimensions: Purpose Clarity (25%), Usage Guidelines (20%), Behavioral Transparency (20%), Parameter Semantics (15%), Conciseness & Structure (10%), and Contextual Completeness (10%). The server-level definition quality score is calculated as 60% mean TDQS + 40% minimum TDQS, so a single poorly described tool pulls the score down.

Server Coherence evaluates how well the tools work together as a set, scoring four dimensions equally: Disambiguation (can agents tell tools apart?), Naming Consistency, Tool Count Appropriateness, and Completeness (are there gaps in the tool surface?).

Tiers are derived from the overall score: A (≥3.5), B (≥3.0), C (≥2.0), D (≥1.0), F (<1.0). B and above is considered passing.

Tool Scores

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already indicate this is a read-only, non-destructive operation. The description adds no further behavioral context beyond the resource type, but does not contradict annotations. A score of 3 is appropriate given annotations provide baseline safety info.

    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 extremely concise at 5 words, with no wasted text. It is front-loaded with the core action. However, it may be too brief for some contexts, but as conciseness is valued, a 4 is fair.

    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 output schema and the complexity of a paginated list, the description lacks details on pagination behavior, result structure, or filtering. It does not fully equip the agent to understand the tool's capabilities.

    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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-specific details; page and per_page are explained only by the schema. This is adequate but does not enhance understanding.

    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 tool lists job profiles and clarifies they are 'role descriptions'. It uses a specific verb+resource pattern, distinguishing it from sibling tools like list_employees or list_positions.

    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. There is no mention of prerequisites, exclusions, or preferred contexts, leaving the agent without decision support.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds 'cross-functional groupings' but provides no additional behavioral traits (e.g., pagination behavior, rate limits, or result structure beyond schema).

    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?

    Single sentence with parenthetical is concise and front-loaded. No wasted words, though it could be slightly more informative.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    For a simple list tool with no output schema and only pagination parameters, the description is adequate but lacks usage context that would help an agent decide when to use it over similar tools.

    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 coverage is 100% with adequate descriptions for 'page' (1-based, default 1) and 'per_page' (max 100, default 50). The tool description adds no parameter-specific information, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the verb 'List' and resource 'teams', with parenthetical explanation 'cross-functional groupings' to clarify the concept. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like peopleforce_list_departments or peopleforce_list_divisions.

    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 on when to use this tool vs. alternatives. The description does not mention any context, prerequisites, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer from the name alone.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, so the description is consistent. However, it adds no extra behavioral context beyond 'list all', such as pagination behavior or the fact that no filtering is possible. With annotations, this is adequate but not enhanced.

    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, concise sentence that front-loads the core purpose. No unnecessary words or repetition.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    For a simple list tool with two parameters and full schema coverage, the description is adequate. However, it could be more complete by noting that it returns a paginated list of all assets (no employee filter), especially given many similar list siblings.

    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% for both parameters (page and per_page). The description does not add any additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

    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 tool lists assets/equipment in the company, with a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'peopleforce_list_employee_assets', which lists assets for a specific employee.

    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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives. For example, it does not mention that this lists all company assets, while 'peopleforce_list_employee_assets' is for a specific employee. Also, no instruction on pagination or filtering.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already indicate readOnly and non-destructive behavior. The description does not add behavioral context beyond what annotations provide, but it does not contradict them.

    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?

    Single sentence that is front-loaded and contains no fluff. Every word earns its place.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    The description is sufficient for a simple list tool with well-schema'd parameters, but it does not clarify the return format or that results are paginated, which would be helpful without an output schema.

    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 has 100% coverage with descriptions for page and per_page. The description adds no additional parameter meaning.

    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 'list' and resource 'organizational divisions', distinguishing it from sibling tools like list_departments or list_teams. However, it lacks additional detail about scope or hierarchy.

    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 on when to use this tool versus the many sibling list tools. It does not provide any context for selection or exclusions.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the bar is lower. The description adds no additional behavioral context beyond what annotations provide, which is acceptable but not additive.

    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?

    Single sentence, no unnecessary words, front-loaded with action and resource.

    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?

    For a tool with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description is too minimal. It does not mention pagination, expected response format, or any constraints, leaving the agent with incomplete context.

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

    Parameters2/5

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

    Schema coverage is only 33%, and the description does not explain the meaning or purpose of 'page' or 'per_page' parameters. Only employee_id is described in the schema; the description adds no extra clarification.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the action (list) and resource (documents attached to a specific employee's profile), distinguishing it from sibling tools like peopleforce_list_employees or peopleforce_list_employee_assets.

    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 on when to use this tool vs alternatives, no mention of required employee_id or pagination parameters, and no context about prerequisites or use cases.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the description adds no behavioral context beyond the verb 'list'. It does not mention pagination behavior, response size limits, or any side effects beyond what annotations already convey.

    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, well-structured sentence with no wasted words. It is appropriately sized for a simple listing function.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    For a simple list tool with no output schema, the description provides the basic purpose but does not specify what fields are returned (e.g., skill names, IDs). It is minimally viable but lacks completeness for an agent to fully infer the response format.

    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 coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters (page, per_page). The tool description does not add further meaning, so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description 'List skills tracked in the skills matrix' clearly states the verb (list), resource (skills), and scope (skills matrix), distinguishing it from sibling list tools like peopleforce_list_departments or peopleforce_list_locations.

    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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites, and no mentioned context that would help an agent decide. It is purely a statement of function.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    The description adds no behavioral context beyond what annotations already provide. Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, but the description does not elaborate on return format, pagination behavior, or any side effects.

    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 short sentence with no extraneous information. It is front-loaded and every word is necessary.

    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?

    For a simple read-only list tool with pagination parameters documented in the schema, the description is fairly complete. It could mention that it returns a paginated list of holidays, but the core purpose is clear.

    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% (both 'page' and 'per_page' have descriptions). The description does not add any additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description 'List official company holidays' clearly states the action (list) and the resource (official company holidays). It distinguishes the tool from other list_* siblings such as list_leave_requests or list_employees by specifying the exact resource.

    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 lacks any guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as when you need holiday data for a specific period. No when-to-use or when-not-to-use information is provided.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already indicate read-only and non-destructive behavior. Description adds minimal context about the domain (performance reviews) but does not deepen transparency beyond annotations.

    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?

    Single sentence with no wasted words, front-loaded with verb and resource. Appropriate length for its simplicity.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    Adequate for a simple list tool with pagination parameters, but lacks mention of return format or pagination metadata. Given annotations and schema richness, it is minimally complete.

    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 already documents both parameters fully. Description adds no additional parameter-specific meaning beyond baseline.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    Description clearly states verb 'List' and resource 'competencies' with context 'used in performance reviews', distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'peopleforce_list_skills'.

    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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. With many sibling list tools, such direction would be helpful.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations (readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false) already establish safety. Description adds the fact that filtering by employee_id and state is supported, which goes beyond annotations. However, it does not disclose pagination behavior (page, per_page) or potential rate limits. Behavioral details are adequate but not exhaustive.

    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 sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no redundant words. Every sentence adds distinct value: purpose, usage scenarios, and filter support. Ideal conciseness.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    Adequate for a simple read-only list tool: covers purpose, usage, and key filters. Lacks explanation of pagination (page/per_page) and response format (no output schema). With 5 parameters and no output schema, more context would help agents invoke correctly.

    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 60% (page and per_page lack descriptions). The description mentions support for employee_id and state filters, adding value. However, it does not explain page and per_page (pagination) or leave_type_id, which the schema does describe. The description partially compensates for schema gaps but not fully.

    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?

    Clearly states the verb 'List' and resource 'leave/time-off requests'. Gives concrete use cases ('who's on vacation', balance queries, approvals). However, does not explicitly differentiate from sibling list tools (e.g., list_employees, list_leave_types), which slightly reduces uniqueness clarity for an agent.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

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

    Provides contextual usage hints ('who's on vacation', balance queries, approvals) but offers no guidance on when NOT to use this tool versus alternatives. Missing conditions like 'use list_leave_types for type definitions' or 'use list_employees for employee directory'.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the read-only nature is clear. The description adds no further behavioral details (e.g., pagination behavior, ordering, or total count availability), but does not contradict annotations.

    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, clear sentence with no fluff. Every word adds value, making it highly concise and front-loaded.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    Given the tool's simplicity (two integer parameters, no output schema), the description is adequate but lacks details on default ordering, filtering capabilities, or return format. This is a minor gap for a paginated list.

    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%. Both parameters (page, per_page) are fully described in the schema. The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states 'List candidates in the ATS pipeline,' specifying the verb (list), resource (candidates), and scope (ATS pipeline). This distinguishes it from siblings like peopleforce_list_recruitment_pipelines.

    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. There is no mention of exclusions, prerequisites, or context for choosing this over other list tools.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, and destructiveHint, so the description carries less burden. It adds the context of what sources represent, but does not describe pagination behavior, rate limits, or any side effects beyond what annotations imply.

    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?

    Single sentence, front-loaded with action and resource, no extraneous words. Every part earns its place.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    For a simple list tool with no output schema and 100% schema coverage, the description is minimally adequate. However, it lacks any explanation of sorting, filtering, or expected response structure, which could be helpful for a tool with many sibling list operations.

    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 coverage is 100% with both parameters described. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the verb 'List' and the resource 'recruitment sources', adding the clarifying parenthetical 'where candidates came from'. This distinguishes it from sibling list tools like peopleforce_list_employees.

    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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as peopleforce_list_recruitment_candidates or other list tools. Context implies it's for listing source options, but no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use information.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already indicate the tool is read-only and non-destructive. The description adds that the response includes manager and parent info, but does not cover pagination or rate limits, which are partially addressed by schema descriptions.

    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?

    Single sentence, no redundancy, front-loaded with key information. Every word adds value.

    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?

    Given the simplicity of the tool (list with pagination), good annotations, and full schema coverage, the description is nearly complete. It lacks return format details but output schema is absent, so the description adequately covers the core functionality.

    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 coverage is 100% with both parameters having clear descriptions. The tool description does not add any further meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the verb 'List', the resource 'departments', and specifies that it includes 'manager and parent info', distinguishing it from sibling tools like list_divisions or list_teams.

    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. Among many sibling list tools, the description does not help an agent decide when to choose this one.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the description adds no new behavioral context. It restates the resource scope but not additional traits like pagination behavior or data freshness.

    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 concise sentence front-loading the purpose with no wasted words.

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

    Completeness3/5

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

    The tool is straightforward (list by employee), but with no output schema and incomplete parameter descriptions, the description leaves gaps about return structure and pagination. Adequate but not thorough.

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

    Parameters2/5

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

    Schema coverage is 33%, with only 'employee_id' having a description in the schema. The tool description reinforces the employee-specific nature but does not explain 'page' and 'per_page' parameters, which remain undocumented.

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the tool lists assets/equipment assigned to a specific employee, distinguishing it from the sibling 'peopleforce_list_assets' which likely lists all assets.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

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

    The description implies usage for getting assets of a specific employee but does not explicitly state when to use it versus 'peopleforce_list_assets' or other siblings. No exclusion or alternative guidance.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the description doesn't need to restate safety. The description adds the example values but no additional behavioral traits like pagination or rate limits. With good annotations, this is adequate.

    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?

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

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

    The description implies usage for finding by email but does not explicitly state when to use this versus peopleforce_get_employee or when not to use it.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    Annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, destructiveHint) already indicate safe, non-destructive read with complete data. The description adds value by specifying the returned content (position, department, manager, custom fields), going beyond annotations.

    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?

    Single sentence, front-loaded with action and resource, no waste. Every word is necessary and clear.

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

    Completeness5/5

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

    For a simple retrieval tool with one parameter, no output schema, and strong annotations, the description is complete. It explains purpose, identifier, and return scope without missing critical information.

    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 coverage is 100% with clear parameter description ('Employee id (numeric)'). The description does not add further meaning beyond 'by PeopleForce id', so baseline of 3 applies.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states the tool gets a single employee by PeopleForce id and lists the returned fields (full profile, position, department, manager, custom fields). It distinguishes from sibling tools like peopleforce_list_employees (multiple) and peopleforce_find_employee_by_email (different lookup).

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

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

    The description implies usage when you have a specific employee id and need full details, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., for listing or email lookup). No exclusions or context provided.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description adds context about raw GET and escape hatch nature, aligning with annotations without contradiction.

    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 sentences, every word earns its place. Front-loaded with 'Escape hatch' and clearly structured.

    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?

    For an escape hatch tool with good annotations and two parameters, description covers purpose, usage, and examples. No output schema needed for raw GET.

    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 coverage is 100% with clear descriptions for both parameters. Description adds example paths but does not significantly extend beyond schema details.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    Clearly states it performs a raw GET against any PeopleForce v3 API path, and distinguishes itself from sibling tools by positioning as an escape hatch when no dedicated tool covers the endpoint.

    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?

    Explicitly says 'Use when no dedicated tool covers the endpoint' and provides example paths. Does not explicitly state when not to use, but implication is clear.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    Beyond annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint), description adds that pagination is supported and only status filter is server-side, giving operational constraints. Could mention if pagination metadata is returned, but still good.

    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 sentences: first states purpose, second provides essential usage guidance. No redundancy, perfectly concise.

    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?

    Lacks output schema and does not describe return structure (e.g., fields per employee), but given many related tools likely share same employee object, it's acceptable. Still could be more complete.

    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?

    Schema already covers all parameters with descriptions (100% coverage), but description adds context that status is the only server-side filter, enhancing meaning beyond schema.

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

    Purpose5/5

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

    The description clearly states 'List employees with pagination' and distinguishes from sibling tool by specifying that only status filter is server-side, implying other filters are not supported server-side, thus differentiating from peopleforce_find_employee_by_email.

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

    Usage Guidelines5/5

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

    Explicitly advises to filter other attributes client-side or use peopleforce_find_employee_by_email, providing clear when-to-use and alternative pathways.

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