SJTU MCP
Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.1.1
- Disambiguation3/5
sjtu_cheap_task and sjtu_text both handle text tasks, creating potential confusion. sjtu_cheap_task specifies common low-risk jobs, but the boundary with sjtu_text is unclear. sjtu_models and sjtu_vision are distinct.
Naming Consistency4/5All tools share the consistent 'sjtu_' prefix and snake_case naming, but the pattern varies between adjective_noun (sjtu_cheap_task) and noun-only (sjtu_models, sjtu_text, sjtu_vision), which is mostly consistent with minor deviations.
Tool Count5/5Four tools is well-scoped for the SJTU endpoint, covering essential capabilities (listing models, text, vision, and a cheap task option) without unnecessary bloat.
Completeness4/5The set covers core functionalities, but the overlap between sjtu_cheap_task and sjtu_text suggests redundancy; missing streaming or embeddings are minor gaps for basic use.
Average 2.7/5 across 4 of 4 tools scored.

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
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, and the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as idempotency, side effects, rate limits, or cost. The tool's safety profile (read vs. write) is unclear.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence but lacks necessary detail. It is under-specified rather than appropriately concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With 5 parameters, no annotations, and an output schema not described, the description fails to provide a complete picture. The tool's return value and parameter usage are left unspecified.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, and the description adds no meaning beyond the parameter names. It does not explain the role of model, system_prompt, temperature, or max_tokens.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states the verb 'run' and resource 'plain text task' against a specific API. It distinguishes from vision tasks but does not clarify what 'plain text task' entails compared to the sibling sjtu_cheap_task.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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 like sjtu_cheap_task or sjtu_vision. No context on cost, speed, or prerequisites.
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?
No annotations provided, and the description only says 'low-risk jobs,' which hints at safety but does not disclose actual behavioral traits like idempotency, side effects, or permission requirements.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, concise but lacking structure. It is front-loaded with the main purpose, but does not expand on important details, making it minimally adequate.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 5 parameters with no descriptions and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not specify valid task types, content format, or how image path/url are used, which is insufficient for correct invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, and the description adds no meaning to any of the 5 parameters (task, content, image_path, etc.). It fails to explain valid values or parameter purposes beyond what the schema already shows.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool routes common low-risk jobs like summarize, rewrite, classify, and extract, giving a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools by implying a generic task router, though it could be more precise.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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. The description only lists example jobs, lacking when-not-to-use or comparisons with siblings like sjtu_text or sjtu_vision.
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?
With no annotations, the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It only states that the tool runs an image understanding task, but does not explain side effects, authentication needs, return type, or limitations. The minimal description is insufficient for safe usage.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single short sentence with no extraneous content. However, it sacrifices clarity for brevity; it could be more informative without adding much length.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 7 parameters, no annotations, and an existing but undescribed output schema, the description is too minimal. It does not explain parameter interplay (e.g., image_path vs image_url) or output format, leaving significant gaps for effective invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It adds no explanation for parameters such as prompt, image_path, image_url, model, system_prompt, temperature, or max_tokens, leaving their semantics entirely to interpretation from names.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Run an image understanding task against the default vision model', which clearly indicates a verb and resource. However, 'image understanding task' is vague and does not specify the exact capability (e.g., captioning, VQA), and it fails to distinguish from sibling tools like sjtu_cheap_task or sjtu_text.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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 over alternatives like sjtu_cheap_task or sjtu_text. No prerequisites or exclusions are mentioned, leaving the agent to guess appropriate contexts.
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?
With no annotations, the description should disclose behavioral traits. It only states the action (list) but does not explain that it is a read-only operation, any potential side effects, or required permissions. The agent has no additional context beyond the basic purpose.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no unnecessary words. It conveys the core functionality efficiently.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has no parameters, the description is somewhat adequate but lacks usage context. It does not explain how the output schema relates to usage or provide hints for integration with sibling tools. The presence of an output schema mitigates the need for return value details, but the description could be more helpful by mentioning use cases.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are no parameters, so schema coverage is trivially 100%. The description adds no parameter info, which is acceptable as there is nothing to describe. Baseline 4 for zero parameters is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb (List), resource (available models), and source (SJTU endpoint). It effectively differentiates from sibling tools like sjtu_cheap_task, sjtu_text, and sjtu_vision, which target different operations.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or conditions for using sjtu_models.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
