Server Quality Checklist

58%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.1

  • Disambiguation4/5

    Most tools have distinct purposes, but some overlap exists (e.g., create_page, append_to_page, quick_note all add content; add_database_row and bulk_add_rows differ only in count). Descriptions help resolve ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency3/5

    Naming mixes patterns: get_ for retrieval, add_/create_ for creation, but also daily_journal, learning_dashboard, quick_note break the verb_noun pattern. Consistency within groups but variation overall.

    Tool Count3/5

    27 tools is on the high side for a single server, potentially overwhelming. However, Notion's feature set is broad, so the count is somewhat justified but still feels heavy.

    Completeness4/5

    Covers most core Notion operations: CRUD for pages and database rows, comments, search, tasks, and specialized dashboards. Missing explicit delete row and full page delete, but archive serves as soft delete.

  • Average 3/5 across 27 of 27 tools scored. Lowest: 2/5.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    Without annotations, the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It states the tool creates a page, implying mutation, but does not mention side effects, required permissions, default behavior for missing parameters, or output structure. The presence of an output schema is not leveraged in the description.

    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 a single sentence, concise and front-loaded with the key action. However, it sacrifices essential details for brevity. A slightly longer description with structured parameter hints would be more helpful without being verbose.

    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?

    Given 4 parameters with zero schema descriptions, no annotations, and many sibling tools, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain parameter meanings, usage context, or how to differentiate from alternatives. The existence of an output schema is not mentioned.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema description coverage is 0% for 4 parameters. The description only hints that 'content' accepts markdown, ignoring 'title', 'parent_id', and 'privacy'. It fails to add meaning beyond parameter names, leaving the agent to guess format and constraints.

    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 verb 'create' and resource 'Notion page', which is clear. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'quick_note' or 'append_to_page' that also create or modify pages. A more specific description of when to use 'create_page' versus these alternatives would improve clarity.

    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?

    No usage guidance is provided. The description does not mention when to use this tool over siblings, nor does it specify prerequisites (e.g., parent page ID required) or context for parameters like 'privacy' and 'parent_id'. This omission makes it difficult for an agent to select the right tool.

    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 are provided, so the description carries full burden. It only says 'Add a new row', but doesn't disclose whether it returns the row, handles duplicates, or requires permissions. Lacks behavioral context.

    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?

    Extremely concise (one sentence) but at the cost of informativeness. For a tool with 3 parameters, the description is under-specified and not a model of good conciseness.

    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?

    Given the complexity (3 params, nested object for properties) and lack of annotations, the description fails to cover essential context like database existence requirement, property constraints, or output. The tool is used in a database context but no details on schema matching or error handling.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema description coverage is 0%. The description does not explain the meaning or expected format of parameters like 'properties' or 'content'. The parameters are just listed without additional context.

    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 'Add a new row to a database' clearly states the action and resource, distinguishing it from sibling tools like update_database_row or bulk_add_rows. However, it provides no elaboration on scope or constraints.

    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 like bulk_add_rows or update_database_row. No prerequisites or exclusions mentioned.

    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 are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only implies a mutation (adding a comment) but does not mention required permissions, rate limits, side effects (e.g., notifications), or response behavior.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence with no wasted words, but it is too terse to convey important details. There is no structure (e.g., bullet points or front-loading) that could improve quick comprehension.

    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 the tool's simplicity (2 params, both required) and the presence of an output schema, the description should at least mention what the tool returns (e.g., comment object). It also fails to contextualize the tool among 26 siblings, increasing the risk of mis-selection.

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

    Parameters1/5

    Does 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 what page_id_or_url or comment_text represent, leaving the agent to guess their format or constraints.

    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 action (add), the resource (comment), and the context (Notion page). It is specific enough to understand the tool's primary function and distinguishes it from read-only siblings like get_comments.

    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 such as append_to_page, add_task, or quick_note. Without explicit usage context, an agent may select an inappropriate tool.

    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 must disclose behavioral traits. It only states the basic operation, omitting details like pagination, comment ordering, inclusion of replies, or endpoint behavior. The agent lacks key information for correct invocation.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence, making it concise. However, it barely adds value beyond the tool name, as it essentially restates the name with minimal context. It could be more informative without sacrificing brevity.

    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?

    Although an output schema exists, the description still lacks completeness for a tool with one parameter and no annotations. It does not mention whether all comments are returned, if there are scope or access considerations, or additional detail provided by the output schema.

    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 description coverage is 0%, yet the description adds no explanation for 'page_id_or_url' beyond implying it identifies a page. The agent cannot infer format or constraints, leaving the parameter under-explained.

    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 'Get all comments on a page,' specifying the action and resource. It distinguishes from the sibling 'add_comment' by focusing on retrieval, but does not explicitly differentiate from other unrelated siblings.

    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 (e.g., query_database or get_page). No prerequisites or limitations are mentioned, leaving the agent to infer usage context.

    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 must disclose behavioral traits. It does not state whether the operation is read-only, idempotent, or has side effects. It also fails to mention return format or pagination, despite an output schema existing.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence with no wasted words, but it is overly brief, sacrificing critical information for brevity. It leaves out parameter details and usage guidance.

    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 the presence of an output schema and absence of annotations, the description is too sparse. It does not cover behavioral context, parameter explanations, or search semantics, making it inadequate for effective tool selection.

    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 description coverage is 0%, requiring the description to explain parameters. Only 'query' is implied by 'keyword'; 'filter_type' and 'limit' are completely unexplained, leaving agents without guidance on their purpose.

    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 it searches Notion for pages and databases by keyword, which is a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like get_page and list_databases, but could be more precise about the scope of search.

    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 like query_database or get_recent_pages. The description lacks context for appropriate usage scenarios.

    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, description must disclose behavior. Only states action is adding rows, but omits details like atomicity, error handling, or return format despite output schema existence.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    Single 7-word sentence is concise but excessively terse for a tool with two parameters and an output schema. Lacks structure; better to include brief usage note.

    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 it's a bulk operation with no annotations and an output schema, description fails to explain return values, performance implications, or limitations. Incomplete for reliable agent invocation.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema description coverage is 0%. Description adds no meaning to parameters 'database_id_or_url' or 'rows' beyond their names. User cannot infer input requirements.

    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 uses specific verb 'add' and resource 'multiple rows to a database', clearly distinguishing from sibling 'add_database_row' which likely handles single row addition.

    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 indications of when to use this tool vs alternatives like 'add_database_row'. Missing context for batch vs single operations.

    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, so description carries full burden. It mentions duplication is non-destructive (creates a copy), but lacks details on consequences (e.g., location of copy, permission requirements) or rate limits.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is concise (one sentence) without redundancy. However, it lacks structure such as bullet points or separation of purpose, usage, and parameters, making it less scannable.

    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 the absence of annotations and low schema coverage, the description is insufficient. It omits details about the output, side effects, and required context (e.g., page existence). An output schema exists but description should still contextualize its use.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema coverage is 0%, and the description provides no explanation for parameters. It fails to define how to specify page_id_or_url or the effect of new_title (e.g., defaults, uniqueness).

    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's purpose: duplicating a page with identical content. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like create_page (which creates a new blank page) and archive_page.

    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. It does not specify prerequisites, such as requiring existing pages, or suggest when not to use it (e.g., for pages with complex content).

    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 exist, so description must provide behavioral context. It states 'query' but does not confirm read-only nature, discuss side effects, error behavior, or rate limits. Minimal transparency.

    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?

    Short and front-loaded with purpose. Examples are helpful but could be more compact or integrated. Efficient use of space, though lacks structure for other parameters.

    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 5 parameters and an output schema, description misses return behavior, error handling, and parameter constraints. Incomplete for a complex query tool.

    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 0%, so description must document parameters. Only filters are explained with examples, but syntax (e.g., operators, JSON structure) is incomplete. Other parameters (sort_by, sort_order, limit, database_id_or_url) receive no explanation.

    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?

    Description clearly states the tool queries a database with filters and sorting. However, it does not distinguish from sibling tools like get_recent_pages or get_today_tasks, which also retrieve database content. The purpose is clear but lacks differentiation.

    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. Agent must infer from context or trial and error. Examples only filter syntax, not usage scenarios.

    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 are not provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It merely states 'Update properties' without explaining whether it overwrites or merges, what happens to omitted properties, 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.

    Conciseness4/5

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

    The description is a single, front-loaded sentence of 7 words. It efficiently conveys the core action but could include more detail without becoming verbose.

    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 the tool's complexity (nested objects, required params, no annotation support), the description is far from complete. It omits return values, error cases, and behavioral nuances.

    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 description coverage is 0%, and the description adds no detail about parameters. It mentions 'properties' only implicitly, leaving page_id_or_url and the structure of the properties object unexplained.

    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 it updates an existing database row, specifying the verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like update_block or update_page_title.

    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. Missing context on prerequisites or when not to use.

    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 exist, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It lacks information on whether the operation is destructive, requires permissions, or affects page URLs. The minimal description leaves the agent unaware of 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.

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence, achieving brevity but sacrificing necessary detail. It is front-loaded but does not add value beyond stating the obvious from the tool name. Every sentence earns its place, but it could be enhanced without losing conciseness.

    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 the tool's simplicity (2 string parameters, output schema present), the description is incomplete. It fails to specify parameter formats or provide usage examples, leaving significant gaps for the agent to resolve.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    With 0% schema description coverage, the description should explain the parameters. However, it gives no information about 'page_id_or_url' (format, example) or 'new_title' (constraints, max length). This forces the agent to guess or rely on external context.

    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 explicitly states 'Rename a Notion page', which is a specific verb-resource pairing. This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'archive_page' or 'create_page'.

    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 mention that other tools like 'update_block' might also modify page titles, leading to potential confusion.

    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 carries full burden but only states 'Delete', implying mutation without disclosing permanence, effects on child blocks, permission requirements, or error states.

    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 a single clear sentence with no wasted words, but its brevity omits important context that could be added in a second sentence without losing conciseness.

    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?

    Despite having an output schema, the description provides no additional context about side effects, relationships with sibling tools, or safe usage patterns for a destructive action.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    The description does not explain the single parameter 'block_id_or_url' (e.g., format, acceptable values, how to obtain it). At 0% schema coverage, this omission severely hinders correct invocation.

    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 'Delete a single block from a page' clearly states the action (delete), the resource (block), and the scope (from a page), making it distinct from sibling tools like update_block or append_to_page.

    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 such as archive_page or update_block. There is no mention of prerequisites, contexts, or situations where this tool is preferred.

    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 are present, so the description is the sole source. It does not disclose behavior such as sorting order, how 'recent' is defined, pagination, or authentication requirements.

    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 very concise at 4 words, but it lacks informative content. While not verbose, it could be more helpful without significant length increase.

    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?

    With an output schema (presumably defining return values) and one parameter, the description is minimal. It misses details like whether results are ordered by last edit time or how 'recent' is bounded, making it borderline adequate.

    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 description coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain the 'limit' parameter beyond what the schema provides (a default integer). The description fails to add semantic clarity.

    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 states the verb 'Get' and resource 'recently edited pages', which is clear. However, it does not differentiate from siblings like 'get_page' or 'search_notion', but 'recently edited' adds specificity.

    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 usage guidelines are provided. There is no indication of when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_page' or 'search_notion'.

    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 provided, the description should disclose behavioral traits. It only mentions date format and auto-detection, but omits side effects, idempotency, authentication needs, or what happens on duplicate titles.

    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 very concise with two sentences, front-loading the core action. However, it could include a bit more detail without becoming verbose, such as a note about optional parameters.

    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 5 parameters, no annotations, and no schema descriptions, the description is incomplete. It does not mention the output schema, explain return values, or provide context for optional fields beyond date format.

    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 description coverage is 0%, yet the description only clarifies the date format for due_date. It adds no meaning for title, priority, status, or tags beyond their names and types in the 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 the action ('Quick-add a task') and the target resource ('Tasks database'), with specific context ('auto-detected'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like add_comment or add_database_row by focusing on tasks.

    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. There is no mention of when not to use it, prerequisites, or comparisons with siblings like complete_task or update_database_row.

    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 are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions 'append' and 'markdown' but omits details like append position, error handling, permissions, or side effects. For a mutation tool, this is insufficient.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single, short sentence, which is concise but under-specified given the tool's complexity and lack of annotations.

    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?

    Despite having an output schema, the description does not cover behavioral context or parameter semantics adequately. A mutation tool with no annotations requires more detail to be complete.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description should clarify parameter meaning beyond property names. It does not explain that page_id_or_url is a Notion page identifier or content format restrictions.

    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 uses a specific verb-resource pair 'append markdown content' and 'existing page', clearly distinguishing it from create_page or add_comment. It is not a tautology of the name.

    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 adding content to an existing page but provides no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, nor mentions alternatives despite sibling tools like update_block.

    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, so the description must convey all behavioral traits. It only says 'get all children' without disclosing pagination, response format, or whether the result is flat or nested.

    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?

    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?

    While an output schema exists, the description fails to mention important context like recursion depth, ordering, or limitations. A retrieval tool needs more detail to be fully useful.

    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 has 0% description coverage. The sole parameter 'block_id_or_url' is not described beyond its name, leaving ambiguity about accepted formats or constraints.

    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 ('Get') and the resource ('all children blocks of a block (page or container)'), distinguishing it from sibling tools like delete_block or update_block.

    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 get_page or update_block. The description does not mention prerequisites or context.

    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 are provided, so the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It only states the action (update) without explaining side effects, idempotency, or requirements (e.g., permissions, block type constraints). This is insufficient.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence with no wasted words, but this brevity sacrifices valuable guidance. It is not structured to highlight key aspects like usage or parameters.

    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 two required parameters, zero annotations, and an output schema (not shown), the description fails to provide sufficient context for safe and effective use. It omits error conditions, return value details, and typical usage patterns.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Schema description coverage is 0%, and the tool description does not elaborate on the parameters. It does not explain what 'block_id_or_url' expects (ID format or full URL) or the format/constraints of 'new_content' (plain text, markdown, max length).

    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 'update', the resource 'block', and the specific attribute 'text content'. It also adds context '(for edits)', differentiating it from siblings like 'append_to_page' or 'delete_block'.

    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 editing block content, but does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_block_children' or 'append_to_page'. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned.

    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?

    Without annotations, the description carries the full burden of transparency. It states the core function (reversing archiving) but fails to disclose details like required permissions, effects on page children, or whether the operation is reversible.

    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 extremely concise, consisting of a single front-loaded sentence with no extraneous words. Every word is meaningful.

    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?

    Despite having an output schema, the description lacks behavioral details and parameter guidance. For a simple tool with one parameter, it misses essential context about requirements and outcomes.

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Discloses auto-finding behavior, but no details on failure modes (e.g., no page found) or conflict resolution (multiple matches). No annotations to supplement.

    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, no unnecessary words, front-loaded with purpose. Every sentence is essential.

    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?

    Covers main behavior and parameter usage. Lacks details on output or error states, but with output schema present and low complexity, it's sufficiently 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?

    Explains the journal_keyword parameter via auto-find behavior, adding meaning beyond the schema. Schema coverage is 0%, so description compensates adequately.

    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 'Add a timestamped entry to today's journal' with specific verb and resource. Auto-find behavior distinguishes it from sibling tools like add_comment or append_to_page.

    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 vs. alternatives like quick_note or append_to_page. Implies journal use but doesn't differentiate.

    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?

    No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses the filter (due today or overdue) but omits other behavioral traits like read-only nature or authorization needs.

    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, and front-loaded with key information. Every word earns its place.

    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 presence of an output schema and zero parameters, the description is adequate. It could mention that it returns only tasks due today or overdue (already done). Slight lack of context about scope (e.g., all tasks in system or current user).

    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?

    No parameters, so schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter info, but baseline for zero params is 4. It does not need to add more.

    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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('all tasks due today or overdue'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'add_task' and 'complete_task'.

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

    Usage Guidelines2/5

    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 (e.g., for daily review vs. marking tasks complete). The description only states what it does.

    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?

    No annotations provided, so the description must convey behavior. 'Get a dashboard view' implies a read-only, safe operation. It outlines the specific data fields, providing adequate transparency. However, it does not mention any potential limitations or 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?

    Two brief sentences that each add value without redundancy. The description is front-loaded and efficiently conveys the purpose and output details.

    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?

    Given zero parameters and an output schema, the description fully explains what the tool does and what data it returns. There is no missing context for an agent to understand when to invoke this tool.

    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?

    There are no parameters, so the description adds no parameter-level detail. According to the guidelines, zero parameters yields a baseline of 4.

    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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('dashboard view of your AI/ML learning progress'), and details the data shown (topics by status, category, priority, average progress). It clearly distinguishes this tool from siblings which are CRUD operations on pages, tasks, or databases.

    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?

    While the purpose is clear, there is no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any exclusions or prerequisites. Given zero parameters, the usage context is implied but not elaborated.

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