agentvet-mcp
@mukundakatta/agentvet 的 MCP 服务器。 让 Claude Desktop、Cursor、Cline、Windsurf、Zed 或任何其他 MCP 客户端能够在执行前验证 LLM 生成的工具调用参数,并在出现问题时生成对 LLM 友好的重试消息。
npx -y @mukundakatta/agentvet-mcp包含三个工具:
validate_tool_args— 根据小型形状规范检查参数;返回{ valid, error?, retry_hint? },其中retry_hint是可直接发送给 LLM 的反馈消息。lint_tool_definition— 对工具定义进行健全性检查,以发现可能影响 LLM 工具使用准确性的常见错误。generate_retry_message— 给定验证错误,使用 agentvet 的ToolArgError.toLLMFeedback()格式构建规范的面向 LLM 的重试消息。

工具示例
validate_tool_args:
{
"tool_name": "send_email",
"args": { "to": "a@b.com" },
"shape": { "to": "string", "subject": "string", "body": "string" }
}返回:
{
"valid": false,
"error": "missing required field: subject",
"retry_hint": "send_email rejected your args: missing required field: subject. Please call again with the corrected arguments."
}lint_tool_definition:
{
"tool": {
"name": "BadName",
"inputSchema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "x": { "type": "string" } } }
}
}返回关于非 snake_case 名称、缺少描述、缺少字段描述以及没有必填字段的警告。
generate_retry_message:
{
"tool_name": "send_email",
"validation_error": "missing required field: subject",
"attempted_args": { "to": "a@b.com" }
}返回运行时调用者看到的规范重试反馈字符串——这样您可以在实时代理循环之外准备重试文本。
为什么需要单独的 MCP 服务器
@mukundakatta/agentvet 是一个零依赖的 JavaScript 库。此 MCP 服务器使任何支持 MCP 的 AI 助手都能访问其验证原语。这对于快速审计工具注册表,或者在不离开聊天界面的情况下询问助手“这个参数对象对于我的 send_email 工具是否有效?”非常有用。
若要在代理循环中进行运行时参数验证,请直接在您的 Node 进程中使用 @mukundakatta/agentvet(它会包装您的工具函数并同步抛出 ToolArgError)。

Available Tools
3 toolsgenerate_retry_messageA
Given a tool name, validation error, and attempted args, build the canonical LLM-facing retry feedback message. Uses agentvet's ToolArgError.toLLMFeedback() formatting so the wording matches what runtime callers see.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| tool_name | Yes | ||
| validation_error | Yes | ||
| attempted_args | Yes |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It describes inputs and output but does not disclose behavioral traits like idempotency, side effects, or read-only nature. The tool appears to be a pure function, but this is not explicitly stated. Minimal transparency beyond functional description.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences that are concise and front-loaded. Every sentence provides essential information without redundancy. The structure is clear and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple string generation tool with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description covers inputs and the output's purpose. However, it does not describe the output format or provide examples, which would be helpful for an agent. Given the tool's simplicity and lack of annotations, the description could be more complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0% (no parameter descriptions in schema). The description names the three parameters (tool_name, validation_error, attempted_args) and indicates their roles, but does not elaborate on expected formats, constraints, or examples. It adds value over the raw schema but does not fully compensate for the lack of schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly specifies the tool's purpose: building a canonical LLM-facing retry feedback message given tool_name, validation_error, and attempted_args. It includes the formatting method (agentvet's ToolArgError.toLLMFeedback()), and distinguishes from siblings (lint_tool_definition, validate_tool_args) by its unique output.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies when to use this tool—when generating a retry message after a validation error. It notes that the wording matches runtime callers, but does not explicitly state when not to use it or compare to alternatives. However, the siblings are sufficiently different, so no confusion.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
lint_tool_definitionA
Sanity-check a tool definition for common mistakes that hurt LLM tool-use accuracy: missing description, vague description, no required fields, schema fields without descriptions, non-snake_case names.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| tool | Yes | A tool definition: { name, description, inputSchema }. |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It describes the analysis but does not explicitly state it is non-destructive or disclose output format. The behavior is implied but not fully transparent.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, well-structured sentence with no unnecessary words. It efficiently communicates the tool's purpose and checks.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema is provided, and the description does not explain the return value (e.g., a list of issues). For a linting tool, this is a gap that reduces completeness for an AI agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the parameter 'tool' has a description explaining its structure. The description adds context about what to include, aiding correct invocation.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly specifies the verb 'Sanity-check' and the resource 'tool definition', listing specific checks. It distinguishes from sibling tools (generate_retry_message, validate_tool_args) by its focus on definition quality.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for checking tool definitions, but lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. However, the context of sibling tools helps differentiate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
validate_tool_argsA
Validate a tool-call args object against a small shape spec. Returns { valid, error?, retry_hint? } where retry_hint is a ready-to-send LLM feedback message describing exactly what was wrong.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| tool_name | Yes | Name of the tool being called (surfaces in retry_hint). | |
| args | Yes | The args object the LLM wants to pass. | |
| shape | Yes | Shape spec mapping field name to type. Types: "string", "number", "boolean", "array", "object". Suffix with "?" for optional. Example: { "name": "string", "age": "number", "tags": "array", "notes": "string?" } |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Despite no annotations, the description transparently states the return structure ({valid, error?, retry_hint?}) and explains that retry_hint is a ready-to-send LLM feedback message. This covers the behavior well, though it omits details like idempotency 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
A single sentence with a clear structure: first states the action, then lists the return fields. It is concise but could be improved by front-loading the most critical information (e.g., validation outcome).
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers the basic function and return values, but lacks usage context like when to validate or how the shape spec works (already in schema). No output schema means description should be more detailed, but it adequately explains the return format.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with detailed descriptions for each parameter. The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond the schema (e.g., clarifying retry_hint's purpose), meeting the baseline for high coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb ('Validate') and resource ('tool-call args object against a small shape spec'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools (generate_retry_message, lint_tool_definition) which serve different purposes.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
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. The description implies usage for validating tool-call arguments but does not provide prerequisites or contrasting scenarios with siblings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

TDQS
Scored across 3 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation: generating retry messages, linting tool definitions, and validating tool args. There is no overlap in purpose.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (generate_retry_message, lint_tool_definition, validate_tool_args), making them predictable.
With 3 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of agent vetting and validation. Each tool earns its place without being too sparse or bloated.
The set covers core validation, linting, and feedback generation. A minor gap is the absence of a tool to suggest fixes or re-lint after changes, but the core workflow is complete.
