Implementation Reference

  • Handler for the 'check_installation' tool: calls checkUnslothInstallation() and returns success or error message based on installation status.
    case 'check_installation': {
      const isInstalled = await this.checkUnslothInstallation();
      
      if (!isInstalled) {
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: 'text',
              text: 'Unsloth is not installed. Please install it with: pip install unsloth',
            },
          ],
          isError: true,
        };
      }
    
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: 'text',
            text: 'Unsloth is properly installed.',
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  • src/index.ts:70-77 (registration)
    Registration of the 'check_installation' tool in the ListTools response, including name, description, and empty input schema.
    {
      name: 'check_installation',
      description: 'Check if Unsloth is properly installed',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {},
      },
    },
  • Helper function that checks Unsloth installation by attempting to import it via Python exec command.
    private async checkUnslothInstallation(): Promise<boolean> {
      try {
        await execPromise('python -c "import unsloth"');
        return true;
      } catch (error) {
        return false;
      }
    }
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It states what the tool does but doesn't describe what 'properly installed' means, what checks are performed, what output format to expect, or whether this has side effects. For a diagnostic tool with zero annotation coverage, this leaves significant behavioral questions unanswered.

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, efficient sentence that directly states the tool's purpose with zero wasted words. It's appropriately sized for a simple diagnostic tool and front-loads the essential information.

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 zero-parameter diagnostic tool with no output schema, the description states the basic purpose adequately. However, it doesn't explain what constitutes 'properly installed' or what format the result will take, leaving the agent uncertain about how to interpret the tool's output. Given the simplicity of the tool, this is minimally viable but has clear gaps.

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?

The tool has zero parameters with 100% schema description coverage, so the baseline is 4. The description appropriately doesn't discuss parameters since none exist, and the schema already fully documents this.

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's purpose: checking if Unsloth is properly installed. It uses a specific verb ('check') and identifies the target resource ('Unsloth installation'). However, it doesn't differentiate from siblings like 'list_supported_models' which might also involve installation status checks.

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. It doesn't mention prerequisites, timing considerations, or relationships to sibling tools like 'list_supported_models' or 'load_model' that might be used before or after installation checks.

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