wordpress_execute_sql

Execute read-only SQL queries like SELECT, SHOW, DESCRIBE, and EXPLAIN on your WordPress database.

Instructions

Execute SQL query (SELECT, SHOW, DESCRIBE, EXPLAIN only for safety)

Input Schema

queryYes
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 discloses the allowed query types for safety, but does not mention result format, authentication needs, rate limits, or any side effects. The read-only nature is implied but not stated.

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 concise sentence that front-loads the purpose and constraint. However, it is so brief that it omits important details, making it efficient but under-specified.

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?

With no output schema, no annotations, and a single parameter, the description is insufficient. It does not explain return format, error handling, or how results are delivered. For a SQL execution tool, this is a significant gap.

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?

The single 'query' parameter has no schema description (0% coverage). The description only says 'Execute SQL query' without adding format, length, or example. It does not compensate for the missing schema info.

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 executes SQL queries and specifies acceptable query types (SELECT, SHOW, DESCRIBE, EXPLAIN). This distinguishes it from other WordPress database tools like wordpress_list_tables or wordpress_get_table_structure.

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 safe read-only queries by listing allowed types, but does not explicitly provide when to use versus alternatives or when not to use it. No guidance on exclusions is given.

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