WPZylos MCP Server
OfficialServer Quality Checklist
Latest release: v1.0.0
- Disambiguation4/5
Most tools have distinct purposes as described, but the high number (83) and similar verb prefixes like 'scaffold_' and 'generate_' create potential for confusion. However, descriptions clearly differentiate each tool's target (e.g., plugin vs module vs block).
Naming Consistency4/5The naming follows a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case, but the variety of prefixes (gutenberg_, multisite_, woo_, i18n_) introduces subdomain-specific conventions that deviate from a single uniform style.
Tool Count3/583 tools is on the high side, but given the broad scope of the WPZylos framework—covering generation, inspection, validation, and scaffolding for many WordPress facets—the count is justified. Still, it may overwhelm agents.
Completeness5/5The tool surface is remarkably complete, covering generation, inspection, validation, and scaffolding for plugins, CRUD, REST, Gutenberg, WooCommerce, Multisite, i18n, security, and more. No obvious gaps in the framework's intended domain.
Average 3.5/5 across 83 of 83 tools scored. Lowest: 2.6/5.

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
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It only says 'Generate a Custom Taxonomy registration class' without disclosing side effects (e.g., file creation), required project state, or any behavioral traits. This is nearly absent.
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 single-sentence description is very short but not overly concise to the point of being unhelpful. However, it could be expanded with more context without losing conciseness.
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 the complexity of a code generation tool and no output schema, the description is inadequate. It doesn't explain the output format, integration with project structure, or how it fits with other scaffolding tools.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description adds no extra meaning or examples beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
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 it generates a custom taxonomy registration class, which distinguishes it from sibling tools like generate_posttype or generate_model. However, it could be more specific by mentioning the output is a PHP class or that it's WordPress-related.
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?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like scaffold_cpt_module or generate_posttype. It lacks context about prerequisites or typical use cases.
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. The description does not disclose side effects (file creation location, overwrite behavior, permissions needed). Minimal behavioral disclosure beyond 'generate'.
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?
Single sentence, no fluff. Concise but could benefit from slightly more detail without being verbose.
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?
Description gives context (background job for queued processing) but lacks output details, file naming, or prerequisites. Adequate but incomplete for a generate tool with no output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents parameters. The description adds no extra parameter meaning beyond the schema.
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 it generates a background Job class for queued processing, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings by focusing on 'Job class' but does not explicitly differentiate from other generate_* tools.
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 generate_model or generate_controller. Lacks prerequisites, context, or exclusions.
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 present, the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It states the tool 'generates' a listener class but does not explain side effects (e.g., file creation, namespace conventions), required permissions, or the resulting class structure. This lack of detail hinders the agent from understanding the tool's impact.
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 concise sentence that efficiently conveys the core purpose. However, it could include more detail without becoming overly verbose, as some behavioral context is missing.
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 that there is no output schema and the description lacks detail on the generated output, the description is incomplete. It does not explain the listener class methods, event handling pattern, or how the generated code integrates with the rest of the framework, leaving significant gaps for the agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema covers 100% of parameters with clear descriptions (rootNamespace, className, extraTokens). The description adds no additional semantic information beyond what is already in the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
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 generates a Listener class for handling dispatched events. The verb 'Generate' and resource 'Listener class' are specific, and the mention of 'dispatched events' distinguishes it from sibling tools like generate_controller or generate_command. However, it could be more precise about the nature of the listener (e.g., WordPress hooks vs. custom events).
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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as generate_event or other generation tools. The description does not mention prerequisites, contexts, or scenarios where this tool is appropriate, leaving the agent without decision-making support.
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 the full burden. It only states that a class is generated but does not disclose side effects (e.g., file creation, overwrite behavior, required project context).
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 concise sentence that conveys the essential purpose without any redundant information.
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 the lack of output schema and the presence of many sibling tools, the description is too minimal. It does not explain where the file is placed, which stub is used, or any behavioral details needed for correct usage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents parameters. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the property names and types.
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 generates a Middleware class implementing MiddlewareInterface for the HTTP pipeline. It uses a specific verb (Generate) and resource (Middleware class), but does not differentiate from other generate_X siblings.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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 generate_command or generate_controller. There is no mention of prerequisites or contextual cues.
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 disclose behavioral traits. It only states that it generates a migration class, but does not mention whether it writes to disk, overwrites existing files, requires permissions, or any side effects. This is insufficient for an agent to understand the full impact of invocation.
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 concise at two sentences, front-loaded with the primary purpose. Every sentence adds value without redundancy. It is well-structured for quick parsing by an AI agent.
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?
The tool generates a migration file, yet the description lacks details about file naming conventions, directory placement, and whether the migration affects the database schema immediately. The 4 parameters and no output schema mean the description should provide more context to compensate, but it does not. Incomplete for a code generation tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Input schema has 100% description coverage for all 4 parameters, so the schema already provides meaning. The description adds no additional context beyond restating that fields are specified with types. Given the high schema coverage, a score of 3 is appropriate as the description does not further enhance parameter understanding.
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 generates a database migration file with column definitions. It specifies the verb 'generate' and resource 'database migration file'. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like generate_model or generate_controller, which also generate code artifacts, but the specific resource type is distinctive enough.
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?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool instead of alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, when to choose different migration actions (create, add, modify, drop), or when not to use it. This omission limits the agent's ability to decide correctly.
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 carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states the tool generates a class but omits side effects (e.g., file creation), permission requirements, or error conditions.
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, concise sentence with no redundancy. However, it could be slightly expanded without sacrificing conciseness to improve completeness.
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?
For a code generation tool with 3 parameters (including a nested object) and no output schema, the description is too minimal. It does not convey what the generated file looks like, which template is used, or how extraTokens affect output.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema; it does not explain how parameters like rootNamespace or className relate to the generated Service class.
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 it generates a 'Service class for business logic', providing a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate this tool from other generate_* siblings like generate_controller or generate_model, which also generate classes.
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 is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as generate_controller or generate_model. The description lacks context on prerequisites or scenarios where a Service class is appropriate.
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 behavioral traits. It indicates a generate/write operation but does not mention side effects (e.g., creating files, overwriting), required permissions, or output behavior. The word 'Generate' implies mutation, but details are lacking.
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, concise sentence that is front-loaded with the core purpose. No unnecessary words or redundant information.
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?
Without an output schema or annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain what is generated (e.g., file location, class structure), what the return value is, or how nested parameters like 'extraTokens' affect the output. The tool's complexity (3 params, nested object) demands more context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions, so the description adds limited value beyond the schema. It mentions 'sections and fields' which are not reflected in the parameters (rootNamespace, className, extraTokens), leaving ambiguity about how those relate to the output.
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 it generates a 'Settings Page class with sections and fields,' specifying the resource (Settings Page class) and action (generate). However, it does not differentiate from the similar sibling tool 'scaffold_settings_page,' which may have overlapping functionality.
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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'scaffold_settings_page' or other generate/scaffold tools. The context of the sibling tools suggests a code generation suite, but the description omits any usage context, exclusions, 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?
With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It lists outputs (PHP handler, JS caller, ServiceProvider) but does not state whether files are overwritten, whether any project structure is assumed, or if there are side effects. The behavioral aspects beyond the output are missing.
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 concise sentence that lists key components. It is front-loaded and efficient, though slightly more structure (e.g., listing steps or bullet points) could improve readability without adding bulk.
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 schema coverage (100%), no output schema, and no annotations, the description adequately states what is generated but lacks context about behavioral assumptions (e.g., file locations, overwrite behavior, project requirements). It is minimally complete but has gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for all 5 parameters. The description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema already documents parameters.
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 verb 'Generate' and the resource 'WordPress AJAX handler' and lists specific components (nonce verification, capability check, PHP handler class, JS caller, ServiceProvider registration). It distinguishes from siblings that generate other WordPress components but does not explicitly differentiate from other scaffold tools like scaffold_cpt_module.
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?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites (e.g., existing plugin structure), context, or when not to use it. There is no referral to sibling tools.
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 must disclose behavior. It only states the action without explaining side effects (e.g., does it output to stdout or modify files?), required permissions, or what the generated code looks like.
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?
Single, direct sentence with no extraneous words. Efficient and well-structured.
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?
For a 3-parameter tool with no output schema, the description is minimal. While schema coverage helps, users would benefit from knowing the output format or naming conventions. It's adequate but not thorough.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what's in the schema, maintaining the baseline of 3.
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?
Description clearly states it generates a CLI Command class for WP-CLI or Symfony Console, using a specific verb and resource. However, among many sibling generate_* tools, it could better differentiate itself, but the targeting of two frameworks adds clarity.
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 vs alternatives like 'scaffold_wp_cli_command' or other generate tools. Missing usage context and exclusions.
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, and the description fails to disclose behavioral traits such as side effects (e.g., file creation/overwrite), required permissions, or output format. For a generation tool, this is a significant gap.
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, concise sentence with no repetition. However, it could be structured to include more key details without becoming verbose.
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 the tool's complexity (3 parameters, nested objects) and no output schema, the description is insufficient. It does not explain return values, generated class structure, or integration with other tools.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond restating the purpose; baseline 3 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 'Generate' and the resource 'REST/HTTP Controller class' with its purpose 'for handling requests'. It distinctly identifies the tool's function among many sibling generate_* tools.
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?

Schema covers 100% with descriptions; description adds context that textDomain is the expected domain, but no additional meaning beyond schema.
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?
Description clearly states the tool scans for specific internationalization issues with a list of example checks like untranslated strings and missing text domains, distinct from sibling validation tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Description implies usage for i18n validation of a plugin but provides no explicit guidance on when to use versus alternatives 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?
With no annotations provided, the description bears full responsibility. It implies a read-only operation ('analyze', 'extract') and suggests safety by recommending use before modifications. But it fails to disclose error handling, required permissions, or potential side effects on file system state.
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 extremely concise, consisting of two sentences that front-load the core purpose and add a usage hint. Every sentence contributes meaning without redundancy.
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?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers the main functionality and use case. However, it omits details about the output format or behavior for edge cases (e.g., file not found), which would be helpful for an agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with the single parameter well-described. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema, merely reiterating that the tool analyzes PHP files. It does not elaborate on the parameter's format or constraints further.
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 it analyzes PHP files and extracts specific components (classes, methods, properties, etc.), providing a clear verb and resource. While it distinguishes from siblings implicitly through its specific focus on PHP file inspection, it does not explicitly contrast with other inspect_* tools like inspect_conventions.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description includes 'Use before modifying any file' which gives clear context for when to use the tool. However, it lacks explicit guidance on when not to use it or alternatives among sibling tools.
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 convey behavioral traits. It vaguely mentions 'capability checks' but does not disclose what files are generated, whether overwriting occurs, prerequisites, or side effects. This is insufficient for a scaffolding tool.
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 concise (21 words) and front-loads the purpose. It includes a helpful second sentence for context. No wasted words, though could be slightly more structured.
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 the complexity of a scaffolding tool with 5 required parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It omits output details, prerequisites, and differentiation from similar tools like 'scaffold_settings_page'.

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 describes the generated checker's behavior ('checks a remote JSON endpoint...'), not the tool's own behavior (e.g., file creation, side effects). Missing details on what the tool modifies or creates.
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?
One concise sentence, front-loaded with action verb, and zero redundant information. Every word earns its place.
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?
No output schema exists, and the description does not specify what files or code are generated. For a scaffold tool, this missing detail reduces completeness. However, the parameter schema is fully covered.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with clear descriptions for each parameter. The tool description adds context about the overall purpose but does not elaborate on parameter specifics beyond schema. Baseline of 3 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 'Generate a self-hosted plugin update checker,' specifying both the verb and the resource. Among siblings like scaffold_admin_notice or scaffold_cpt_module, this is distinct.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool or when to avoid it. Alternatives are not mentioned, and prerequisites like WordPress setup are implied but not stated.
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 mentions what violations are checked but omits whether it is read-only, what happens on errors, if files are modified, or the format of the output. This is insufficient for an AI agent to predict 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.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences front-load the purpose and specific checks, then cite the security requirements document. Every sentence is informative and there is no redundancy.
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?
For a simple single-parameter tool with no output schema, the description adequately states what is scanned and why. However, it lacks details on output format, recursion behavior, or performance implications, which could affect an agent's decision to invoke it.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema already describes 'path' as 'Absolute path to the plugin root' with 100% coverage. The tool description reinforces that it scans plugin PHP files, but adds no new semantic details about the parameter beyond what the schema provides.
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 uses the specific verb 'Scan' and clearly lists the exact security violations checked (nonce, capability, unescaped output, raw SQL). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'validate_plugin_structure' by focusing on security compliance.
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?

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description should disclose behavioral traits. It does not mention side effects (e.g., file creation, overwriting), permissions needed, or whether the operation is destructive. The term 'Generate' suggests file creation but is not explicit.
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 concise sentence that efficiently communicates the tool's output. It front-loads the key concept 'WordPress Cron job' and lists components, though it could be slightly more structured.
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 5 parameters (4 required) and no output schema, the description adequately covers what is generated but does not specify output structure, file locations, or post-generation steps. It is complete enough for a scaffolding tool but leaves some gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with clear parameter descriptions. The tool description adds marginal value by mentioning 'custom interval' and 'handler class', which loosely map to parameters, but does not provide additional semantic detail beyond the schema.

A slight improvement could be breaking into two sentences for readability, but it's already concise.
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's complexity (generates multiple artifacts) and lack of annotations or output schema, the description is moderately complete. It names the outputs but does not explain the return value (likely file paths or success message) or the scope of changes. It could be improved by mentioning what happens on execution (e.g., files are created in specific locations).
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 4 required parameters, and schema description coverage is 100%—each parameter is described in the schema. The description adds no extra meaning beyond what the schema provides. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate as the description does not enhance parameter understanding.
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 explicitly states the tool generates a custom database table with dbDelta() migration, a CRUD model class, activation hook, and uninstall cleanup.

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description must fully disclose behavior. It lists what is checked but does not state whether tool is read-only, if it modifies files, requires permissions, or how results are returned (e.g., success/failure, list of violations). For a validation tool, behavioral details are essential.
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?
Two concise sentences, front-loaded with purpose. Every word adds value; no fluff or repetition.
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 it is a validation tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description should explain what happens post-validation (e.g., returns errors, logs). It only lists checks but omits behavior on failure/success, making it incomplete for an agent to fully understand the tool's outcome.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% coverage with description for the single parameter 'path' ('Absolute path to the plugin root'). Description adds context ('plugin folder structure') but does not add significant meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

Implies usage when needing to validate plugin folder structure, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool vs alternatives like detect_framework_violations or validate_plugin_header. No guidance on prerequisites or exclusions.
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 states that admin tabs include fields and save logic, but does not disclose side effects (e.g., file generation), required permissions, reversibility, or output format. This leaves significant behavioral ambiguity for a scaffolding tool.
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 extraneous words. It efficiently communicates the core purpose and variants, earning its place.
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?
With 6 parameters and no output schema, the description should clarify what the tool returns (e.g., file paths, confirmation) and any side effects. It only says 'generate a tab', which is vague for a scaffolding operation. The brevity leaves the agent under-informed about the full scope of the tool's action.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% – all 6 parameters are described in the input schema. The description adds no additional meaning beyond grouping admin vs frontend location, which the schema already covers via the 'location' enum. Baseline of 3 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 tool generates a custom WooCommerce product data tab, specifying both admin (with fields and save logic) and frontend variants. This is a specific verb+resource combination that distinguishes it from the many other scaffolding sibling tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema, the description lacks any indication of return value or side effects. It adequately explains what the tool does but not what the agent receives after invocation. Adequate but incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
All 6 parameters are described in the schema (100% coverage). The description does not add additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 applies.
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 tool generates a WordPress block pattern registration, with an additional explanation of what block patterns are. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'gutenberg_scaffold_block' which scaffolds blocks, not patterns.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for block patterns but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'gutenberg_scaffold_block' or 'gutenberg_scaffold_block_style'. No when-not-to-use information is included.
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 states the action (register custom style variations) but does not disclose side effects (e.g., file generation, overwriting behavior), permissions, or idempotency. Minimal 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.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with front-loaded action and helpful parenthetical examples. Every word serves a purpose; no redundancy.
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?
Adequate for a simple scaffolding tool with well-described parameters. However, lacks detail on what the tool produces (e.g., generated files) and no output schema. Could benefit from mentioning side effects.

Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema already documents the two parameters with clear descriptions and enum for type. Schema coverage is 100%, so the description adds little value beyond the schema. The description mentions the return content but not parameter details.
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 'Search' and resource 'framework packages', specifies what it searches (classes or methods by name), and what it returns (package, FQCN, method signatures). This distinguishes it from siblings like 'search_in_project' which likely searches the project, not framework packages.
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?
The description does not provide any guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'list_all_methods' or 'search_in_project'. Given the many sibling tools, explicit usage context is missing.
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 description must cover behavioral traits. It states the tool analyzes and suggests, implying read-only, but does not disclose any side effects, authorization needs, or potential limitations.
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, well-structured sentence that efficiently lists the tool's capabilities without waste.
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?
Despite having no output schema, the description does not explain the return format or what 'suggest' yields (e.g., list of suggestions, inline changes). This leaves the agent guessing about the output.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% for the single parameter filePath, with a clear schema description. The tool description adds context about the operation but no additional meaning to the parameter itself.
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 tool analyzes a PHP file and suggests refactoring opportunities, listing specific types like extract methods and reduce complexity. This distinguishes it from sibling tools that focus on scaffolding or specific validation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies when to use (when refactoring is desired) but does not provide explicit guidance on when not to use or how it compares to sibling analysis tools like detect_framework_violations or inspect_file.
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?
Describes what fields are checked but does not disclose return format, error behavior, or side effects; with no annotations, the description provides only minimal 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.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two concise sentences, front-loaded with action, no wasted words.
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?
Lacks return value description or error handling details; with no output schema and no annotations, the description is insufficient for a validation tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers the only parameter fully; description adds 'absolute path' context but no further semantics beyond schema.
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?
Description clearly states it validates the WordPress plugin file header and lists specific checked fields, distinguishing it from sibling tools like validate_plugin_structure or validate_hook_usage.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit when/when-not guidance or alternatives; usage is implied by the tool name and description, but not differentiated from similar validation tools.
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 fully disclose behavior. It only states 'Generate a ... class' without detailing side effects (e.g., file creation, overwriting), authorization requirements, or output specifics. This is insufficient for a generation tool.
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 extremely concise: two sentences with no redundant words. It efficiently communicates the core functionality and usage context.
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?
The tool generates code but lacks details on output location, naming conventions, file structure, or return value. For a scaffolding tool without an output schema, this is a significant gap that hinders the agent from understanding the full impact.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema. The schema descriptions are adequate (e.g., 'scriptData' explained), but the description fails to provide additional context.
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 action ('Generate'), the resource ('WooCommerce Blocks IntegrationInterface class'), and distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'woo_scaffold_cart_block_extension' and 'woo_scaffold_checkout_block' by specifying 'without scaffolding the full checkout/cart block extension'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly says 'Use when you need the PHP integration layer without scaffolding the full checkout/cart block extension', providing clear context for when to use the tool. It implicitly indicates when not to use it, but lacks explicit mention of prerequisites or alternative tools beyond the two obvious siblings.
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 the full burden. It only declares that it 'generates' files but does not disclose whether it overwrites existing files, requires certain permissions, or has any other side effects typical of scaffolding tools. This lack of behavioral details is a significant gap.
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 two sentences, front-loaded with the primary verb and resource. Every phrase adds value: what is generated and its purpose. No unnecessary words, and the structure clearly separates generation from purpose.
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?
With no output schema and 5 parameters, the description lacks context about how parameters influence the generated result. It lists generated files but doesn't explain naming conventions, file locations, or dependency on extensionName/slug. For a scaffold tool, this is insufficient for an agent to fully understand the outcome.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents each parameter's meaning. The description adds no extra value beyond what the schema already provides (e.g., it doesn't clarify how parameters affect the generated output). Baseline of 3 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 'Generate' and the resource 'WooCommerce Checkout Block extension', listing specific outputs (React component, IntegrationInterface PHP class, block.json) and the purpose (extending block-based checkout). It implicitly distinguishes from siblings like woo_scaffold_cart_block_extension by focusing on checkout block specifically.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states when to use the tool: for extending the block-based checkout with custom fields or UI. However, it does not mention when not to use it or provide explicit alternatives among the many scaffold siblings, though the specialization is clear from the name.
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 are provided, so the description carries full burden. It states the tool 'reads the stub, applies token replacements, and returns the generated code,' which implies a non-destructive read operation. However, it does not disclose whether the tool has side effects (e.g., creating files), requires authentication, or has rate limits. More detail on safety would be beneficial.
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 four sentences, starting with the core action and then providing scope. It is well-structured but could be slightly more concise by omitting the full list of stub types, though that list adds helpful context.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 4 parameters (including a nested object) and no output schema, the description covers its main behavior and the full range of stub types. It mentions the output is 'returned' but does not detail the format (e.g., string, object) or error conditions. Nevertheless, it is fairly complete for a code generation tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the input schema already documents all parameters. The description adds context about 'additional token replacements beyond NAMESPACE and CLASS_NAME' which mirrors the extraTokens parameter description. It does not add significant new semantics beyond what the schema provides.
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 it generates a PHP class from a framework stub template, lists the 42 stub types it covers, and distinguishes it from sibling tools that are more specific (e.g., generate_controller, generate_model). It specifies the verb 'generate' and the resources 'PHP class' and 'framework stub template'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus the many specific sibling generators like generate_controller or generate_posttype. It implies broad coverage ('Covers all 42 stub types') but offers no guidance on when a specific generator would be 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 provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does not mention where the file is written, whether it overwrites existing files, authentication requirements, or any side effects. For a code generation tool, these are important behavioral details.
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 sentence of 12 words that immediately conveys the tool's purpose. There is no filler or redundancy, so every word earns its place.
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?
With no output schema, the description should provide adequate information about what the tool produces. It mentions the class features (fillable, casts, table name), but lacks details like file naming, namespace handling, or output structure. Given the tool has only 3 parameters and is relatively simple, the description is minimally adequate.
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?
Schema coverage is 100% with each parameter having a description. The description adds value by indicating the generated output includes fillable, casts, and table name, which provides context beyond the schema. extraTokens is described in schema as 'Additional token replacements', and the description hints at its usage indirectly.
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 it generates an Eloquent-style Model class with specific features (fillable, casts, table name). The verb 'Generate' and resource 'Model class' are specific, and it distinguishes itself from sibling tools like generate_controller or generate_command.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, when not to use it, or suggest other tools. Given the sibling list includes many generation tools, some guidance would be helpful.
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 are provided, so the description carries full burden. It lists what is checked but does not state whether the tool is read-only, what permissions are needed, or what the return behavior is (e.g., success/failure indications). For a validation tool, this is adequate but could be improved.
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 sentence that is clear, front-loaded with the verb and resource, and every part adds value. It is concise with no unnecessary words.
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 one parameter and no output schema, the description covers the core functionality. However, it does not explain what the tool returns (e.g., pass/fail, errors, warnings), which is a gap for completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter 'path' is fully described in the schema with a clear description. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, which already provides 100% coverage. Thus baseline score of 3 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 'Validate' and the resource 'a Gutenberg block', and enumerates specific validation checks (block.json schema, required files, attribute definitions, text domain). This is highly specific and distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'validate_plugin_structure' or 'validate_rest_schema'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites or exclusion criteria. Its purpose is implied from the name and sibling context, but no direct usage instructions are given.
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 are provided, so the description carries full burden. It gives examples of functions detected (add_action, etc.) and hints at the framework vs raw comparison, but doesn't state whether the tool is read-only, what it returns, or any side effects. With no annotations, this is adequate but not exceptional.
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 two sentences with no filler. It is front-loaded with the primary purpose and immediately provides concrete examples. Every sentence is valuable.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple one-parameter tool with no output schema, the description adequately explains the purpose and gives examples of what it finds. It could mention the output format or scope, but remains complete enough for an agent to select this tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter 'path' has schema description 'Absolute path to the plugin root' and schema coverage is 100%. The tool description does not add any extra semantic meaning beyond that, so baseline 3 applies.
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 tool detects raw WordPress functions like add_action, register_post_type, and wp_enqueue_script that should use framework abstractions. It specifies the verb 'detect' and resource 'code that uses raw WordPress functions', and distinguishes from sibling tools (many are generators).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like detect_incomplete_implementations or inspection tools. Usage is implied from the description (use to find raw WordPress function calls), but no when-not-to-use or context is provided.
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 exist, so the description carries the burden. It clearly states what it scans for (comments, empty methods, placeholders), but does not disclose the output format, recursion behavior, or any performance implications. Overall, it's fairly transparent for a detection tool.
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?
Single sentence, front-loaded with key actions and targets. No wasted words; every part of the sentence is informative.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple detection tool with one well-described parameter, the description is largely complete. It could be improved by noting the output format (e.g., list of issues with locations) since no output schema is provided. Still, it covers the main functionality.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the schema already describes the single parameter 'path' as 'Absolute path to the plugin root'. The description adds no extra meaning beyond this, so baseline 3 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 specifies exactly what the tool detects: TODO, FIXME, HACK, XXX comments, empty method bodies, and placeholder returns. It clearly distinguishes itself from sibling tools which focus on generation, scaffolding, or overall project inspection.
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 like 'inspect_file' or 'search_in_project'. The description implies it is for finding incomplete implementations in plugin code, but lacks when-not-to-use or comparison with similar tools.
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?
With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden. It discloses the tool analyzes dependencies and shows specific types of references, but does not mention whether it is read-only, response format, or any side effects. The description is adequate but could be more transparent about behavior beyond what is stated.
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, concise sentence that effectively communicates the tool's purpose and specific capabilities without unnecessary words or structure issues.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's single parameter and specialized nature, the description is mostly complete. It explains what the tool does and what it shows, though it could mention the expected output format (e.g., list, graph) for fuller completeness. No output schema exists, but the description still provides sufficient context for the agent to understand the tool's purpose.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage for the single parameter 'path' is 100%, so the description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides. A score of 3 is appropriate as the baseline for high coverage.
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 tool analyzes class-to-class dependencies within a plugin, detailing specific aspects like use/import statements, constructor injection, and method type hints. This distinguishes it from sibling 'inspect_*' tools that focus on other aspects such as conventions, hooks, or project summary.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not explicitly provide guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like inspect_conventions or inspect_file. It implicitly suggests use for dependency analysis, but lacks explicit context, exclusions, or comparison to other tools.
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 description bears full burden. It describes what the tool returns and that it maps all hooks, but does not disclose potential side effects, performance implications, or permissions needed. Adequate but not comprehensive.
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?
Three sentences, front-loaded with main action ('Map ALL hooks'), followed by return details and purpose. No redundant information, every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, description adequately explains input (path) and output fields (callback, file, line). Could benefit from an example but is sufficiently complete for most use cases.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a single 'path' parameter described in schema. Description does not add meaning beyond the schema's 'Absolute path to the plugin root'. Baseline of 3 applies as schema already documents parameter.

Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states verb 'Map' and resource 'ALL hooks registered by a WPZylos plugin', and specifies return fields (callback, file, line). It distinguishes itself from siblings like 'validate_hook_usage' by focusing on complete mapping for debugging.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
States 'Critical for debugging hook issues' which implies usage context, but no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use compared to alternatives like 'validate_hook_usage' or 'inspect_conventions'. Guidance is implied but not explicit.
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 does not disclose whether the tool is read-only, requires network access, or has side effects. An explicit statement of non-destructive behavior is missing.
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?
Single sentence with no wasted words. Front-loaded with the input condition and action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple recommendation tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description adequately explains purpose. However, it does not describe the output format (e.g., list of package names or details), which may leave ambiguity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers 100% of parameters. Tool description mirrors the parameter description ('Given a task description') but adds little additional meaning beyond what the input schema already provides.
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?
Description clearly states verb ('recommend'), resource ('WPZylos framework package(s)'), and purpose ('prevents reinventing logic'). Distinct from siblings like 'list_packages' (lists packages) and 'inspect_package' (inspects specific package).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Description implies use when you have a task and want to avoid building from scratch ('prevents reinventing logic'). Provides clear context but does not explicitly exclude alternatives or specify 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.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must carry full behavioral disclosure. It notes nonce and capability checks, adding behavioral context. However, it fails to mention that the tool generates code files, potential side effects (e.g., file creation), or any required permissions. For a generation tool, this is adequate but not comprehensive.
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, well-structured sentence that conveys the tool's purpose and key deliverables with no wasted words. It uses a colon to list components efficiently.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (no output schema, flat parameters), the description covers the core purpose and components. It could explicitly state that it generates PHP code for WordPress, but the term 'generate' and meta box context are sufficient. The mention of nonce/capability checks adds completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so all 7 parameters are already explained in the input schema. The description does not add additional meaning or examples beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema does the heavy lifting.
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?

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of disclosure. It states the validation rules and detection of raw hooks, but does not specify if the tool is read-only, what errors or output format to expect, or any prerequisites beyond a path.
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?
Two sentences that are front-loaded with the tool's purpose. No unnecessary words; every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description adequately covers the tool's function and rules. However, it could be more complete by describing what the validation returns (e.g., list of violations) or how errors are reported.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'path' is fully described in the schema as 'Absolute path to the plugin root'. The description adds no additional semantics beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline 3 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 tool validates correct hook usage with specific rules for WordPress core hooks vs custom hooks. It distinguishes itself from siblings like inspect_hook_map by focusing on naming conventions and detecting raw add_action/add_filter calls that should use HookManager.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not explicitly provide when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to siblings such as inspect_hook_map. While the purpose is clear, an agent might need more context to choose between this and other hook-related tools.
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?
With no annotations, the description effectively discloses behavioral traits: it generates a notice with user dismissal, persistence via user meta, conditional display, and proper escaping/styling. However, it does not mention potential side effects like file creation or overwriting.
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?
A single sentence of 15 words, front-loaded with the action 'Generate a WordPress admin notice'. Every part of the sentence adds value, listing key features succinctly.
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?
For a tool with 8 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description covers the purpose and key features but lacks details on return values, side effects (e.g., file creation), prerequisites, or usage examples. It is adequate but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for all 8 parameters, so the burder on the description is low. The description provides an overview but does not add meaning beyond the schema's individual parameter descriptions.
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 tool generates a WordPress admin notice, using a specific verb and resource. It lists key features (dismissible, persistent, conditional, escaping, styling), distinguishing it from sibling tools that scaffold other WordPress elements.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for generating admin notices but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like scaffold_meta_box or scaffold_settings_page. No when-not or alternative guidance is provided.
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?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It reveals the tool performs checks (route registration, callbacks, schema), but does not disclose if it modifies anything, requires network access, or returns status messages. The read-only nature is implied but not explicit.
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, well-structured sentence that lists the key validation aspects. It is concise without unnecessary words, making it easy to parse. Every part contributes to understanding the tool's purpose.
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 lacks an output schema, the description should explain the return value or result format. It does not. The tool is simple with two parameters, but the description is adequate for basic understanding. Missing details on success/failure indicators or error handling reduce completeness.
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?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds context: 'namespace' is clarified as 'expected REST namespace (e.g., myplugin/v1)', which aids understanding beyond the schema. The path parameter is straightforward, but the description ties namespace to a specific use.
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 explicitly states the tool's purpose: validating WordPress REST API endpoints in a plugin. It lists specific checks (route registration, permission callbacks, etc.), making the function clear. It distinguishes from sibling validation tools (e.g., validate_hook_usage) by targeting REST API schema.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage when validating a plugin's REST API, but it lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., validate_security_compliance). No when-to-use or when-not-to-use conditions are given, leaving the agent to infer context.
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 are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It implies a read-only, non-destructive operation but does not mention error handling or return format. For a simple tool, this is adequate but not exemplary.
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 two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, and contains no fluff. Every word earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (single parameter, no output schema), the description is sufficient. It explains what and why, though it could optionally mention the return type for completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional semantics beyond the schema; the schema already describes the parameter with examples.
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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('raw content of a specific stub template'), clearly distinguishing it from siblings like list_stubs and generate_from_stub. It directly states the tool's function.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description includes the use case 'before generating code', providing clear context. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use or list alternatives, which would improve guidance further.
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?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that the block uses a PHP render callback (server-side rendering) but does not mention side effects (file generation, project modification), error behavior, or prerequisites beyond the input schema.
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?
Two sentences, front-loaded with the main purpose. Every phrase is meaningful and directly supports understanding. No extraneous information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 6 parameters (4 required) and no output schema, the description provides adequate context: explains the dynamic nature and typical use case. However, it does not describe what the tool produces (file structure, placement) or any side effects, which would be valuable for a scaffolding tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the description adds minimal value beyond the schema's own parameter descriptions. The description does not explain parameter usage or format details beyond what is already in the schema, e.g., 'attributes' remains as 'name:type' pairs without examples.
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 tool generates a dynamic Gutenberg block using a PHP render callback, distinguishing it from static blocks. It uses specific verbs ('Generate') and resources ('dynamic Gutenberg block') and contrasts with save.js, making the purpose unmistakable.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear usage context by noting the tool is 'ideal for blocks that show live data (recent posts, queries, etc.)'. It implies when to use it but does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives like gutenberg_scaffold_block for static blocks.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers the sole parameter fully (100% coverage); description adds no new info about parameters.
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?
Clearly states the action (list), resource (packages), and what is returned (descriptions, layers, class counts). Distinguishes from siblings like inspect_package.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides usage context ('understand what the framework offers') but does not explicitly mention when to avoid or alternatives.
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 are provided, so the description carries full burden. It notes case-insensitivity, default extensions and max results, and return format. However, it does not explicitly state it is non-destructive or discuss performance/limitations.
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?
Two sentences: first defines purpose, second describes output. No unnecessary words. Front-loaded with key action and resource.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description adequately explains return structure (matching lines with file, line number, context). Lacks info on error cases or permissions, but sufficient for a search tool.
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?
Schema covers 100% of parameters. The description adds value by specifying case-insensitivity, default extensions ('php'), and default max results (50), which are not in the schema descriptions.
