Server Quality Checklist

Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.

Latest release: v0.1.6
Disambiguation3/5
Significant overlap exists between convert_to_html and generate_html (both produce HTML, differing only in file I/O behavior) and between convert_to_md with harmonize=true and harmonize_markdown (identical functionality). These duplications force agents to carefully read descriptions to distinguish tools that could have been parameters or a single tool.
Naming Consistency4/5
The vast majority of tools follow a strict verb_noun convention (convert_to_*, extract_*, generate_*, harmonize_*, lint_*, repair_*). However, html_to_markdown breaks this pattern (should be convert_from_html or import_html), and analyze_document is slightly vague compared to the specific extract_* tools.
Tool Count2/5
With 33 tools, this significantly exceeds the 25+ threshold where count becomes overwhelming. The server converts Markdown to 20+ formats, but this could be consolidated into a single convert tool with a format parameter, reducing surface area and cognitive load for agents.
Completeness4/5
Excellent coverage of Markdown export formats (20+ targets), analysis (lint, statistics, structure extraction), and repair operations. Minor gap: only supports HTML as an input format (html_to_markdown), lacking import from Word, PDF, or other common formats for a fully bidirectional converter.
Average 4.3/5 across 33 of 33 tools scored. Lowest: 3.6/5.

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

Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
While annotations declare idempotent/non-destructive hints, the description adds valuable behavioral context by enumerating specific HTML elements that are preserved (tables, code blocks, inline formatting), helping agents predict conversion fidelity. It aligns with annotations (idempotent 'round-trip' concept).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Four sentences with clear information hierarchy: purpose → capability details → use cases. The 'round-trip import' phrase is slightly jargon-heavy but overall structure is efficient with minimal redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Adequately covers the conversion capability and supported syntax, but lacks explicit documentation of return value behavior (file path vs string) in the description text itself, relying entirely on the parameter schema. No contradictions with annotations detected.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Input schema has 100% description coverage, establishing a baseline of 3. The description focuses on functional capabilities rather than clarifying parameter semantics (e.g., html fragment vs document), which is acceptable given the comprehensive schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool converts 'HTML to Markdown' with specific supported elements (headings, tables, lists, etc.), providing concrete scope. However, it fails to distinguish from sibling 'convert_to_md', which likely performs a similar function.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides implicit usage guidance through concrete examples ('importing web content', 'converting HTML emails'), helping agents identify relevant contexts. However, it lacks explicit when-not-to-use guidance or comparison with the generic 'convert_to_md' alternative.
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?
Annotations declare idempotent/non-destructive, but description adds valuable behavioral specifics: headers become bold/underline, code blocks are preserved, and basic formatting is maintained. This disclosure of specific transformation logic is exactly the context annotations cannot provide. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Three sentences with zero waste: purpose statement, specific transformation detail, preservation guarantee. Every sentence earns its place. Well front-loaded with the core action in sentence one.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Appropriate for a format-conversion tool with 2 parameters and no output schema. Covers input expectations and transformation behavior. Missing only documentation of the return value duality (file vs. string) which is a significant behavioral gap given the output_path parameter exists.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, baseline is 3. Description implicitly reinforces the 'markdown' parameter by mentioning GFM features (tables, headers) but does not explicitly walk through parameters or add syntax guidance beyond the schema. Notably omits mention of the output_path parameter's dual-behavior (file write vs. string return).
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the verb (Convert), source (Markdown), and target format (Discord-compatible). The mention of 'headers to styled bold/underline' specifically signals Discord's limitations, distinguishing it from siblings like convert_to_html or convert_to_slack. Could be 5 if it explicitly contrasted with the many other conversion tools available.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides implicit usage guidance by specifying 'renders correctly in Discord messages,' which signals when to select this over other converters. However, lacks explicit when-not-to-use guidance or sibling comparisons despite having 20+ conversion alternatives. Does not clarify when to use output_path vs. receiving direct string output.
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?
Strong supplemental context: while annotations confirm read-only/idempotent safety, the description details the specific JSON structure returned (listing 13+ distinct metrics like heading counts, code block counts, reading time). This compensates for the missing output schema.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Optimal structure: Two sentences, front-loaded with action ('Analyze...'), followed by output specification. Zero redundancy—every word earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Complete for the tool's complexity: despite lacking an output schema, the description enumerates return values in detail. With rich annotations (4 boolean hints) and 100% parameter coverage, this adequately equips the agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% ('markdown' parameter fully described), so the description does not need to add parameter semantics. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema carries the semantic burden.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Excellent specificity: 'Analyze' (verb) + 'Markdown document' (resource) + 'return comprehensive statistics' (output). Clearly distinguishes from conversion siblings (convert_to_*) and extraction siblings (extract_*) by focusing on statistical analysis rather than format transformation or content isolation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Implied usage is clear (analysis vs conversion), but lacks explicit guidance on when to choose this over extraction tools like extract_code_blocks or extract_links, or generator tools like generate_toc which overlap conceptually with document analysis.
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?
Annotations declare idempotentHint=true and non-destructive behavior. Description adds value by specifying exact output format quirks ({info}, {note}, {code} macros) that pure schema doesn't cover. Does not address file I/O side effects (covered in schema) or error behaviors.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, zero waste. First_sentence establishes operation, second_sentence provides critical sibling differentiation and output format specifics. Every word earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Adequate for a conversion utility with simple I/O. Covers core functionality and format-specific features. Lacks error handling documentation or edge case notes (e.g., unsupported Markdown extensions), but acceptable given idempotentHint and full schema coverage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with detailed descriptions for both 'markdown' (GFM support details) and 'output_path' (file vs return behavior). Description provides no additional parameter syntax guidance, meeting baseline expectation when schema is comprehensive.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clear specific verb 'Convert' + resource 'Markdown/Confluence wiki markup'. Explicitly distinguishes from sibling 'convert_to_jira' by contrasting Confluence-specific panels vs JIRA syntax, preventing selection errors.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Implicitly guides selection by stating 'Similar to JIRA but includes Confluence-specific...' which signals the differentiation point. However, lacks explicit 'use when targeting Confluence vs JIRA' directive or exclusion criteria.
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?
Annotations declare idempotentHint=true, readOnlyHint=false, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable transformation context (specific syntax mappings) that annotations don't cover, but omits handling of edge cases like invalid Markdown or whether the conversion preserves YAML frontmatter. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two efficiently structured sentences with zero waste. The first sentence establishes purpose; the second provides concrete transformation examples that immediately clarify scope. Every word earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simple 2-parameter input schema with complete descriptions and available annotations, the description adequately covers the conversion logic without needing to document return values (handled in output_path schema description). Minor gap: doesn't mention error handling for malformed input.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, the baseline is 3. The description adds semantic value by specifying which Markdown features are handled (tables, headers, bold, code), implicitly documenting the 'markdown' parameter's expected content type beyond the schema's technical description. It doesn't detail the output_path behavior, but the schema covers that comprehensively.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Convert Markdown to MediaWiki markup' with specific verb and resource. The transformation examples (== syntax, triple quotes, <syntaxhighlight> tags, {| wikitable) specifically distinguish this from sibling conversion tools like convert_to_html or convert_to_latex by identifying the exact target format syntax.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage through the MediaWiki-specific syntax examples, making it clear this produces MediaWiki markup versus other formats. However, it lacks explicit guidance on when to choose this over the 20+ sibling conversion tools (e.g., no 'use this for MediaWiki wikis, use convert_to_html for web pages' comparison).
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?
Annotations indicate idempotent=true and destructive=false. The description adds valuable behavioral context beyond these flags by detailing specific syntax transformations (headers to *, bold to *text*, code blocks to #+BEGIN_SRC), helping the agent understand the conversion logic and output structure.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences efficiently convey the tool's purpose and specific transformation rules. Every clause serves a function—first establishing the conversion direction, second detailing syntax mappings—with no redundant or filler text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the 100% schema coverage and presence of annotations, the description provides sufficient context by explaining what gets converted and how. The return behavior is adequately covered in the output_path schema description, making this complete enough for tool selection.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, the structured documentation already comprehensively describes both parameters. The description does not add parameter-specific guidance (e.g., format expectations for the markdown string), warranting the baseline score for high-coverage schemas.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the specific action ('Convert') and resources ('Markdown to Emacs Org Mode format'), distinguishing it from 20+ sibling conversion tools by explicitly naming the target format and providing syntax-specific details.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
While the description clearly identifies the tool's purpose (converting to Org Mode), it lacks explicit guidance on when to select this specific converter versus siblings like convert_to_asciidoc or convert_to_rst. Usage is implied by the format name but not stated as 'use this when...'.
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?
Annotations declare idempotentHint=true and destructiveHint=false. Description adds platform compatibility context but does not disclose behavioral traits like 'creates parent directories automatically' (described in schema) or whether conversions are lossy.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, zero waste. First sentence establishes core function; second provides platform context. Every element earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Appropriate for a conversion utility with 2 parameters and high schema coverage. Output behavior is well-documented in schema (string vs file return). Platform mention adds necessary domain context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with detailed descriptions for both parameters. Description does not add parameter semantics beyond schema, so baseline 3 applies per scoring rules for high-coverage schemas.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Specific verb 'Convert' with clear source/target resources (Markdown to Textile). Distinguishes from siblings by naming the specific markup format (Textile vs HTML, AsciiDoc, etc. in the convert_to_* family).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides contextual guidance by listing specific platforms (Redmine, Basecamp, CMS) that consume Textile, implicitly signaling when to use this tool. Lacks explicit 'when not to use' or comparison with alternatives like convert_to_html.
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?
Adds valuable behavioral details not present in annotations: output format specifics ('Markdown-formatted TOC with indented links') and special handling logic ('Handles duplicate heading slugs'). Complements the readOnly/idempotent annotations by describing the transformation behavior without contradicting safety hints.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Four tightly constructed sentences: purpose declaration, output specification, behavioral note on duplicates, and parameter guidance. Front-loaded with essential information; no filler content. Excellent information density.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Compensates well for missing output schema by explicitly describing return format. Complete coverage of the two parameters with 100% schema coverage. Only gap is lack of explicit sibling differentiation given the server's large collection of document processing tools.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% description coverage setting baseline at 3. Description adds redundant but clarifying phrasing for max_depth ('deepest heading level'), reinforcing the schema's intent without adding substantial new semantic information about parameter usage or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description uses specific verb 'Generate' with clear resource 'Table of Contents' and source 'Markdown headings'. Effectively distinguishes from sibling convert/extract tools by specifying its unique purpose (TOC generation with links).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides clear context about what the tool produces (indented links TOC) and input requirements (Markdown headings), but lacks explicit guidance on when to choose this over similar siblings like extract_structure. Usage is implied but not explicitly contrasted with alternatives.
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?
Annotations establish idempotency and non-destructive traits. The description adds valuable behavioral specifics beyond annotations by detailing exactly what constitutes 'repair' (mismatched table columns, missing heading spaces, etc.), clarifying the transformation scope without contradicting the safety hints.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two dense sentences with zero waste. The first establishes purpose and context; the second enumerates specific fixes. Every clause earns its place, and the information is appropriately front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 100% schema coverage, idempotent annotations, and clear behavioral description, the definition is sufficiently complete. The lack of an output schema is partially mitigated by the parameter descriptions explaining the dual return modes (direct string vs. file write), though a brief summary of the return structure in the description would be ideal.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, establishing a baseline of 3. While the description implies the input content domain ('broken Markdown' with specific defects), it does not explicitly elaborate on parameter syntax, format constraints, or the optional output_path behaviors beyond what the schema already documents.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb ('Repair') with a clear resource ('Markdown') and explicitly scopes the functionality to 'LLM output or copy-paste.' It comprehensively lists specific defects handled (unclosed code fences, broken tables, stray emphasis, etc.), distinguishing it from generic conversion tools in the sibling list.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
It provides contextual usage hints by specifying the source ('LLM output or copy-paste'), implying when the tool is needed. However, it lacks explicit guidance distinguishing it from close siblings like 'lint_markdown' or 'harmonize_markdown' regarding when to repair versus lint or standardize.
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?
Annotations cover idempotency and safety (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false). The description adds valuable transformation semantics: specific mappings for headers, code blocks, links, and images. It does not explicitly mention file I/O behavior, though output_path schema covers this.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences total. First establishes purpose; second provides concrete syntax examples. Zero filler content. Every word earns its place by conveying AsciiDoc-specific formatting rules.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's straightforward conversion purpose, rich annotations, and comprehensive schema, the description is complete. It explains the transformation semantics adequately without needing to elaborate on return values (handled by schema).
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with detailed parameter descriptions (markdown supports GFM/KaTeX, output_path creates parent directories). Description focuses on transformation logic rather than repeating parameter specs, which is appropriate given the rich schema documentation.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description opens with specific verb 'Convert' and target format 'AsciiDoc', immediately clarifying scope. The detailed syntax transformations (= headers, ---- code blocks) distinguish it from siblings like convert_to_html or convert_to_rst that would produce different markup.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit 'when to use' or comparison with alternatives is stated. However, the specific AsciiDoc syntax examples (image::url, url[text]) implicitly signal this tool's domain versus other conversion siblings, providing contextual hints for selection.
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?
Annotations indicate idempotent=true and readOnly=false; the description adds valuable behavioral context that the tool conditionally writes files to disk when output_path is provided, versus returning content directly, and details the exact transformation logic for content conversion.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two well-structured sentences front-load the core purpose first, followed by specific syntax transformations. Efficient length with minimal redundancy, though the second sentence is dense with multiple examples.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a 2-parameter conversion utility with good annotations and no output schema, the description adequately covers transformation behavior, dual output modes, and input expectations. Could benefit from mentioning error handling or character encoding.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, the baseline is met, but the description adds meaningful context about supported Markdown syntax (tables, task lists) that clarifies valid input for the 'markdown' parameter beyond the schema's technical description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states 'Convert Markdown to JIRA wiki markup' with specific verb and resource. The detailed syntax examples (h1./h2., {code} blocks, [text|url] links) explicitly distinguish this from sibling converters like convert_to_confluence or convert_to_bbcode.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The specificity of 'JIRA wiki markup' provides implicit guidance for when to use this tool versus the 20+ other conversion siblings, but lacks explicit when-to-use guidance or comparisons like 'use when targeting Atlassian JIRA vs other wiki formats'.
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?
Leverages annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint) effectively while adding valuable output contract details. Describes exactly what the JSON contains (statistics, heading outline, code block summary with language/line counts, link summary), clarifying what 'structure' means operationally. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Three well-constructed sentences: purpose declaration, detailed output specification, and conceptual summary. Zero redundancy—every sentence advances understanding of tool capabilities. Front-loaded with the core action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, description comprehensively details return value structure (JSON components: statistics, headings, code blocks with metadata, links with counts). Combined with rich annotations covering behavioral traits, provides complete contractual information needed for agent invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with clear parameter description ('The Markdown text to extract structure from'). Description references 'Markdown document' but adds no additional semantic constraints (size limits, encoding requirements, valid markdown prerequisites) beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline 3 appropriate given complete schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Excellent specificity: 'Extract' (verb) + 'full structure of a Markdown document' (resource+scope). Distinguishes clearly from siblings like extract_code_blocks and extract_links by emphasizing 'full structure' versus specific elements, and from convert_to_* tools by focusing on structural analysis rather than format transformation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides implied usage through output description ('bird's-eye view of document architecture'), indicating this is for structural overview. However, lacks explicit when/when-not guidance or comparisons to siblings like analyze_document or the more specific extraction 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?
Excellent disclosure beyond annotations: details return structure (JSON array with line, column, severity, rule name, message, fixable flag) and enumerates specific lint rules checked (heading spaces, trailing whitespace, etc.). Matches readOnlyHint/destructiveHint annotations with 'report issues' framing.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, zero waste. First sentence establishes purpose and return format; second enumerates specific checks. Perfectly front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema exists, but description comprehensively documents return structure (array of issue objects with specific fields) and behavior. Combined with rich annotations (readOnly, idempotent), description provides complete context for invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% ('markdown' parameter fully described), meeting baseline. Description adds no additional parameter semantics, but schema carries full burden adequately.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clear specific verb ('Lint') + resource ('Markdown') plus scope ('report issues'). Distinguished from conversion siblings (convert_to_*) and extraction siblings (extract_*) by focusing on validation/reporting.

Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Without an output schema, the description fully compensates by detailing return structures (CSV string vs JSON object with specific fields), edge case behaviors (empty input handling), and side effect warnings necessary for safe invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, baseline is 3. The description adds value by connecting output_path to behavioral outcomes (overwriting existing files) and explaining the conditional return type logic tied to this parameter, though it doesn't significantly expand on the markdown parameter semantics.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description opens with a specific verb-resource combination ('Extract tables from Markdown and convert them to CSV format') and explicitly distinguishes from siblings by naming 'convert_to_xlsx' and 'convert_to_json' as alternatives for different use cases.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states when to use ('lightweight tabular export or when downstream tools expect CSV') and provides clear alternatives ('Prefer convert_to_xlsx for Excel-compatible spreadsheets... or convert_to_json for structured data'), guiding the agent away from incorrect selections.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Behavior5/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Excellent disclosure beyond annotations: details side effects (writes binary to disk, creates directories, overwrites files), explains dual return modes (JSON confirmation vs JSON binary-guidance with base64_preview), and clarifies the re-call pattern when output_path is omitted. Complements annotations (readOnly=false, destructive=false) with specific I/O behavior.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Well-structured progression: purpose → output characteristics → side effects → return values → usage comparisons. Each sentence provides distinct value. Minor verbosity in return value explanation could be tighter, but front-loading is strong and scannable.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, comprehensively documents both return structures (write-confirmation and binary-guidance objects). Adequately covers binary conversion complexity, file system interactions, and sibling tool landscape. No gaps given the tool's scope.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% coverage with detailed parameter descriptions. Description adds critical usage context beyond schema: emphasizes that output_path is nearly mandatory for binary formats and explains the functional difference between providing vs omitting the parameter. Slight deduction for not adding semantic nuances to the 'markdown' parameter beyond schema definition.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clear specific verb ('Convert') with source and target resources (Markdown to DOCX). Explicitly distinguishes from 21 sibling conversion tools by specifying 'Word-compatible documents' and contrasting with RTF, PDF, and HTML alternatives.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides explicit guidance on when to use ('Word-compatible documents') and clear alternatives ('Prefer convert_to_rtf for legacy... convert_to_pdf for read-only... convert_to_html for web'). Also specifies critical behavioral guidance that 'output_path should almost always be provided' for binary formats.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Behavior5/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Substantially augments annotations by detailing: external dependency requirements (Puppeteer, Chrome executable), runtime side effects (transient browser process, CDN fetching), file system behavior (creates parent directories, overwrites existing), and dual return modes (disk write vs JSON binary-guidance). No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Information-dense and front-loaded (purpose first). Length is justified by complexity (browser dependencies, binary output, two return paths). Minor deduction for slight verbosity in implementation details, but structure is logical: purpose → mechanism → prerequisites → side effects → returns → usage guidance.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Excellent coverage given high complexity and missing output schema. Compensates for no output_schema by exhaustively documenting both return variants (JSON confirmation vs base64_preview object), external system requirements, and behavioral side effects. Sibling differentiation is thorough among 24+ conversion tools.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 100% schema coverage, baseline is 3. Elevated to 4 by adding critical usage context: 'binary format — output_path should almost always be provided' and explaining the conditional return behavior based on output_path presence, neither of which is obvious from schema alone.
