Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v2.2.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool corresponds to a distinct HTTP method (or clone operation) with clear purposes: clone for local cloning, delete for deletions, get for reads, patch for partial updates, post for creations, and put for full replacements. There is no overlap.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent 'bb_<verb>' pattern using HTTP method names (clone, delete, get, patch, post, put). The naming is predictable and uniform.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 6 tools, the server provides a concise CRUD+L (clone) interface for Bitbucket. This is well-scoped for a MCP server; each tool has a clear role without unnecessary bloat.

    Completeness4/5

    The tools cover all standard CRUD operations plus cloning. However, specific workflows like merging or approving PRs are handled via generic post/put, which may require agents to construct endpoint paths. A dedicated tool for common composite operations could improve completeness slightly.

  • Average 4.5/5 across 6 of 6 tools scored.

    See the Tool Scores section below for per-tool breakdowns.

  • Add related servers to improve discoverability.

How to sync the server with GitHub?

Servers are automatically synced at least once per day, but you can also sync manually at any time to instantly update the server profile.

To manually sync the server, click the "Sync Server" button in the MCP server admin interface.

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?

    The description adds value beyond annotations by noting the default TOON output format, typical 204 No Content response, and the irreversible nature of deleting a repository. These details help the agent understand behavior without contradicting 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?

    The description is well-structured with clear sections, front-loaded purpose, and relevant examples. It is concise without being overly terse, though minor repetition ('Returns TOON format by default') could be trimmed.

    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 tool's complexity (4 parameters, no output schema), the description adequately covers output format, common operations, and parameter usage. It references an external API documentation link for completeness.

    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 description enriches parameters with practical examples (e.g., queryParams, jq expressions, outputFormat enum values) that go beyond the schema's basic descriptions, aiding correct invocation.

    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 'Delete Bitbucket resources' and lists specific common operations (delete branch, PR comment, decline PR, etc.), which distinguishes it from sibling tools (bb_get, bb_post, etc.) that have different HTTP methods.

    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 provides a list of common operations and a caution about irreversibility for deleting repositories, it lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives beyond the implied HTTP method differences.

    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 already provide readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=false, openWorldHint=true. The description adds valuable context: default TOON output format, cost optimization via jq param, and examples of common operations. It does not disclose error behavior or permission requirements, but the added details are useful.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is well-structured with a clear purpose statement, cost optimization note, output format info, and bulleted examples. It is moderately concise but could be trimmed slightly without losing clarity.

    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 5 parameters with 100% schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers essential usage patterns and output format. It lacks details on error handling or rate limits, but provides sufficient context for typical PATCH operations.

    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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description enhances understanding by providing concrete examples for each parameter (e.g., path examples, queryParams usage, jq expressions, body structures for PR updates). This goes beyond schema definitions.

    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 'Partially update Bitbucket resources' and provides specific examples of common operations (e.g., updating PR title, reviewers, repository properties). The verb 'patch' and examples distinguish it effectively from siblings (clone, delete, get, post, put).

    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?

    The description implies usage for partial updates via examples and contrasts with full updates (PUT) implicitly. However, it lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like bb_put, and does not mention when not to use it.

    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 already indicate non-read-only and non-destructive. Description adds behavioral details like default clone directory and fallback mechanism. No contradictions.

    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 concise sentences, front-loaded with core purpose, no redundancy. Every sentence adds value.

    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?

    Covers key points for a simple clone operation. No output schema, but return value is likely a confirmation. Could mention error handling (e.g., if path exists), but overall adequate.

    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 coverage is 100%. Description reinforces targetPath behavior (absolute path suggested, subdirectory creation) and optional workspaceSlug usage, adding practical meaning beyond raw schema.

    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 explicitly states the action 'Clone a Bitbucket repository' and destination 'local filesystem', distinguishing it from sibling CRUD tools (bb_get, bb_post, etc.).

    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 clear guidance on required parameters (repoSlug, targetPath), path behavior (clones into targetPath/repoSlug), and authentication precedence (SSH preferred, falls back to HTTPS). No explicit when-not-to-use, but context is clear.

    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 already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true. Description adds value by detailing default TOON format (token-efficient), automatic /2.0 prefix, and schema discovery pattern. No contradictions. Could mention pagination limits or error responses but still robust.

    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 with sections (Important, Schema Discovery, Common paths, etc.) and front-loaded with key guidance. Length is justified by the complexity of the Bitbucket API, but some redundancy in examples could be trimmed.

    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?

    For a read tool with no output schema, the description fully compensates by explaining output format, common paths, filters, and a discovery pattern. Covers all practical aspects an agent needs to invoke the tool correctly against Bitbucket API.

    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 coverage is 100% with descriptions for all 4 parameters. The description adds extensive examples (e.g., query param examples, jq expressions, outputFormat enum), providing meaning beyond the schema. More than baseline 3 due to rich contextualization.

    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 'Read any Bitbucket data' and emphasizes read-only nature with a list of common paths. It distinguishes from sibling write tools (bb_delete, bb_post, etc.) by specifying reading operations only.

    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 cost optimization guidelines: always use jq filter, use pagelen to limit results, and a schema discovery pattern. Also gives common paths and example filters, leaving no doubt when to use this read tool versus alternatives.

    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?

    The description fully discloses behavioral traits: default TOON format, cost optimization via jq, auto-added /2.0 prefix, and output format options. It aligns with annotations (not read-only, not destructive, not idempotent, open-world hint) and adds significant context beyond structured data.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is well-structured with a clear purpose statement, important cost optimization note, and a list of common operations. It is slightly verbose but front-loaded with key information, making it efficient for an AI agent.

    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?

    For a complex tool with 5 parameters, nested objects, and no output schema, the description is remarkably complete: it covers output formats, cost optimization, common endpoint patterns, and links to the full API reference. No gaps remain.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters5/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    Despite 100% schema description coverage, the description adds substantial meaning: detailed path examples, jq usage with examples, outputFormat benefits, body structure examples for common endpoints. This greatly aids parameter understanding.

    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 'Create Bitbucket resources' and provides multiple specific endpoint examples (create PR, add comment, approve, etc.), distinguishing it from sibling tools that handle other HTTP methods.

    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?

    The description explains when to use the tool (creating resources) and provides common operations with endpoint and body examples. It lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternative tool references, but the context signals and sibling tool list imply the usage boundaries.

    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?

    Beyond annotations, describes default TOON output format, automatic /2.0 prefix, and cost optimization behavior. 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?

    Well-structured with clear sections, but slightly verbose. Front-loaded with purpose and important notes. Could trim some redundant phrasing.

    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?

    Covers main usage patterns and cost optimization. Lacks explicit error handling or response structure details, but examples and reference link partially compensate. Good for a mutation tool with no output schema.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters5/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    All parameters have schema descriptions, and the tool description adds context: path format, jq usage examples, outputFormat enum explanation, and body structure examples. Significantly enhances schema.

    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?

    Clearly states it is for 'Replace Bitbucket resources (full update).' Distinguishes from sibling tools (bb_patch for partial updates) and provides common operation examples.

    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 recommends using PATCH for metadata when updating files, provides cost optimization tips (jq param), and lists specific common operations with endpoints and request bodies. Clearly guides when and how to use.

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