Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.1.0
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool serves a distinct purpose: health check, forward/reverse geocoding, isochrone generation, POI query, and reach scoring/comparison. No two tools overlap in function, minimizing agent confusion.
Naming Consistency4/5Most tools follow a verb_noun or noun_phrase pattern (geocode, reverse_geocode, compare_sites). However, 'isochrone' and 'catchment_pois' are noun-oriented rather than verb-first, introducing slight inconsistency but still clear.
Tool Count5/5With 7 tools, the server covers a focused domain (location reachability analysis) without bloat. Each tool feels necessary, and the count is well within the 3–15 sweet spot.
Completeness4/5The set provides a complete workflow: geocode, reverse geocode, compute isochrone, query POIs, score a site, and compare multiple sites. A minor gap is the lack of a tool to fetch POI details or handle transit-specific parameters, but core needs are met.
Average 4/5 across 7 of 7 tools scored.

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
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It describes the methodology and that it returns a score with breakdown, but lacks details on data sources, performance, or side effects. Acceptable but not thorough.
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?
Concise and front-loaded; every sentence adds value. No wasted 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?
Covers main functionality and required parameters, but omits explanation of optional parameters (weights, categories) and error conditions. Output schema exists, so return structure is less critical, but input completeness could be better. Adequate for moderate complexity.
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 only 17% (only mode has property-level description). Description adds value by explaining units and providing an example, but does not cover the optional parameters (weights, categories) or their semantics fully. Partial compensation.
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 it computes a composite reach score for a single OOH site using gravity-weighted POI density, junction density, and category diversity. Differentiates from siblings like isochrone (generates isochrone), catchment_pois (returns POIs), and compare_sites (compares multiple sites).
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. The description does not mention prerequisites or scenarios where other tools would be more appropriate.
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 cover behavior. It mentions that categories are enum-constrained (no free-text queries) and gives units, but does not address rate limits, errors, or how results are grouped. The output schema exists but is not referenced.
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 plus a code example, front-loaded with the main purpose. Every sentence adds value, and the example illustrates usage effectively.
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 output schema exists, the description focuses on inputs. It covers the core idea and units, but lacks details on parameter constraints (e.g., lat/lon ranges, max minutes, max categories) and does not clarify how it relates to sibling tools like isochrone.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is only 20%, so the description should compensate. It only adds that categories are enum-constrained (already in schema) and shows an example. It does not describe lat, lon, minutes, or mode beyond the example, leaving gaps in 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 clearly states that the tool returns points of interest inside a site's catchment, grouped by category. It provides specific details like units (decimal degrees, minutes) and an example, which helps distinguish it from siblings like geocode or isochrone.
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 obtaining POIs within a catchment area but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives like isochrone or site_reach_score. No when-not or exclusion criteria are 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 full burden for behavioral disclosure. It mentions server-side computation and deterministic ranking, but lacks details on auth, rate limits, or side effects (though it is a read-like operation). The tie-break chain and units are helpful, but more context could be added.
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 with two focused sentences plus an example. Every sentence adds value: purpose, tie-break, units, and usage illustration. No redundant or fluff content.
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 5 parameters and an output schema (not shown), the description covers core algorithm, tie-break, and example. It could briefly explain the effect of weights and categories parameters, but overall is adequate for the complexity.
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 low (20%), but the schema itself describes most parameters (mode, sites fields, weights, categories). The description adds an example and the tie-break chain, but does not explain minutes or weights in text. It compensates partially, but not fully for the low 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's purpose: ranking candidate sites by reach score, server-side and deterministic. It distinguishes from siblings by implying this is for multiple-site comparison (vs. single-site tools like site_reach_score) and includes tie-break chain and units.
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 ranking multiple sites via example and tie-break details, but does not explicitly state when to use vs. alternatives (e.g., isochrone, site_reach_score) or provide exclusions. No when-not-to-use guidance is given.
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 mentions output format and units, but does not state that the tool is read-only, nor discuss error conditions, performance, or other 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?
The description is three sentences: purpose, units, and example. It is front-loaded and contains no fluff. 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 that an output schema exists (context signal true), the description adequately explains the polygon output and units. It could mention coordinate system assumptions or empty-area behavior, but for typical usage it is sufficient.
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 only 25% (mode described), but the description adds units (decimal degrees for lat/lon, minutes, metres) and an example call. This compensates for missing schema descriptions and provides meaning beyond the raw 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?
The description clearly states 'Reachable-area polygon within a travel-time budget,' specifying the verb (compute) and resource (isochrone polygon). This distinguishes it from siblings like geocode, reverse_geocode, and catchment_pois, which have different purposes.
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 a reachable area polygon is needed but does not explicitly contrast with siblings or provide when-not-to-use advice. No exclusions or alternatives are mentioned.
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 mentions return value but does not explicitly state it is non-destructive or safe. However, the nature of a health-check tool implies safety.
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 short lines) and front-loaded with the purpose. Every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a trivial health-check tool with no parameters and an output schema, the description is complete. It includes an example and the required functionality.
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?
There are zero parameters, and schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter details, but with no parameters, a baseline of 4 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 it's a health-check tool that returns a specific status, distinguishing it from sibling tools (geocode, reverse_geocode, etc.) which have different purposes.
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 it 'confirm[s] reachability', which is the primary use case. It does not provide when-not-to-use or alternatives, but the context from sibling tools makes the usage clear.
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 specifies units (decimal degrees) and return type (display-name string), but does not disclose limitations, error handling, or coordinate bounds. Adequate but minimal.
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 and an example convey all necessary information without wasted words. The structure is front-loaded with the purpose, followed by units and an illustrative example.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the low complexity, presence of an output schema (not shown), and sibling tools, the description fully covers what the agent needs: it explains input meaning, output type, and provides an example. No gaps.
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?
The input schema has 0% description coverage, so the description must add meaning. It provides units and a concrete example, which substantially clarifies the parameters' expected values. This compensates for the schema's lack of 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 it reverse geocodes a coordinate to an address, using straightforward verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from the sibling tool 'geocode' (forward geocoding) by its name and action.
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 implies the tool is used when converting lat/lon to a human-readable address, but does not explicitly state when to use it vs alternatives or exclusions. Given the sibling context, it's clear but lacks explicit guidance.
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 explains output units and provides an example. It could mention rate limits or authorization, but the transparency is sufficient for a simple read-only geocoding 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?
Two clear sentences plus an example, front-loaded with the purpose. No unnecessary words or redundancy.
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 a simple input schema with one parameter and an output schema (though not detailed), the description covers input, output format, units, and an example, making it complete enough for correct invocation.
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?
The 'query' parameter has 0% schema description coverage, but the description clarifies it is a 'place name' and gives an example, adding necessary meaning beyond the schema structure.
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 ('geocode') and resource ('place name to WGS84 coordinate'), and the sibling 'reverse_geocode' implies the opposite direction, distinguishing this tool.
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 indicates forward geocoding usage but does not explicitly state when not to use it or provide alternatives beyond the implied reverse geocode.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
