doc-bot
Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v2.0.5
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: docset management (add, list, remove), documentation retrieval (search, read by file, read by ID, index, refresh), rule creation/update, API deep dive, and guidance. Overlaps are minimal and descriptions clarify boundaries.
Naming Consistency4/5Most tools use a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (e.g., add_docset, search_documentation). The tool 'doc_bot' breaks this pattern as a noun_noun, but it's a single outlier and still readable.
Tool Count5/511 tools is well-scoped for a documentation MCP server. The set covers docset operations, documentation queries, rule management, and guidance without being overwhelming or too sparse.
Completeness5/5The tool surface covers the full documentation lifecycle: install/remove docsets, create/update rules, search, read, index, and refresh. Missing operations like document deletion are not clearly needed based on the domain, so no obvious gaps.
Average 3.4/5 across 11 of 11 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
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must disclose behavioral details. It fails to explain what 'deep dive' entails, such as whether it returns methods, properties, full documentation text, or any side effects like rate limits or authentication requirements.
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 is to the point. It wastes no words, though it could benefit from a slightly more structured breakdown of functionality.
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 no output schema and no annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain what the tool returns, the format, or the depth of exploration. Users are left guessing what 'deep dive' actually produces.
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 with good examples for 'apiName'. The description adds little extra meaning beyond the schema, just reinforcing the concept of exploration. Baseline 3 is appropriate due to high schema 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: 'Deep dive into any API, framework, or class from installed docsets.' It uses a specific verb ('deep dive') and identifies the resource, distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'search_documentation'.
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. It does not mention prerequisites, when to avoid using it, or compare to siblings like 'search_documentation' or 'get_file_docs'.
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 behavior. It states the tool lists files, but fails to mention any potential side effects, prerequisites, or constraints (e.g., what 'available' means). Behavior beyond the basic action is unclear.
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 effectively communicates the tool's purpose with no redundancy or unnecessary information. Highly 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?
The description is adequate for a simple list tool with no parameters, but lacks context regarding its relationship to sibling tools (e.g., when to use this vs 'list_docsets'). No output schema means return values are not explained.
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 no parameters (100% coverage), so the description does not need to add parameter detail. Baseline score of 4 is appropriate as the schema fully documents the interface.
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 'List all available project documentation files with titles and metadata', specifying verb (list) and resource (project documentation files). However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like 'list_docsets' or 'get_file_docs', 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 such as 'list_docsets' or 'search_documentation'. The description lacks context for tool selection.
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 the full burden of disclosing behavioral traits. It states the tool searches documentation but does not mention pagination behavior, rate limits, side effects, or how results are returned. The schema implies pagination via 'page' and 'limit' parameters, but this is not surfaced in the description.
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 consists of two short sentences, which is concise and front-loaded. Every sentence adds value, though the structure is minimal. A 4 is given because it is efficient but not exceptionally organized.
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 5 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is somewhat lacking. It does not explain the return format, pagination behavior, or how to effectively use parameters. For a search tool, this is 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 5 parameters have descriptions in the schema (100% coverage), so the baseline is 3. The description itself adds no additional meaning beyond what is already in the schema; it does not explain parameter interactions or provide usage examples.
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 searches project documentation and API references for patterns and examples. It uses the verb 'search' and specifies the resource, making the purpose clear. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from siblings like 'get_document_index' or 'explore_api', so a 4 is appropriate.
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 the phrase 'Use early and often to stay aligned with current docs,' which provides a general usage hint but lacks explicit guidance on when not to use this tool or when to prefer alternatives. 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.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description fully determines behavioral transparency. It indicates a write operation ('Install') but does not disclose side effects (e.g., overwrite behavior, storage location, permissions, or error handling). The lack of detail on what happens after installation reduces transparency.
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 highly concise sentences, front-loading the core purpose and supported sources. Every word adds value with 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 one-parameter tool with no annotations or output schema, the description is mostly adequate but lacks details on return behavior (e.g., success confirmation, error messages) and usage context. It covers the basic interface 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?
The schema already covers the single parameter 'source' with 100% description coverage, including examples. The description adds context ('for API reference' and 'local .docset files and direct URLs') but does not significantly add meaning beyond the schema. 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 action 'Install', the resource 'documentation set (docset)', and the purpose 'for API reference'. It also specifies the supported formats (local files and URLs), effectively distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'list_docsets' and 'remove_docset'.
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 (e.g., 'refresh_documentation' or 'search_documentation'). There is no mention of prerequisites, typical use cases, or limitations, leaving the agent without context for selection.
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 the full burden. It discloses that the tool suggests docs, search hints, and upkeep steps, giving a reasonable idea of behavior. However, it does not detail return format, side effects, or limitations, leaving some ambiguity.
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 with two sentences: the first defines the purpose, the second provides usage guidance. No filler or repetition, and the key information is front-loaded.
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 2 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description provides basic purpose and usage context. It lacks details on what the tool actually returns (e.g., list of documents? steps?) and how it differs from siblings like search_documentation. It is minimally complete but not fully informative.
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%, and the schema already clearly describes both parameters (task with examples, page with default). The tool description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 3 applies.
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 provides 'documentation MCP guidance' including suggesting docs, search hints, and doc upkeep steps. It distinguishes from sibling tools like add_docset or read_specific_document by focusing on general guidance rather than specific document operations.
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 says 'Use frequently to stay aligned and capture new knowledge,' which is vague and lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. No alternatives are mentioned, and context for choosing this tool over siblings like search_documentation or explore_api is missing.
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 the description carries full burden. It claims to read full file content but the schema includes a page parameter for pagination, creating ambiguity. It does not disclose error handling, file format, or size limits, leaving critical behavioral gaps.
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 front-loads the purpose. It could be more structured to include usage guidance or pagination clarification, but it efficiently conveys the core action.
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 no output schema and two parameters, the description lacks completeness: it does not explain return values, pagination behavior, file type, or how to discover available files. The context signals show a 100% parameter coverage, but the description fails to integrate that into a coherent operational guide.
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 baseline is 3. The description adds no additional parameter context beyond what the schema already provides (fileName must match exactly, page for paginated content).
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 reads full documentation file content when complete context is needed. It uses specific verb 'Read' and resource 'documentation file content', distinguishing it from siblings like search_documentation (searching) and get_document_index (listing documents).
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 complete context is needed but does not explicitly state when to avoid this tool or mention alternatives. It lacks guidance on prerequisites like file existence or how to find the exact fileName, though schema provides a must-match requirement.
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 only mentions 'create or update' (upsert behavior), but lacks details on side effects, idempotency, or what happens on update vs create. The boolean parameter 'alwaysApply' is not explained in description.
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 action, and contains no unnecessary words. It is concise and to the point.
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 9 parameters and no output schema, the description does not explain the purpose of rules vs other doc tools, return values, or the effect of fields like 'alwaysApply'. It is incomplete for an agent to understand all aspects of invocation.
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 description adds no additional semantic meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the description does not compensate with extra context for the 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?
The description clearly states the action (create or update) and resource (documentation) with a specific context (discovering patterns, decisions, changes). It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'add_docset' or 'search_documentation' by focusing on individual documentation rules.
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 clear context for when to use: 'as you discover new patterns, decisions, or changes' and 'to keep docs current for future agents'. No explicit exclusions or alternatives are mentioned, but the context is clear.
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 implies a read-only operation but does not mention side effects, authentication needs, rate limits, or what happens if no match is found. This is insufficient for a tool with no annotation support.
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 with two sentences: one explaining the function and one providing usage guidance. Every sentence adds value with 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 tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description gives adequate context for basic use. However, it lacks details on return format, behavior on no match, or explanation of 'frontmatter filePatterns', making it only moderately complete.
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 already fully describes the 'filePath' parameter with examples (100% coverage). The tool description adds no additional semantics beyond the schema, so the 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 tool retrieves documentation matching a file path or pattern using frontmatter filePatterns. It distinguishes itself from siblings like 'search_documentation' by specifying a file-path-based use case.
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 'Use when editing a specific file or directory,' providing clear usage context. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use or compare with alternative tools like 'search_documentation' or 'read_specific_document'.
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 states it reloads documentation from disk, but fails to disclose if this is destructive, whether it requires permissions, or what the side effects are (e.g., overwriting in-memory state). This is insufficient for a mutation-like operation.
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, clear sentence that front-loads the action. No unnecessary words, making it highly 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?
With no output schema and no annotations, the description should explain what happens after reload (return value, confirmation). It does not describe the result or whether it's safe to call repeatedly, leaving gaps for the agent.
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 no parameters, so the schema coverage is effectively 100%. The description adds no parameter info, but given zero parameters, the baseline is 4. It could mention that the tool is stateless, but not required.
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 'Reload' and the resource 'all project documentation from disk', with a specific trigger condition. It distinguishes from siblings like add_docset or list_docsets which serve 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 docs are updated externally, but does not explicitly state when not to use or provide alternatives. For such a simple tool, the guidance is minimal but acceptable.
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 full burden but only states the basic destructive action. It omits details on reversibility, permissions, or side effects, which are important for a deletion 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 concise sentences. The first sentence delivers the core purpose, the second provides usage guidance. No unnecessary information.
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 simple one-parameter tool and no output schema, the description is adequate but minimal. It lacks information about return values or confirmations, and the absence of annotations leaves behavioral assumptions unaddressed.
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 description already explains the parameter's purpose and source. The description does not add additional meaning beyond the 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 the action ('Remove') and the resource ('an installed documentation set'). It distinguishes from siblings like 'add_docset' which adds, and 'list_docsets' which lists.
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 instructs to use 'list_docsets first to see available docsets and their IDs', providing a prerequisite for proper use. However, it does not specify when not to use the tool or mention alternatives.
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 behavior. It only states it lists and shows IDs, names, and details, but omits that it is read-only, safe, and returns a list. The lack of behavioral context is a 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 a single sentence with no redundancy. It is front-loaded and every word 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 the tool's simplicity (no parameters, no output schema), the description adequately states what is listed. It could mention that the output is an array, but that is minor.
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 tool has no parameters, and the baseline is 4. The description adds no parameter information, which is acceptable since schema coverage is 100% and no parameters exist.
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 specific verb 'list' and resource 'docsets', clearly identifying its action. It distinguishes from sibling tools like add_docset and remove_docset by stating it shows all installed documentation sets.
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 use when needing to see installed docs, but does not explicitly state when to use or not use it. No alternatives or exclusions are mentioned.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
