Implementation Reference

  • The primary handler function for the 'get_synthesis' tool. It generates a final comprehensive synthesis using the LLM based on the best MCTS analysis, checks prerequisites, and returns structured results or errors.
    async def get_synthesis() -> dict[str, Any]:
        """
        Generate a final synthesis of the MCTS results.
    
        Creates a comprehensive summary that synthesizes the key insights from the best

        Returns:
            Dict containing the synthesis text, best score, and metadata
    
        Raises:
            Exception: If synthesis generation fails or MCTS hasn't been run yet

  • Registration of the 'get_synthesis' tool in the @server.list_tools() handler, defining its name, description, and empty input schema (no parameters required).
    types.Tool(
        name="get_synthesis",
        description="Generate a final synthesis of the MCTS results",
        inputSchema={"type": "object", "properties": {}}
    ),
  • Input schema for the 'get_synthesis' tool, which is an empty object indicating no input parameters are required.
    inputSchema={"type": "object", "properties": {}}
  • Dispatch logic in the @server.call_tool() handler that routes calls to the get_synthesis function.
    elif name == "get_synthesis":
        result = await get_synthesis()
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 of behavioral disclosure. It states the tool generates a synthesis, implying a read operation, but doesn't clarify if this is a computation-heavy process, if it requires specific states (e.g., completed MCTS runs), or what the output entails (e.g., summary vs. detailed analysis). The description lacks details on performance, side effects, or error conditions.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is a single, clear sentence that directly states the tool's function without redundancy. It's appropriately sized for a zero-parameter tool, though it could be slightly more informative (e.g., adding context about when to use it) without sacrificing conciseness.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the complexity of MCTS operations and the lack of annotations and output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what the synthesis includes (e.g., statistics, recommendations), how it relates to sibling tools, or any behavioral traits. For a tool that likely processes search results, more context is needed to guide effective use.

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?

The tool has 0 parameters, and schema description coverage is 100%, so there are no parameters to document. The description doesn't need to add parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides, earning a baseline score of 4 for this dimension, as it appropriately avoids unnecessary details.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states the tool's purpose ('Generate a final synthesis of the MCTS results') with a clear verb ('Generate') and resource ('MCTS results'), but it doesn't distinguish this from sibling tools like 'run_mcts_search' or 'get_status'. The purpose is understandable but lacks specificity about what makes this synthesis different from other operations.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does 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 doesn't mention prerequisites (e.g., whether MCTS must be initialized or run first), timing (e.g., after search completion), or how it differs from siblings like 'get_status' or 'run_mcts_search'. Without such context, usage is implied but not explicit.

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