ScratchRun MCP Server

Server Quality Checklist

75%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.1

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusion between tools. The tool's purpose is clearly described as sandboxed code execution, making it unambiguous.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    The single tool name 'scratchrun_exec' follows a clear snake_case pattern with a descriptive prefix and verb. Consistency is trivially maintained when there is only one tool.

    Tool Count5/5

    The server is focused entirely on one function: executing code in an ephemeral sandbox. One tool is exactly the right size for this narrow, well-defined purpose, and the parameter space covers execution, environment variables, and file output.

    Completeness5/5

    For the server's stated purpose (sandboxed code execution), the tool fully covers the lifecycle: execute code, pass environment variables, and retrieve output files. No obvious missing operations exist within the domain.

  • Average 4.7/5 across 1 of 1 tools scored.

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

    • No community issues in the last 6 months

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

  • Behavior5/5

    Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

    With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden and excels: it discloses hard-purge/no persistence, full internet egress with RFC 1918/cloud metadata blocks, and how to retrieve artifacts. This is rich behavioral context beyond basic function.

    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?

    The description is compact and front-loaded with the primary purpose. Every sentence adds value—covering security, persistence, file capture, and secrets—without redundancy or filler.

    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 or annotations, the description provides comprehensive context: execution environment, security boundaries, state persistence, artifact retrieval, and secrets handling. It addresses the tool's complexity and likely pitfalls.

    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%, providing baseline 3. The description adds extra meaning by explaining the purpose of return_files (base64-encoded artifacts) and recommending env for secrets, reinforcing and supplementing schema descriptions.

    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 tool executes code in an ephemeral, MicroVM-isolated sandbox, using a specific verb and resource. It conveys the core function and distinctive characteristics (isolation, ephemerality) without ambiguity.

    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 practical usage guidance such as using return_files to capture output artifacts and passing secrets via env instead of code strings. It implies appropriate contexts (e.g., untrusted code, one-off executions) though it doesn't explicitly contrast with alternatives, as none are listed.

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

GitHub Badge

Glama performs regular codebase and documentation scans to:

  • Confirm that the MCP server is working as expected.
  • Confirm that there are no obvious security issues.
  • Evaluate tool definition quality.

Our badge communicates server capabilities, safety, and installation instructions.
