local_ydb_container_logs

Read-onlyIdempotent

Read recent Docker logs from YDB static or dynamic container to troubleshoot bootstrap, restart, or readiness check failures.

Instructions

Read recent Docker logs from the configured static or primary dynamic local-ydb container. Use when bootstrap, restart, or readiness checks fail; target selects the container role and lines controls the tail length.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
profileNoNamed profile from local-ydb.config.json. Defaults to config.defaultProfile.
configPathNoExplicit local-ydb config file path to load for this tool call. Useful when the MCP server should pick up a different config without restart.
targetYesContainer role to read logs from: static node or primary dynamic tenant node.
linesNoNumber of recent log lines to read. Defaults to 200.
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=true. The description adds context about container role and line count but does not disclose additional behavioral traits beyond the annotations.

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 sentences, front-loaded with action and resource, no wasted words. Efficiently communicates purpose and usage.

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 usage context and parameters. No output schema exists, but logs are inherently textual; a brief note on return format would improve completeness but is not essential.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for each parameter. The description repeats the parameter roles ('target selects container role, lines controls tail length') but adds no new meaning; baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 states the specific action ('Read recent Docker logs') and the resource ('static or primary dynamic local-ydb container'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools which are primarily operational.

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?

Explicitly says 'use when bootstrap, restart, or readiness checks fail'. Does not mention when not to use or alternatives, but sibling tools list shows no other log-reading tool, so context is clear.

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