Implementation Reference

  • The handler for boscli_cache_list. It's an async function that calls client.get('/boscli/cache') to fetch BOS cache configuration and status. No arguments are needed (schema: {}).
    {
      name: 'boscli_cache_list',
      description: 'Get BOS cache configuration and status',
      schema: {},
      handler: async (_, client) => client.get('/boscli/cache'),
  • The schema for boscli_cache_list is an empty object ({}), meaning the tool takes no input parameters.
    schema: {},
  • src/tools/cache.ts:4-4 (registration)
    The tool is defined as part of the cacheTools array export in src/tools/cache.ts, which is then imported and spread into the allTools array in src/index.ts (line 31). The registration loop at lines 55-76 of src/index.ts registers all tools with the MCP server using server.tool().
    export const cacheTools: McpTool[] = [
Behavior3/5

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

The description indicates a read operation ('get'), but with no annotations, it carries the full burden. It does not mention permissions, side effects, or what the response contains, though the operation is simple enough to infer safety.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is a single concise sentence with no unnecessary words, perfectly sized for its simple function.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given no output schema, the description would benefit from specifying the type of information returned (e.g., keys, configurations). It is adequate but minimal, lacking detail that could help the agent understand the output structure.

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

Parameters5/5

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

The input schema has no parameters, and the description adds no new information, which is acceptable since the schema coverage is 100%. No additional semantics are needed.

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 retrieves BOS cache configuration and status, distinguishing it from sibling tools like boscli_cache_clear which modifies cache.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives such as boscli_health_cache. The description implies it is for viewing cache state, but does not explicitly state when it is appropriate or when to avoid it.

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