Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.1

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct functionality: token price, native balance, name resolution, token safety, address safety, and gas fees. No overlap or ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools use snake_case with consistent verb_noun pattern: get_, check_, resolve_. Verbs are descriptive and uniform.

    Tool Count5/5

    Six tools is a well-scoped set for a read-only blockchain utility server. Not too few to be trivial nor too many to overwhelm.

    Completeness4/5

    Core features are covered: price, balance, name resolution, safety checks, gas. Missing a token balance tool for ERC-20 tokens, which is a minor gap but the set feels sufficient for most basic queries.

  • Average 3.7/5 across 6 of 6 tools scored.

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

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    The description only mentions 'Read-only' as a behavioral trait. With no annotations, the description fails to disclose authorization needs, rate limits, or response format.

    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, clear sentence with no extraneous information.

    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?

    For a simple tool, the description is adequate but lacks details on response format and any context about when to use this over sibling tools.

    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 50% (chain parameter lacks description). The description adds value by clarifying that address can be an ENS name, but does not elaborate on the chain parameter.

    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 reads the native coin balance of an address or ENS name. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like get_token_price and resolve_basename.

    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 versus alternatives, nor any prerequisites or context are provided.

    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?

    The description discloses that the tool is read-only and requires no authentication, which is helpful given the absence of annotations, but lacks details on rate limits, data freshness, or other behaviors.

    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 concise, using two short fragments and a sentence. No extraneous information, but could be slightly more structured.

    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?

    With no output schema and sparse descriptions, the agent lacks information about the return format (e.g., price in USD as a number) and chain default behavior, making it incomplete for a simple tool.

    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?

    The schema covers the token parameter's purpose (contract address) but not chain; the description adds no new semantic meaning beyond 'via DefiLlama'. With 50% schema coverage, the description does not fully compensate.

    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 the current USD price for a token via DefiLlama, distinguishing it from sibling tools like get_native_balance (which returns native coin balance) and others.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

    Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

    The description implies this tool is for token prices and is read-only with no keys needed, but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives or provide exclusions.

    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 full burden. It discloses that the tool is read-only and needs no authentication, but does not mention rate limits, side effects, or the exact nature of the search (e.g., whether it checks a local database or an API). It adds some value but is not exhaustive.

    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 sentence that front-loads the core purpose, then adds the read-only and no-keys qualifier. Every word adds value with no waste.

    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?

    The description is adequate for a simple check but lacks details about the output format (e.g., boolean, risk level) since no output schema exists. It also does not clarify how it differs from check_token_safety. It is minimally complete but has gaps.

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

    Parameters2/5

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

    Schema coverage is 50% (only address has a description). The tool description does not add meaning to the parameters beyond the schema: it mentions 'chain' implicitly via supported chains in the enum but provides no explanation of its role. The description should compensate for the 50% coverage but does not.

    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 verb 'check' and the resource 'an address against known-malicious databases' with specific categories (phishing, sanctioned, etc.). It distinguishes from siblings like check_token_safety by focusing on addresses in general.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

    Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

    The description notes that it is read-only and requires no keys, implying safe usage without authentication. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives like check_token_safety or when not to use it.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    Explicitly labels as read-only and mentions the additional L1 data fee for Base, disclosing key behavioral traits. No annotations present, so description carries the full burden.

    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 with no fluff, front-loaded with the core purpose, and efficiently adds a caveat without extra verbosity.

    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?

    With no output schema and only one parameter, the description could elaborate on return format (e.g., units) or error handling. The L1 fee note is helpful but the overall explanation feels minimal.

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

    Parameters1/5

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

    Despite 0% schema description coverage, the description provides no information about the 'chain' parameter, its enum values, or default. Schema alone does not explain the purpose of each chain option.

    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?

    States the action (get) and resource (gas price) clearly, with elaboration on EIP-1559 fee suggestion. Differentiates from sibling tools about tokens and balances.

    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 a specific use-case note about Base L1 fee, but does not explicitly contrast with other tools or state when to avoid using this tool.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It states 'Read-only, no keys' and cross-checks GoPlus + honeypot.is, but could add details on rate limits or error handling.

    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 main purpose, no wasted words. Efficient and clear.

    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?

    For a tool with 2 params and no output schema, description covers purpose, behavior, and supported chains. Could mention output format or errors, but adequate for most agents.

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

    Parameters2/5

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

    Schema covers 50% of parameters (token description). Description does not explain input parameters further; it focuses on output aspects. Chain enum is self-explanatory, but no additional context for token format.

    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 assesses ERC-20 token honeypot/rug risk, listing specific checks. It distinguishes from siblings like get_token_price and check_address_safety.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

    Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

    The description mentions 'Best on Base and Ethereum' but lacks explicit guidance on when to use vs alternatives or when not to use. No exclusions or prerequisites.

    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?

    No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses 'Read-only' and the resolver used, but does not describe error behavior or return format.

    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, no wasted words. Essential information is front-loaded.

    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?

    For a simple resolver with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers purpose and usage. Missing explicit mention of return type, but implied.

    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 description coverage is 100%, and the description adds value by providing an example and explaining what a Basename is, beyond the schema's brief description.

    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 verb 'Resolve' and resource 'Basename' to an address via Base L2 Resolver. It distinguishes from L1 ENS and siblings are unrelated.

    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?

    The description gives context that Basenames are ENS-compatible on Base and not resolvable by L1 ENS, implying when to use this tool. No explicit exclusions or alternatives mentioned.

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