Server Quality Checklist

58%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v1.4.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct operation: listing files, reading files, searching code, checking git status, viewing diffs, applying patches, committing, and running tests. No two tools have overlapping purposes, making selection unambiguous.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent `repo_` prefix with verb_noun snake_case naming (e.g., list_files, read_file, git_status, run_test). The pattern is uniform and predictable across the entire set.

    Tool Count5/5

    Eight tools is well-scoped for a local repository MCP server, covering file exploration, git inspection, patch application, committing, and testing without excess. Each tool serves a clear purpose.

    Completeness4/5

    The surface covers the core workflow: explore files, inspect git state, modify via patch, commit, and run verification commands. Minor gaps exist such as git log/history and branch management, but the primary workflow is complete and patch-based editing covers file modifications.

  • Average 2.3/5 across 8 of 8 tools scored. Lowest: 1/5.

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

  • Behavior1/5

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

    Tool has no description.

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

    Conciseness1/5

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

    Tool has no description.

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

    Completeness1/5

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

    Tool has no description.

    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?

    Tool has no description.

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

    Purpose1/5

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

    Tool has no description.

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

    Usage Guidelines1/5

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

    Tool has no description.

    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?

    With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It goes beyond the schema by explaining atomicity ('Git applies the patch as one locked operation'), validation ('All targets are validated before mutation'), and the guarantee that a target failure does not leave a partial multi-file edit. This is substantial behavioral context, though it does not address side effects like staging or committing.

    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 two sentences, front-loaded with the primary action ('Atomically apply...'). Every sentence adds value: the first defines the operation and format, the second elaborates on multi-file atomic behavior. No redundancy or filler.

    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 single-parameter tool with an output schema, the description is largely complete. It covers the core behavior (atomic apply), validation, and multi-file handling. It could mention prerequisites (e.g., patch must be relative to current HEAD) or explicit return behavior, but given the output schema exists, these omissions are acceptable.

    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 schema has one parameter 'patch' with no description (0% coverage). The description compensates by explaining that the patch is a 'unified text patch' and can contain multiple repository text-file targets. It also implies validation semantics. While it doesn't give detailed syntax, it adds meaningful meaning beyond the bare schema definition.

    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's function: 'Atomically apply one validated unified text patch.' It identifies the specific resource (repository text files) and distinguishes it from siblings like repo_git_diff (which shows diffs) and repo_git_commit (which commits changes). The phrase 'One patch may contain multiple repository text-file targets' further clarifies scope.

    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 the use case: applying a unified patch to a repository. It does not explicitly name alternatives or state when NOT to use this tool. Given siblings like repo_git_commit and repo_run_test, there is no direct comparison or exclusion. The atomicity and multi-target details provide some context, but explicit when-to-use/alternatives guidance is missing.

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

  • Behavior5/5

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

    With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden and covers key behavioral traits: local-only commit, no push/amend/reset/rebase/checkout/hooks, and never staging sensitive paths. It also discloses the configuration flag and mode requirement, offering comprehensive behavioral transparency.

    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 four short sentences with the core purpose front-loaded. Every sentence adds useful information, covering preconditions, exclusions, and security behavior with no fluff.

    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?

    The description covers purpose, conditions, mode requirements, exclusions, and sensitive-path safety, which is substantial for a mutation tool with no annotations. The presence of an output schema accounts for return-value details, so the description is sufficiently complete for context.

    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 0% and the description does not explain the `message` or `paths` parameters beyond general hints like 'Sensitive paths are never staged.' The message's purpose is inferable, but the paths parameter semantics remain underspecified for selecting specific changes to commit.

    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 opening sentence 'Create one local Git commit for allowlisted pending changes' uses a specific verb, resource, and scope. It clearly distinguishes this tool from sibling tools like repo_git_status and repo_apply_patch.

    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 provides preconditions (ALLOW_GIT_COMMIT enabled, write/test mode) and explicitly lists actions it does not perform (push, amend, reset, rebase, checkout, skip hooks). It gives clear context and exclusions, but does not explicitly name alternative tools for related operations.

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

  • Behavior5/5

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

    Even without annotations, the description fully discloses return fields ('command, exit_code, stdout, stderr, duration and truncation metadata'), timeout behavior ('structured failed result'), and the MCP_IMAGE emission mechanism. This goes beyond annotations would typically provide and prepares the agent for unusual outcomes.

    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 structured with a lead sentence defining the tool, followed by parameter-specific clarifications and behavioral details. It is moderately long but every sentence earns its place, with no filler or repetition.

    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?

    Given there are 4 parameters, an output schema, and no annotations, the description covers the tool's purpose, parameter options, return format, timeout behavior, and image handling. It is sufficiently complete for an agent to select and invoke the tool correctly.

    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?

    With 0% schema description coverage, the description compensates by explaining `command_key` vs `command_keys` and batch validation behavior. However, it does not explicitly document `stop_on_failure` and only implicitly references `timeout_seconds` via 'timeout/output-limit termination,' so it adds value for the main parameters but leaves some to inference.

    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 opens with 'Run one or more allowlisted repository verification commands,' which specifies the verb 'run' and resource 'repository verification commands.' This clearly distinguishes the tool from sibling file/git operations, as no other sibling runs commands.

    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 explains the allowlist scope (test/build/lint/check for common languages) and contrasts the single-command `command_key` with the batch `command_keys`, providing clear situational usage. It doesn't explicitly state when not to use the tool, but the scope restrictions imply that arbitrary commands are not allowed.

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