analyze_model

Scan Power BI models for best-practice issues like missing format strings and unrelated tables, then receive actionable findings to fix them.

Instructions

Read-only best-practices scan: measures/columns missing format strings, tables in no relationship, etc. Returns a list of findings to fix.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
sessionIdYes
Behavior3/5

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

Without annotations, description states 'read-only' and 'returns a list of findings', covering safety and output, but doesn't discuss prerequisites, limitations, or side effects beyond that.

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?

Single sentence, front-loaded with key information, no redundant words.

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?

Simple tool with one parameter, but the missing parameter explanation and lack of usage guidance leave gaps despite clear purpose and output.

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?

Schema coverage is 0%, and description never mentions sessionId, leaving the only required parameter completely unexplained.

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

Purpose4/5

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

Description specifies a 'read-only best-practices scan' with concrete examples (format strings, relationships), but doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like run_bpa or audit_star_schema.

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?

Implies use case via 'best-practices scan' and 'findings to fix' but provides no explicit when-to-use or alternatives.

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