Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct operation (e.g., fader, mute, EQ, send) on a specific resource (channel, bus, main, FX). Even similar tools like set_channel_fader and set_channel_mute are clearly differentiated by their purpose.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., assign_channel_name, set_channel_fader, get_channel_send_to_bus). There is no mixing of conventions or ambiguous verbs.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 19 tools covering channel, bus, main, FX, naming, info, and a raw OSC escape, the count is well-scoped for a mixer control server. It includes all essential operations without being bloated.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set covers core mixer operations (fader, mute, EQ, sends, main). Missing features like compressor or gate are offset by the send_raw_osc escape hatch, preventing dead ends.

  • Average 3.3/5 across 19 of 19 tools scored. Lowest: 2.7/5.

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?

    With no annotations provided, the description fails to disclose key behavioral aspects such as whether the fader level is normalized or in dB, whether it is a one-time read, or if authentication is needed. The description is overly minimal.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single concise sentence with no unnecessary words. However, it is too brief to be fully effective, lacking critical details.

    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?

    Given the simple tool with one parameter, no annotations, and an output schema that is not described, the description does not provide enough context about the return value format or the meaning of the fader level.

    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?

    The channel parameter lacks any description in the schema (0% coverage) and the tool description does not clarify what channel refers to (e.g., index or name). This leaves the agent with insufficient information to use the tool correctly.

    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 action (Query) and the resource (current fader level of an input channel). It is specific and distinguishes from sibling tools like set_channel_fader.

    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 is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., set_channel_fader). There is no mention of prerequisites or context for usage.

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

  • Behavior2/5

    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 says 'Set ... in dB' but does not disclose side effects (e.g., if setting to -inf mutes), valid ranges for level_db, or whether the bus must already exist. The behavioral impact of the operation is unclear.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is a single sentence with no wasted words, but it is too brief to be helpful. Every sentence should earn its place; here, one sentence is insufficient for a 3-parameter tool.

    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?

    Given no annotations, 3 required params, and an output schema (not detailed), the description is incomplete. It lacks essential details about parameter meanings, edge cases, and return behavior. The agent would have to guess or rely on the output schema.

    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 description coverage is 0%, but the description adds no meaning beyond the schema's generic titles. It does not explain what 'bus' and 'channel' accept (string vs integer) or the unit/range for 'level_db'. The phrase 'how much in dB' is vague.

    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 action 'Set' and the resource 'how much of a channel goes to a specific bus/monitor in dB', which matches the tool name exactly. It distinguishes from sibling tool 'get_channel_send_to_bus' which reads the value.

    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 (e.g., get_channel_send_to_bus, set_channel_fader). No prerequisites or context provided. The description only states what it does, not when to use it.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden. It discloses the tool sends raw OSC messages but does not describe error handling, response format, side effects, or authentication needs, leaving significant behavioral gaps.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is very short (two sentences) and front-loaded, but it is under-specified—it trades brevity for completeness, lacking essential details that would earn its place.

    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?

    Given the tool has 2 parameters, zero annotation coverage, and an output schema exists but is not described, the description is incomplete. It does not reference return values or behavior, failing to adequately support agent decision-making.

    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 description coverage is 0%; the description adds no meaning to the parameters 'address' and 'args' beyond what the schema provides (name and type). The agent gets no guidance on format, constraints, or examples.

    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 'Send a raw OSC message' as a verb+resource pair, and 'Escape hatch for any OSC command' distinguishes it from sibling tools like set_channel_fader or get_mixer_info, which are specific functions.

    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 usage as an escape hatch for arbitrary OSC commands, but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no when-not-to-use scenarios, 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?

    With no annotations, the description carries the transparency burden. It correctly implies a read-only, non-destructive operation, but does not disclose potential edge cases, return format, or error handling. The existing output schema may mitigate some gaps.

    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 a single, front-loaded sentence that efficiently conveys the core purpose. It wastes no words, though it could be improved by adding parameter or output context without losing conciseness.

    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 the simple read operation and presence of an output schema, the description is minimally sufficient. However, it does not explain the return values, parameter formats, or relationship to sibling tools, leaving gaps in completeness.

    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 adds no parameter-specific details. The terms 'channel' and 'bus' are not explained (e.g., names vs. IDs), leaving agents to infer meaning from context. The tool title also missing.

    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?

    The description clearly states the action (query) and resource (current send level from a channel to a bus). It distinguishes itself from the sibling 'set_channel_send_to_bus' by indicating a read operation, though it does not specify the value type or format.

    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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_channel_fader' or sibling getters. The description implies usage for reading a send level but lacks explicit context or exclusions.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It does not mention whether the name overwrites existing ones, any validation constraints, or side effects like routing changes. The description only covers the basic action.

    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 a single sentence with no wasted words, but it is too concise and lacks necessary details for full understanding.

    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?

    Given the absence of annotations and the presence of an output schema (not shown), the description is minimal. It fails to provide usage guidelines and behavioral details, making it incomplete for an agent to use safely.

    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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must add meaning for parameters. It gives the channel range (1-18) and an example for the name, adding some value beyond the schema, but lacks constraints like name length or allowed characters.

    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 action ('Give a channel a symbolic name') and specifies the resource (channel 1-18) with an example. This distinguishes it from siblings like 'assign_bus_name'.

    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 like 'assign_bus_name' or 'set_channel_fader'. No exclusions or context provided.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, and the description only says 'Connect' without disclosing whether the operation is destructive, idempotent, or modifies state. It does not describe behavior on failure or reconnect effects.

    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, well-structured sentence with no redundancy or unnecessary words.

    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?

    Given this is a foundational tool for a mixer control system, the description omits crucial context such as expected return values (output schema exists but not described), connection lifetime, and whether it can be called multiple times.

    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 description coverage is 0%. The description mentions IP and port with a default but does not clarify IP format (e.g., IPv4 string pattern) or port range, adding minimal value beyond the schema.

    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 connects to an XR18 mixer using IP and port, which distinguishes it from siblings that handle naming, faders, mutes, etc.

    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; it does not mention that connection is typically required before other operations, nor any prerequisites or exclusions.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    With no annotations, description must carry full burden. It only says 'enable or disable' but does not disclose reversibility, side effects, or whether existing EQ settings are preserved.

    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, no unnecessary words.

    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?

    For a simple toggle tool with no annotations and 2 required params, description is minimal. Doesn't explain output or constraints. Sibling tools have richer descriptions.

    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%, so description should compensate. It gives no meaning beyond parameter names. 'channel' could be string or integer but no format hint; 'enabled' is obvious.

    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?

    Description clearly states the action (enable/disable), resource (EQ), and target (channel). It is specific and distinguishes from sibling tool set_channel_eq which likely sets EQ parameters.

    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 guidelines on when to use this tool vs alternatives like set_channel_eq. No prerequisites or context for use provided.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    The description only states 'Query mixer info' without detailing what info is returned, side effects (likely none), or authentication needs. With no annotations, the agent gets little behavioral insight.

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

    Conciseness3/5

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

    The description is very short and to the point, but it could be slightly more informative without sacrificing conciseness.

    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?

    Despite having an output schema, the description lacks context about what the returned info includes or how it relates to other tools. It feels incomplete for a tool that likely provides foundational data.

    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?

    There are zero parameters, so the schema coverage is 100%. The description has no parameter information to add.

    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 'Query' and resource 'mixer info' via an endpoint. It distinguishes itself from siblings that perform specific mutations or assignments.

    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 is provided on when to use this tool over others. It doesn't indicate prerequisites, context, or typical use cases.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations provided. Description only states it sets EQ parameters, implying mutation, but does not disclose side effects, error conditions, or return value details.

    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?

    Single sentence, front-loaded with verb and resource. Efficient but could include brief parameter details without losing conciseness.

    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?

    Despite complexity (5 parameters, no annotations, no output schema explanation), description only covers basic purpose. Lacks parameter semantics, behavioral notes, and usage context, leaving significant gaps for agent.

    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?

    Input schema has 5 parameters with 0% description coverage. Description adds only that band is 1-4 and it's for a channel; no explanation of frequency_hz, gain_db, or Q meaning, units, or valid ranges.

    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?

    Description clearly states the action 'Set' on resource 'EQ parameters for a channel band (1-4)', which is specific and distinguishes from sibling tools like set_channel_eq_on.

    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?

    No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The purpose is implied but lacks context on prerequisites or when not to use.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are present, so the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It only states the basic action and bus parameter format, omitting details like level range, side effects, or whether the change is immediate and reversible.

    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 concise sentences convey the core information without redundancy. The first sentence states the action and unit, the second clarifies the bus parameter. No filler or irrelevant details.

    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 an output schema present, the description need not explain return values. However, for a simple setter tool, missing details like valid level range or constraints on 'level_db' reduce completeness. The description covers the essential purpose but leaves gaps.

    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 description coverage is 0%. The description partially compensates by clarifying that 'bus' can be a number (1-6) or name. However, 'level_db' receives no additional semantics beyond being a number in dB, which is already implied.

    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 action ('Set'), resource ('bus master fader'), and unit ('dB'). It implicitly distinguishes from sibling tools like set_channel_fader and set_main_fader by specifying 'bus', making its purpose unambiguous.

    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 (e.g., set_channel_fader, set_main_fader). No prerequisites, context, or exclusions are provided, leaving the agent without strategic usage context.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, and the description does not disclose side effects, required permissions, error handling, or behavior for out-of-range values. Only the channel type is clarified, but that is already in the schema.

    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 is direct and to the point, with no wasted words. It is well-structured for quick parsing.

    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?

    While the tool is simple and there is an output schema, the description does not mention what happens on errors, validation, or if the channel is invalid. For a basic setter, this is adequate but could be more complete.

    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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must add value. It clarifies that channel can be a number (1-18) or name, but for level_db it provides no additional context (e.g., typical range or meaning). This partially compensates but is insufficient for full clarity.

    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 explicitly states the action (set), the resource (input channel fader level), and the unit (dB), distinguishing it from sibling tools like set_bus_fader or set_main_fader.

    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 (e.g., set_channel_mute) or when not to use it. The description assumes the agent knows when to set a fader level.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses that the operation sets a level in dB and slot range, but omits behavioral details such as whether the operation is reversible, required permissions, error behavior for out-of-range values, or side effects.

    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?

    A single sentence with 12 words, highly concise and front-loaded with essential information. No extraneous content.

    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 tool has 2 required parameters and an output schema. The description covers the slot range but lacks details on level_db constraints and does not mention the output schema or any side effects. Adequate but not comprehensive.

    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 has no descriptions for parameters (0% coverage). The description adds the slot range (1-4) for fx_slot but provides no information on level_db beyond 'dB'. Parameter semantics are partially improved but incomplete.

    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?

    Description clearly states the action ('set'), the resource ('FX send fader level'), the unit ('dB'), and the valid range ('slot 1-4'). It distinguishes from sibling tools like set_channel_fader and set_bus_fader.

    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 provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any prerequisites or context. The description only states what it does, not usage conditions.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations exist, so the description must carry the behavioral burden. It only states the action and unit but does not disclose overrides, instantaneity, required permissions, or valid dB range. Minimal disclosure.

    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?

    One short sentence with no wasted words. The key information is front-loaded. Highly concise.

    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 with one parameter, the description is minimally adequate. However, it lacks information about return values (though an output schema exists) and any preconditions. It does not fully cover operational context.

    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 description coverage is 0%, requiring the description to compensate. It adds the context 'in dB' to the parameter level_db, which is helpful but does not provide range, limits, or examples. Barely above baseline.

    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 action ('Set'), resource ('main LR output fader'), and unit ('in dB'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like set_channel_fader and set_bus_fader by specifying 'main LR output'.

    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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., set_channel_fader). It does not mention prerequisites or context such as mixer state.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations exist, and the description only states the basic action without disclosing side effects, state changes, or operational details.

    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?

    One short sentence with no extraneous information.

    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?

    Despite the simple tool lacking output details, the description covers the essential purpose for a basic set operation.

    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?

    The single boolean parameter 'muted' is not explicitly described; schema coverage is 0%, and the description only implies the mapping of boolean to mute/unmute.

    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 'Mute or unmute the main LR output' clearly states the verb and resource, distinguishing it from siblings like set_channel_mute and set_bus_mute.

    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, or any context about prerequisites 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.

  • Behavior3/5

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

    No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It correctly states the muting behavior but does not disclose side effects, permission needs, or error handling. Adequate for a simple toggle.

    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?

    Single sentence, efficient and to the point. However, it could include more useful information without significant bloat, such as expected return values or the effect of the boolean.

    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 the simplicity of the tool (two params, no nested objects, output schema exists), the description is minimally adequate. It lacks explanation of the output or failure modes, but for a straightforward toggle this is acceptable.

    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%, so description must compensate. It partially explains the 'channel' parameter (number or name, range 1-18) but provides no details on the 'muted' parameter (its boolean nature is only implied by the tool name). Insufficient for full understanding.

    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 action (mute/unmute) and resource (input channel). It distinguishes from siblings like set_bus_mute by specifying 'input channel', and from other channel tools by the specific action.

    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?

    No explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. The description implies usage for muting/unmuting channels but does not differentiate from similar operations or provide context like prerequisites.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the basic mute/unmute action without explaining side effects, permissions, or impact on audio routing.

    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 with two short sentences covering the essential information. However, it could briefly note that 'muted' is a boolean without increasing length significantly.

    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 the presence of an output schema, the description adequately introduces the tool but lacks guidance on when to mute a bus vs. a channel or the expected behavior of the muted parameter.

    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 coverage is 0%, but the description clarifies that the 'bus' parameter accepts a number (1-6) or a name, adding value beyond the schema. The 'muted' parameter's meaning is left implicit from the tool name.

    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 action (mute or unmute) and the resource (a bus). It also specifies that the bus can be identified by a number (1-6) or a name, distinguishing it from channel-related tools.

    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 provides basic guidance on bus identification (number or name), but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like set_channel_mute or set_bus_fader. Usage context is implied but not fully articulated.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden for behavioral disclosure. It does not mention side effects (e.g., overwriting existing names), error handling for out-of-range buses, or idempotency. Only the basic action and an example are given.

    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, front-loaded sentence with no wasted words. It efficiently conveys the core action and an example, earning its place.

    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 the presence of an output schema, the description does not need to explain return values. However, it lacks information on behavior like overwrite policy or error conditions. For a simple tool, it is adequate but has gaps.

    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 coverage is 0%, so the description compensates by adding meaning: it specifies the bus range (1-6) and provides an example of the name ('Drummer'). This adds value beyond the raw schema types, though it could detail constraints on the name string.

    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 action ('Give a bus (1-6) a symbolic name') with a concrete example. It specifies the resource (bus) and the range (1-6), distinguishing it from sibling tools like assign_channel_name which handle channels.

    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 usage for naming buses but does not provide explicit guidance on when not to use it, alternatives, or prerequisites. The context is clear but lacks exclusions or comparative advice.

    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, the description carries full burden. It states 'Mute or unmute' which implies a binary toggle, but does not disclose side effects (e.g., does it affect other sends?), immediacy, or whether it is destructive. Basic behavior is clear but lacks depth.

    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 with no extraneous words. It is front-loaded with the action and resource, and every word is necessary.

    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 tool is simple (2 params, boolean + integer), but critical context is missing: which channel does this FX send belong to? The tool name does not specify a channel; it likely operates on a 'currently selected' channel, which is not stated. With an output schema present, return values are not needed, but the missing channel context is a significant gap for an agent.

    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 coverage is 0% (no descriptions), so the description must add meaning. It specifies that 'fx_slot' ranges from 1-4, which is not in the schema. The boolean 'muted' is self-explanatory, but no additional format or constraints are given. The added range information is valuable.

    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 action ('Mute or unmute') and the resource ('FX send (slot 1-4)'). It distinguishes this tool from siblings like 'set_fx_send_fader' (adjusts level) and 'set_channel_mute' (mutes channel). The scope is precise.

    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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention that this tool operates on a specific channel or provide context like 'use this to enable/disable an FX send' without mentioning constraints 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?

    With no annotations, the description conveys a read-only operation via 'Show', but lacks details on whether this reflects real-time state, any performance considerations, or authorization requirements. Adequate but minimal.

    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 extraneous words.

    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?

    Tool is simple with no parameters and an output schema present; description adequately informs the agent of the tool's purpose and result.

    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?

    No parameters exist; schema coverage is 100%. Baseline 4 applies as description need not add param info.

    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?

    Description clearly states the verb 'Show' and the resource 'current channel and bus name assignments', making the purpose unambiguous. It distinguishes from siblings like assign_channel_name which are write operations.

    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?

    Implied usage is to retrieve current names, but no explicit guidance on when to use vs alternatives like assign_channel_name for setting names. No exclusions or prerequisites mentioned.

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