Implementation Reference

  • Handler function for reset-pagination tool (shared with other reset tools). Sends DELETE request to `/indexes/${indexUid}/settings/pagination` (where endpoint='pagination') to reset the pagination settings to default.
    async ({ indexUid }) => {
      try {
        const response = await apiClient.delete(`/indexes/${indexUid}/settings/${endpoint}`);
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2) }],
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return createErrorResponse(error);
      }
    }
  • Input schema for reset-pagination tool: requires indexUid (string).
    {
      indexUid: z.string().describe("Unique identifier of the index"),
    },
  • Tool configuration in resetSettingsTools array defining the reset-pagination tool's name, endpoint ('pagination'), and description.
    {
      name: "reset-pagination",
      endpoint: "pagination",
      description: "Reset the pagination setting to its default value",
    },
  • forEach loop that dynamically registers all reset-* tools (including reset-pagination) via server.tool using the configuration from resetSettingsTools.
    resetSettingsTools.forEach(({ name, endpoint, description }) => {
      server.tool(
        name,
        description,
        {
          indexUid: z.string().describe("Unique identifier of the index"),
        },
        async ({ indexUid }) => {
          try {
            const response = await apiClient.delete(`/indexes/${indexUid}/settings/${endpoint}`);
            return {
              content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2) }],
            };
          } catch (error) {
            return createErrorResponse(error);
          }
        }
      );
    });
  • src/index.ts:67-67 (registration)
    Top-level registration call that invokes registerSettingsTools to add all settings tools, including reset-pagination, to the MCP server.
    registerSettingsTools(server);
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden. It states the tool resets to default, implying a mutation, but doesn't disclose behavioral traits like permissions needed, side effects (e.g., impact on search results), or error handling. It's vague and lacks critical context for safe invocation.

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, efficient sentence that front-loads the core action ('reset') and target. It wastes no words and is appropriately sized for a simple tool, making it easy for an agent to parse quickly.

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 and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what 'default value' means, what happens after reset (e.g., confirmation or error), or how it interacts with other settings. For a mutation tool with siblings, more context is needed to ensure correct usage.

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 100%, with the single parameter 'indexUid' well-documented in the schema. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, such as explaining what an index is or how the reset applies. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema handles parameter documentation adequately.

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 ('reset') and the target ('pagination setting'), specifying it sets to 'default value'. It distinguishes from siblings like 'update-pagination' (which modifies) and 'get-pagination' (which retrieves), though it doesn't explicitly name these alternatives. The purpose is specific but could be slightly more distinct.

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 like 'update-pagination' or 'get-pagination' is provided. The description implies usage for resetting to defaults, but lacks context on prerequisites, timing, or exclusions. It's minimal and doesn't help the agent choose between sibling tools.

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