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 resource and action: arXiv fetching, HEPData metadata and download, INSPIRE search and BibTeX, likelihood patch listing, and bundle validation. No two tools have overlapping purposes.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All names use snake_case and are lowercase. Most follow a resource_verb or resource_verb_object pattern (e.g., arxiv_fetch, hepdata_get), but 'inspire_bibtex' is just resource_object and slightly inconsistent. Overall, the pattern is clear and predictable.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 7 tools, the set is well-scoped for the domain of high-energy physics data access and validation. Each tool serves a clear purpose without redundancy or unnecessary complexity.

    Completeness4/5

    The tools cover core workflows: searching literature, fetching papers and BibTeX, accessing HEPData records and likelihoods, and validating analysis bundles. Minor gaps include no direct PDF download from arXiv and no HEPData search, but these are not critical for the intended use.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Without annotations, the description partially discloses behavior by listing returned fields (titles, authors, arXiv IDs, etc.) and mentioning query syntax. However, it omits details like rate limits, authentication, error handling, or pagination behavior.

    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 paragraphs and front-loads the main purpose. Every sentence adds value, though the structure could be more organized with bullet points for the returned fields.

    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 lists returned fields. However, it does not mention that results are returned as a list, how pagination works, or error scenarios. The default sort order and size are not explained.

    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%, so the description must compensate. It includes query examples but does not explain the 'size' and 'sort' parameters. This leaves significant ambiguity about their meaning and allowed values.

    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 searches the INSPIRE-HEP literature database for high-energy physics papers, with specific examples of query syntax. It distinguishes itself from siblings like arxiv_fetch and hepdata_get by focusing on the INSPIRE database.

    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 examples of queries but does not explicitly guide when to use this tool versus alternatives. It implies usage for literature search but lacks direct 'when to use' or 'when not to use' statements.

    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, the description carries full burden. It only says 'download and extract' without disclosing side effects (e.g., file overwriting, required permissions, or error handling). This is insufficient for an AI agent to understand the full behavioral impact.

    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 core action, and contains no extraneous words. Every sentence adds value.

    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 covers the basic function and a key prerequisite (URL from hepdata_get), but fails to describe output behavior, error conditions, or whether the output directory must exist. With an output schema available, the description could have referenced it.

    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%, yet the description merely names the parameters ('resource URL' and 'local output directory') without adding constraints, formats, or defaults. The agent gains little extra meaning 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 verb 'Download and extract' and the resource 'published pyhf likelihood archive from HEPData', distinguishing it from sibling tools like hepdata_get which presumably retrieves metadata, and other tools.

    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 specifies that the resource URL comes from hepdata_get, giving clear context on prerequisite usage. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or mention alternatives.

    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 exist, so the description must cover behavior. It mentions reproducibility (rerun and verify results) but lacks details on side effects, permissions, or failure modes. Adequate but not fully transparent.

    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 one sentence with a list of checks, which is efficient. However, it could be more structured (e.g., bullet points) for readability.

    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 an output schema exists, the description covers the tool's actions adequately. Parameter details are missing, but the core purpose is clear. Adequate for a validation tool with simple parameters.

    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 provides no parameter-level details. It mentions 'bundle_dir' implicitly but does not explain 'run' or 'compile_pdf'. Fails to compensate for missing schema descriptions.

    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 lists all validation checks (layout, reproducibility, macros, etc.), leaving no ambiguity about the tool's purpose. It distinguishes from siblings, which are unrelated search/fetch tools.

    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 implies usage for validating analysis bundles but does not explicitly state when to use versus alternatives. However, sibling tools are very different, so context suffices.

    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 the burden. It discloses the core action (list patches) and mentions the required file (patchset.json), but does not discuss behavior like error handling or whether it's read-only. Simplicity and presence of output schema make this adequate.

    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 that front-loads the action and includes key context. No extraneous words.

    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?

    Given the tool's simplicity (1 param, has output schema), the description covers the essential context: what is listed, from what source. Could mention the output type implicitly via schema, but overall complete.

    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%, yet the description only adds that the directory must contain patchset.json, not clarifying the parameter's type or format. The meaning of workspace_dir is partially inferred but not explicit.

    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 tool lists signal patches (model points) from a downloaded published-likelihood directory containing patchset.json, with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like hepdata_download_likelihood.

    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 the tool should be used after downloading a likelihood directory, but does not explicitly state when to use or when not, nor does it mention alternatives. Siblings are provided but not referenced.

    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 the behavioral transparency burden. It mentions that fulltext availability varies by paper, which is a useful behavioral trait. However, it omits details on authentication, rate limits, and error handling that would be expected for network-based fetch operations.

    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 consists of two efficient sentences. The first sentence front-loads the core purpose, and the second provides parameter details without excess text. Every sentence contributes meaning.

    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 two-parameter tool with an output schema, the description covers the key usage points: what each section returns and the availability caveat for fulltext. It lacks mention of error conditions or ID format, but given the tool's simplicity and presence of an output schema, it is largely 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?

    The schema has 0% description coverage, so the description must compensate. It explains the 'section' parameter's allowed values and what each returns, adding value beyond the schema. The 'arxiv_id' parameter is implied by context but not explicitly described (e.g., format or examples), leaving some ambiguity.

    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 'Fetch an arXiv paper' with specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools focused on HEP data (inspire_search, hepdata_get) by explicitly targeting arXiv papers.

    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 explains the two section options (abstract vs fulltext) and their return types, providing context for usage. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives or mention prerequisites, missing clear usage guidance.

    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 full burden. It does not disclose whether the operation is read-only, requires authentication, has rate limits, or what happens on invalid identifiers. For a fetch tool, such details are missing.

    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?

    Three sentences front-load the purpose and key guidance with no extraneous words. Every sentence earns its place.

    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?

    Given that there is an output schema, the description does not need to detail return values. It covers inputs and use case well. However, it could mention that only the first matching entry is returned or error behavior.

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

    Parameters5/5

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

    Schema coverage is 0%, but the description fully compensates by explaining that 'identifier' accepts an INSPIRE record id or arXiv id, and provides concrete examples (1748602, 2301.08096). This adds significant clarity beyond the bare 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 verb 'Fetch', the resource 'official BibTeX entry', and the source 'INSPIRE-HEP'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like arxiv_fetch and inspire_search by focusing on bibliographic entry retrieval.

    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 explicit guidance: 'Always use this for bibliography entries — never write BibTeX by hand.' It tells when to use and when not to, but does not directly compare to siblings like arxiv_fetch.

    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, the description carries full burden. It discloses that the tool lists tables, resources, and flags pyhf likelihoods. It does not mention side effects or permissions, but for a GET-like tool this is acceptable. No contradictions.

    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 action, second adds key detail. No redundant 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?

    Given a single parameter and existing output schema, the description covers the tool's purpose and return structure well. However, it omits mention of error handling or edge cases (e.g., invalid ID).

    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 0%, so the description must compensate. It provides an example (1748602) and explains that the parameter is an INSPIRE record ID, adding meaning beyond the schema's bare string type. Could specify format more precisely.

    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 it fetches a HEPData record by INSPIRE ID, lists data tables and resources, and flags statistical models. It distinguishes from siblings like hepdata_download_likelihood which downloads a specific likelihood.

    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 implicitly conveys usage (fetch metadata for a record), but does not explicitly state when to use it vs alternatives or when not to use it. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned.

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