ArvanCloud MCP Server

arvan_create_dns_record

Create DNS records for your domain on ArvanCloud, supporting A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SRV, and more. Configure type, name, value, TTL, Cloud proxy, and optional filters.

Instructions

Create a DNS record. See module docs for value shapes per type.

Args: domain: Zone the record belongs to. type: Record type (a, aaaa, cname, mx, txt, ns, srv, …). name: Record name/subdomain (@ for the root). value: Type-specific value (see the shapes in this tool's docs). ttl: Time-to-live in seconds. cloud: Whether to proxy the record through ArvanCloud (orange-cloud). upstream_https: Upstream HTTPS mode when cloud is enabled. ip_filter_mode: Optional IP-filter/health-check configuration.

Behavior2/5

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

The description adds minimal behavioral context beyond the annotations. Annotations already indicate a write operation (readOnlyHint=false), and the description's 'Create' confirms that. No additional traits like idempotency, side effects, or requirements are disclosed.

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 concise and well-structured: a one-line purpose, a note about value shapes, then a bulleted args list. Every sentence adds value without redundancy. It is front-loaded with the core action.

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 create tool with 8 parameters and no output schema, the description covers all parameters but lacks return value clues. It also does not address how the tool interacts with sibling specialized tools. Overall, it is nearly complete but missing post-invocation expectations.

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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description provides rich explanations for all 8 parameters, including the complex 'value' parameter type-specific advisory. It explains domain, type (with enum list), name, ttl, cloud, upstream_https, and ip_filter_mode in clear natural language, significantly enhancing the raw schema.

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 'Create a DNS record' with a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like arvan_create_a_record or arvan_create_cname_record, which are redundant specialized versions. The tool's purpose is clear but lacks guidance on when to use this generic version.

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?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention that specialized record creation tools exist or any context about prerequisites or conflicts. An agent would have to infer from the tool name alone.

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