Server Quality Checklist

83%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.1

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: agent_details retrieves details for a specific agent, find_agent searches by capability, and top_agents lists popular agents. No overlap.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    Tool names are all snake_case and descriptive, but follow different patterns: noun_detail, verb_noun, adjective_noun. Minor inconsistency but still clear.

    Tool Count5/5

    Three tools is appropriate for a registry lookup server. It covers the essential operations without being excessive or sparse.

    Completeness4/5

    Covers key read operations: search, detail, and top listing. Missing maybe a 'list all agents' with pagination, but the current set is sufficient for basic discovery.

  • Average 3.9/5 across 3 of 3 tools scored.

How to sync the server with GitHub?

Servers are automatically synced at least once per day, but you can also sync manually at any time to instantly update the server profile.

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?

    With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It indicates a read operation without side effects, but lacks details on return format, default count, or pagination, making the behavior partially transparent.

    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 with essential information front-loaded. Every sentence serves a purpose with no redundancy.

    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 explains output ranking but omits details like default limit, whether results are cached, and exact output fields. Given no output schema, more context is needed for full completeness.

    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%, meaning the description adds no meaning to the single optional parameter 'limit'. The description does not mention the parameter or its effect on results, failing to compensate for the schema gap.

    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 ('List'), the resource ('top open-source AI agents'), and the ranking criteria ('by reputation and real GitHub stars'). It effectively distinguishes from sibling tools like 'agent_details' and 'find_agent'.

    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 a clear context for use ('to see what's popular in the agent ecosystem') but does not explicitly state when not to use or contrast with alternatives, lacking explicit exclusion guidance.

    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 are provided, so the description must carry transparency. It states 'full details' but does not specify what fields are returned, nor does it mention any side effects, permissions, or constraints beyond the required agent_id. The example helps slightly but lacks comprehensive 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?

    The description is a single, well-structured sentence that front-loads the purpose and includes an example. Every word is necessary; no redundancy.

    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 (1 param, no output schema, no annotations), the description lacks details on the output structure. An agent cannot determine what 'full details' entails without additional context. While sibling tools exist, the description does not bridge the gap.

    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?

    The schema describes the single parameter with 'The agent's id / GitHub slug'. The description adds a concrete example ('e.g. 'elizaOS/eliza''), providing meaningful context 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 retrieves 'full details for one agent' by agent_id, with a concrete example. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'find_agent' (likely search) and 'top_agents' (likely listing).

    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 getting details of a known agent by ID, but it does not explicitly provide when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to sibling tools. No alternatives or exclusions are mentioned.

    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?

    No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. Lists return fields (repo/endpoint, GitHub stars, activity, tags) and hints at read-only nature. Does not disclose pagination or ordering behavior, but is generally transparent.

    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 concise sentences front-loaded with purpose. No wasted words; every sentence adds value.

    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 no output schema, description adequately explains return values. Does not mention pagination, sorting, or error conditions, but is complete enough for a search tool with minimal parameters.

    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 coverage is 50% (query described, limit not). Description adds meaning to query ('by capability or task') but does not explain limit beyond the schema. Baseline 3 as schema already covers half; description does not fully compensate for missing limit documentation.

    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?

    States verb 'Search', resource 'Beacon registry for open-source AI agents', and scope 'by capability or task' with examples. Clearly distinguishes from sibling tools like agent_details (details) and top_agents (listing).

    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?

    Provides clear context on when to use (searching for agents by task/ability). Lacks explicit exclusion criteria or when to prefer alternatives, but examples and sibling names imply usage boundaries.

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