Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| helloA | Say hello — use this to test that the Salt MCP server is working |
| list-componentsA | List all available Salt Design System components. Returns component names from both core (stable) and lab (experimental) packages. |
| get-component-propsB | Get the props/API definition for a specific Salt component. Returns the TypeScript interface with JSDoc comments. |
| get-component-exampleA | Get Storybook example code for a Salt component. Returns the story source showing how to use the component. |
| search-componentsC | Search Salt components by keyword. Searches component names and directory names. |
| get-salt-docsA | Get Salt Design System documentation including usage guidelines, best practices, accessibility rules, and patterns. Use this to answer questions about how and when to use Salt components, design foundations (density, spacing, color, typography), and UI patterns (forms, navigation, search). |

TDQS
Scored across 6 tools
Every tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no ambiguity: get-component-example retrieves example code, get-component-props provides API definitions, get-salt-docs returns documentation, hello is a test tool, list-components enumerates components, and search-components performs keyword searches. There is no overlap in functionality that could cause misselection.
The naming is mostly consistent with a verb_noun pattern (e.g., get-component-example, list-components, search-components), but the 'hello' tool deviates as a single-word, non-descriptive name. This minor inconsistency slightly reduces predictability, though the other tools follow a clear convention.
With 6 tools, the count is well-scoped for a Salt Design System server, covering key operations like listing, searching, retrieving examples, props, and documentation, plus a test tool. Each tool earns its place without being excessive or insufficient for the domain.
The tool surface is largely complete for accessing Salt Design System resources, covering listing, searching, and retrieving examples, props, and documentation. A minor gap is the lack of tools for interactive operations like modifying or testing components, but core informational workflows are well-covered without dead ends.
