get_current_config

Retrieve the server's active configuration to inspect default settings and use them as a base for local overrides.

Instructions

Returns the current, active configuration of the MCP server. This allows users to view the default config and use it as a template for local overrides.

Tool call template

This tool declares no required parameters. Add optional parameters from the input schema as needed.

TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure, but it only states a generic read operation. It does not mention authorization needs, side effects, or what 'active configuration' entails (e.g., scope, format).

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, both front-loading the core action and its utility. Every sentence is necessary and there is no redundancy or filler.

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?

Without an output schema, the description should explain what the returned configuration contains (e.g., which settings, data structure). It only vaguely refers to 'current, active configuration' and does not provide enough detail for an agent to use the output correctly.

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 tool has zero parameters, and schema coverage is 100%. According to guidelines, baseline is 4 for no params. The description adds no extra param information, which is acceptable as there are none to describe.

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 returns the current active configuration of the MCP server and explains its purpose as a template for overrides. The verb 'returns' and resource 'configuration' are specific, and no sibling tool has an identical focus.

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 like get_environment_config or other config-related tools. There is no explicit when, when-not, or mention of alternatives.

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