Bruno MCP

Bruno MCP 是一个本地 Model Context Protocol 服务器,用于发现、检查和执行 Bruno API 集合。它为 MCP 客户端提供对 Bruno 集合的语义接口,同时将请求执行、身份验证、脚本、断言和环境解析委托给 Bruno CLI。

发现和检查工具不会修改集合文件。请求执行被委托给 Bruno,并且可以运行带有副作用的集合脚本。服务器通过标准输入和标准输出(stdio)与 MCP 主机通信。

非官方项目: Bruno MCP 是一个独立的非官方 MCP 服务器。本项目与 Bruno 或其创建者没有任何关联、认可、赞助或其他联系。Bruno 及相关名称、徽标和标志均为其各自所有者的商标。提及 Bruno 仅用于描述与 Bruno 软件的兼容性。

Requirements

  • Node.js 22 或更高版本

  • npm

  • Bruno CLI >= 4.0.0 && < 5.0.0

Bruno MCP 在启动时校验 bru --version。支持稳定的 Bruno CLI 4.x 版本;预发布版本和其他主版本将被拒绝。

Related MCP server: Bruno MCP Server

OpenCollection support

Bruno MCP 支持由 opencollection.yml 文件标识的 Bruno v4 OpenCollection 集合。它发现由 OpenCollection YAML 文件表示的请求和环境。

不支持旧版 .bru 集合。请求发现会忽略 .bru 文件,而不是解析或转换它们。

Installation

通过 npm 全局安装 Bruno MCP:

npm install --global @gpact/bruno-mcp

如果尚未安装受支持的 Bruno CLI,请单独安装:

npm install --global @usebruno/cli@^4.0.0

确认两个入口点均可解析:

command -v bruno-mcp
bru --version

bruno-mcp 没有命令行选项,因此调用它会启动 stdio 服务器,而不是打印帮助信息。MCP 主机通常会为您启动它。

若要从仓库检出进行安装:

npm ci
npm run build
npm link

MCP host configuration

MCP stdio 传输 定义了主机如何启动服务器子进程并通过 stdin 和 stdout 交换消息。它没有定义通用的主机配置文件。

将您的主机配置为以本地 stdio 服务器方式运行 bruno-mcp 入口点,并在子进程环境中传递 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT。请使用绝对根路径,因为并非所有主机都使用相同的工作目录。

Hosts using mcpServers

Claude Desktop 和 Claude Code 项目配置使用 mcpServers 对象:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bruno": {
      "command": "bruno-mcp",
      "env": {
        "BRUNO_MCP_ROOT": "/home/user/bruno"
      }
    }
  }
}

有关配置位置和作用域选项,请参阅官方 本地服务器指南 和 Claude Code MCP 文档。

Visual Studio Code

VS Code 在其 mcp.json 配置中使用 servers 对象:

{
  "servers": {
    "bruno": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "bruno-mcp",
      "env": {
        "BRUNO_MCP_ROOT": "/home/user/bruno"
      }
    }
  }
}

有关工作区和用户配置位置,请参阅 VS Code MCP 配置参考。

OpenCode

OpenCode 在 mcp 下使用本地 MCP 条目,将命令表示为数组,并将环境字段命名为 environment:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "bruno": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": ["bruno-mcp"],
      "environment": {
        "BRUNO_MCP_ROOT": "/home/user/bruno"
      }
    }
  }
}

有关配置优先级和其他本地服务器选项,请参阅 OpenCode MCP 服务器文档。

其他主机可能使用其他配置结构或命令行设置流程。在任何情况下,所需的概念都是相同的:本地 stdio 传输、bruno-mcp 命令以及下面描述的环境变量。如果 GUI 主机无法在其 PATH 中找到 bruno-mcp 或 bru,请使用 command -v bruno-mcp 报告的绝对路径作为服务器命令,并将 BRUNO_MCP_BRU 设置为 Bruno CLI 的绝对路径。

您也可以直接启动服务器。它将等待 stdin 上的 MCP 消息,并将协议消息写入 stdout:

BRUNO_MCP_ROOT=/home/user/bruno bruno-mcp

bruno-mcp

MCP tools

集合标识符是相对于 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT 的路径。请求和环境路径相对于其所属集合。返回的 URL 和 YAML 变量不会被插值。

bruno_list_collections

列出配置的工作区中可用的 Bruno OpenCollection 集合。它不接受任何参数,返回集合标识符、名称和 OpenCollection 版本。

bruno_list_requests

列出并搜索一个 Bruno OpenCollection 集合中的请求。它返回请求路径、名称、类型,以及可用的 HTTP 方法和 URL。

必需输入:

  • collection:集合标识符

可选过滤器:

  • query:不区分大小写的子字符串,匹配名称、路径和 URL

  • method:不区分大小写的精确 HTTP 方法

  • type:不区分大小写的精确请求类型

bruno_search_requests

在一次调用中搜索所有集合中的请求。每个结果都包含其集合标识符。

  • query:非空、不区分大小写的子字符串,匹配名称、路径和 URL

可选的 method 和 type 过滤器使用不区分大小写的精确匹配。

bruno_get_request

读取 Bruno OpenCollection 请求并返回规范化元数据及其解析后的 YAML 文档。

必需输入:

  • collection:集合标识符

  • request:相对于集合的请求路径

将 includeSource 设置为 true 还可返回原始 YAML 源码。默认值为 false。解析后的文档和源码在返回时不会对秘密进行脱敏,因此请使用列表或搜索工具生成的请求路径,并且不要在请求 YAML 中直接嵌入凭据。

bruno_list_environments

列出集合可用的环境,而不暴露变量值。每个结果都包含环境名称、相对路径、变量数量和秘密数量。

必需输入:

  • collection:集合标识符

collection

必需

集合标识符。

targets

[]

请求或文件夹路径。空数组将运行整个集合。

environment

无

Bruno 环境名称。

variables

无

作为 Bruno 环境变量传递的非秘密字符串覆盖值。

bail

false

在第一个失败的请求、测试或断言之后停止。

testsOnly

false

仅运行包含测试或启用断言的请求。

delayMs

无

请求之间的非负延迟(毫秒)。

sandbox

safe

Bruno 沙箱模式:safe 或 developer。

insecure

false

responseBodyMode

onFailure

返回的响应体:none、onFailure 或 full。

maxResponseBodyBytes

262144

每个包含的响应体的最大 UTF-8 或序列化大小。超大的响应体将被大小元数据替换。

Secret handling

不要通过 variables 传递凭据或其他秘密。MCP 工具参数可能对模型和主机可见,覆盖值也会作为参数传递给 Bruno 进程。请通过 Bruno 正常的环境或进程环境机制提供秘密。

环境检查会遵循 secret: true,但此标记并不是通用的文件访问边界。bruno_get_request 返回文件时不进行脱敏,并且目前接受集合内任何现有文件,而不仅仅是请求发现找到的路径。因此,提供环境文件路径的授权调用者可能会收到其原始内容。请将 MCP 访问限制在受信任的主机和用户范围内,窄化 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT 的作用域,并避免在任何 MCP 调用者可读取的地方存放明文的生产环境秘密。

Sandbox and TLS policies

bruno_run 默认使用 Bruno 的安全沙箱。

开发沙箱执行需要同时满足以下两个明确选择:

  1. 服务器操作员设置 BRUNO_MCP_ALLOW_DEVELOPER_SANDBOX=true。

  2. 工具调用者为本次运行将 sandbox 设置为 developer。

如果没有服务器权限,开发者模式请求会失败并返回 DEVELOPER_SANDBOX_DISABLED。开发者模式为 Bruno 脚本提供更强的能力,因此请仅对受信任的集合启用它。

路径约束控制提供给 Bruno MCP 的路径;它不会对 Bruno 脚本内部的代码进行沙箱隔离。Bruno 脚本可以更新集合或环境状态,开发者模式脚本可以使用原生 Node.js 能力访问 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT 之外的路径或启动其他进程。

默认启用正常的 TLS 证书验证。要禁用该验证,还需要同时具备服务器权限(BRUNO_MCP_ALLOW_INSECURE=true)和单次运行中的 insecure: true。否则请求会失败并返回 INSECURE_DISABLED。不安全模式会削弱传输安全性,应仅限于受控的开发环境。

安全模型

  • 根目录约束: 提供给 Bruno MCP 的集合、请求、环境和执行路径都会对照规范化文件系统边界进行检查。超出 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT 或所选集合的目录遍历和符号链接逃逸将被拒绝。这不限制开发者模式脚本代码。

  • 无 Shell 执行: Bruno MCP 在禁用 Shell 执行的情况下,将固定操作和单独参数直接传递给所配置的 Bruno 可执行文件。它不提供通用 Shell 或 Bruno CLI 命令工具,但开发者模式下的 Bruno 脚本可以自行启动进程。

  • 只读检查: 发现和检查不会有意创建、更新或删除集合文件。bruno_run 委托给 Bruno CLI,并且可以执行具有副作用(包括持久化变量更改)的脚本。

  • 定向脱敏: 环境检查会对显式标记为 secret: true 的环境值进行脱敏。执行报告会递归地对常见敏感标头(包括 authorization、cookies 和 API key 标头)进行脱敏。原始文件和请求读取不会被脱敏。

  • 仅协议 stdout: stdout 保留给 MCP 协议流量使用。日志和启动诊断信息写入 stderr。

  • 有界报告: 过大的 Bruno 报告会被拒绝,所包含的响应正文有单独的逐正文限制。

脱敏是纵深防御,而非通用的机密检测。原始文件、请求 YAML、请求源、URL、响应正文和 Bruno 诊断信息可能包含未被识别为机密的数值。请在实际可行的范围内尽可能窄地配置 BRUNO_MCP_ROOT,避免在集合文件中嵌入凭据,并在启用请求执行时使用受信任的集合和 MCP 调用方。

Available Tools

11 tools
bruno_create_environmentCreate Bruno environmentA

Create a new Bruno environment file. Secret values must be omitted or [REDACTED].

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesEnvironment name or path (e.g. Local or environments/Local.yml).
variablesNoInitial list of environment variables.
collectionYesCollection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. It does add a meaningful constraint: 'Secret values must be omitted or [REDACTED].' However, it does not disclose behavior around overwriting existing files, permission requirements, or what happens after creation. This is a mutation tool, so more detail would be valuable.

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 short sentences: one states the primary action, the other communicates the one critical rule. There is no filler or repetition of schema details. The structure is appropriately concise and front-loaded.

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 schema covers all parameters and the description highlights the key secret-handling rule, so an agent can likely call the tool correctly. However, there is no output schema and the description does not mention what the tool returns, whether it will overwrite an existing environment at the same path, or any side effects. For a file-creating mutation tool, these are notable gaps.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema fully documents all three parameters. The description adds the security rule about secrets, but this mostly restates what the schema already specifies via the '[REDACTED]' const and corresponding descriptions. Thus the description provides minimal added value 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 action: 'Create a new Bruno environment file.' This is specific and unambiguous, naming both the verb and the resource. It distinguishes this tool from siblings like bruno_update_environment and bruno_get_environment simply by emphasizing 'new'.

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 establishes when to use the tool: when creating a new environment, not updating or listing existing ones. It does not explicitly name alternatives, but the 'new' qualifier makes the intended use clear enough. It stops short of explaining what not to use it for, so it lacks explicit exclusion guidance.

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

bruno_create_requestCreate Bruno requestA

Create a Bruno HTTP request YAML file. Missing parent folders are created and existing files are not overwritten.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
appNoApp extension settings.

descriptionNoRequest description.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the behavioral burden. It does disclose two non-obvious file behaviors: missing parent folders are auto-created and existing files are not overwritten. But it omits what happens when a file already exists (error vs no-op), what the successful response contains, and any other side effects beyond file creation.

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 one front-loaded sentence that conveys the essential action plus two important edge-case behaviors with no filler. Every clause earns its place.

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?

For a 17-parameter mutation tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description is not fully complete: it lacks success/error signaling, what happens on an existing-file conflict, and explicit routing to bruno_update_request. The schema compensates for parameter details, and the description covers the most important file-system behaviors, so it is adequate but has clear gaps.

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 high at 88%, so the schema already documents most parameters and the baseline is 3. The description adds extra meaning by clarifying request-path behavior: nested parent folders are automatically created and an existing target file is not overwritten, which is not stated in the schema's parameter 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 names a concrete action ('Create') and a concrete resource ('Bruno HTTP request YAML file'), so an agent immediately knows what the tool does. The phrase 'existing files are not overwritten' also distinguishes it from bruno_update_request, which is the main sibling it could be confused with.

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 'create' verb and the warning that existing files are not overwritten imply this tool is for new request files, giving some usage context. However, it never explicitly says to use bruno_update_request when the target already exists, nor does it state any other when-to-use/when-not-to-use guidance relative to sibling tools.

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

bruno_get_environmentGet Bruno environmentB

Inspect a Bruno environment. Variables marked as secrets are always redacted.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
collectionYesCollection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).
environmentYesEnvironment name or path (e.g. Local or environments/Local.yml).

TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The description discloses one important behavior: secret variables are always redacted in the output. However, it does not explicitly state that the operation is read-only, nor does it mention potential errors or permission requirements. Since no annotations are provided, the description carries the burden of behavior disclosure, but it only partially fulfills this.

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 sentence that leads with the core purpose and then adds a crucial detail about secret redaction. It is concise, free of filler, and well-structured; every word contributes to the tool's understanding.

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 get operation with two well-documented parameters, the description provides sufficient context: it names the action, the resource, and a key output behavior (redaction). It does not explicitly state the return format, but 'inspect' implies retrieving the environment's details, and the absence of an output schema makes this a minor gap.

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 input schema provides full descriptions for both parameters (collection and environment), so the baseline is 3. The description adds no additional parameter-level semantics beyond what the schema already states, making this a neutral score.

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 the action ('Inspect') and the resource ('a Bruno environment'), which distinguishes it from create/update/delete operations. It does not explicitly contrast with bruno_list_environments, but 'inspect' implies fetching details of a specific environment, making the purpose reasonably clear.

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 does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention that this is for retrieving a single environment's details as opposed to listing environments or running requests, leaving the selection decision to the agent's interpretation.

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

bruno_get_requestGet Bruno requestB

Read a Bruno request. Use responseMode=revision for revision check, or full for parsed content.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
requestYesRequest path relative to collection root (e.g. Users/Create.yml).
collectionYesCollection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).
responseModeNoDetail level: "full" for document and metadata, or "revision" for revision check only.
includeSourceNoInclude raw YAML source in full mode.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It does convey that the operation is a read and that 'full' returns parsed content while 'revision' performs a revision check, which gives some behavioral insight. However, it does not describe the exact response shape, error behavior, or explicitly confirm that no side effects occur.

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 short sentences with the core operation front-loaded and mode guidance immediately following. Every phrase earns its place, 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.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The schema covers parameter semantics well, but with no annotations and no output schema, the description should more clearly explain return behavior and how this tool relates to sibling tools. It sketches the difference between revision and full modes but leaves the exact response and tool-selection context to inference. This is adequate but has clear gaps.

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?

All four parameters already have descriptive comments in the input schema, so the baseline is 3. The description's mode sentence mostly restates the responseMode schema, though 'parsed content' adds a small nuance. It adds no meaningful detail for collection, request, or includeSource beyond the 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 the operation: 'Read a Bruno request.' The mention of responseMode further clarifies that the tool supports both full content retrieval and revision checks, which is specific and useful. It is distinguishable from create/update/run siblings, though it does not explicitly contrast with list/search tools.

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 guidance for choosing between responseMode values, but it says nothing about when to use this tool instead of bruno_list_requests, bruno_search_requests, or bruno_run. No alternatives or exclusion conditions are mentioned, so an agent must infer the tool's appropriate context from its name alone.

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

bruno_list_collectionsList Bruno collectionsB

List Bruno collections available in the workspace.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

No parameters

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral disclosure burden. It only restates the listing action and does not mention read-only behavior, return format, ordering, pagination, or potential side effects.

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?

A single, front-loaded sentence that states the essential purpose with no filler or repetition. It is appropriately sized for such a simple tool.

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 zero-parameter listing tool, the description is functionally sufficient: the agent knows what the tool does and that it operates on workspace collections. The only minor gap is the lack of explicit return-shape details, but no output schema exists and the tool is simple enough to infer a list of collections.

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, so there is no parameter semantics burden. The description does not need to explain inputs, and the empty input schema is trivially complete.

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 states a specific action ('List') and resource ('Bruno collections') with a clear workspace scope. It is unambiguous, though it does not explicitly contrast with sibling listing tools such as bruno_list_requests or bruno_list_environments.

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?

There is no guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives. The agent must infer from the resource name that this is for collections, with no explicit exclusions or context for choosing among the sibling list tools.

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

bruno_list_environmentsList Bruno environmentsA

List environments available to a Bruno collection without exposing variable values.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
collectionYesCollection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It explicitly promises that variable values are not exposed, which is a meaningful safety/security behavior. It does not describe error handling or return format, but for a simple listing operation this is a solid level of transparency.

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 sentence with no filler. It front-loads the core purpose ('List environments...') and immediately adds the key differentiator ('without exposing variable values'). Every word 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?

For a low-complexity tool with one required parameter and no output schema, the description is largely sufficient. It covers purpose, scope, and the security-relevant behavior. It could be more complete by stating the return shape more explicitly, but the core selection and invocation needs are met.

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 100% coverage with a clear parameter description: 'Collection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).' The tool description adds no parameter details itself, but the schema already provides sufficient meaning, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 states a specific verb and resource ('List environments') and adds the scope 'available to a Bruno collection'. It also includes a distinctive qualifier, 'without exposing variable values', which differentiates it from a tool like bruno_get_environment that would return variable values.

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 clearly scopes the tool to listing environments for a collection and points to bruno_list_collections as the source of the collection path. It does not explicitly name alternatives or say when not to use it, but the 'without exposing variable values' phrasing gives helpful context for choosing between this and a more detailed environment tool.

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

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of explaining behavior. It does disclose that the tool returns request paths, names, types, and HTTP metadata, but it does not mention error behavior, pagination, or whether the operation is strictly read-only. The read-only nature is implied by 'list and search' but not explicit.

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 compact and front-loaded: it states the core action and return contents in two short sentences with no filler. Every phrase contributes meaningful information.

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 main inputs and return fields, but with no output schema and no annotations, it is only minimally complete. The lack of any distinction from bruno_search_requests is a notable gap for an agent deciding which tool to invoke.

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?

Input schema coverage is 100%, so all parameters already have descriptions. The tool description adds no extra parameter-level semantics beyond confirming the collection context, which the schema already provides. A baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 the operation: listing and searching requests in a Bruno collection, and it lists what is returned. However, it does not differentiate itself from the sibling tool bruno_search_requests, whose name suggests overlapping search functionality.

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?

No guidance is given about when to use this tool instead of bruno_search_requests or bruno_get_request. The description implies it is for exploring requests but never states exclusions or alternative selection criteria, leaving the agent to guess.

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

bruno_runRun Bruno requestsA

Execute requests, folders, or an entire Bruno collection using Bruno CLI v4. Returns structured execution results. Do not pass credentials or other secrets through variables. MCP tool arguments may be visible to the model and host.

environmentNoBruno environment name to use for this run.
responseBodyModeNoWhen to return response bodies: none, onFailure, or full.onFailure
maxResponseBodyBytesNoMaximum bytes for each returned response body.

TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral disclosure burden. It does provide useful warnings about not passing secrets and MCP argument visibility, and it mentions structured results. However, it does not disclose that executing requests may perform live network calls, cause side effects, or take a long time, which are significant behavioral traits for an execution tool.

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 three concise sentences that front-load the core action, then state the return type, then add a critical security warning. There is no filler or redundant wording, and every sentence earns its place.

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?

Despite having 11 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description stays very brief. It does not explain the structure of the execution results, warn about side effects, or provide guidance on selecting targets or interpreting failures. For such a complex, potentially side-effectful tool, the description is insufficiently complete on its own.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the parameters are already well-documented in the schema. The description adds a security warning about variables, reinforcing but not extending the schema's note that variables are non-secret overrides. It provides no additional semantic value for the other ten parameters, so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 uses the specific verb 'Execute' and clearly identifies the resource: 'requests, folders, or an entire Bruno collection' via 'Bruno CLI v4'. It also states the result type ('structured execution results'), making the tool's purpose unambiguous and easily distinguishable from the listing/getting/creating siblings.

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 this tool is for running Bruno requests rather than managing them, but it does not explicitly state when to choose it over alternatives or when not to use it. There is no mention of sibling tools like bruno_list_collections or bruno_get_request, leaving usage context to inference. It is adequate but not explicit.

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

bruno_search_requestsSearch Bruno requestsB

Search requests across all collections in the workspace. Returns matching requests with collection id.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoFilter by request type (e.g. http or graphql).
queryYesCase-insensitive substring filter for request name, path, and URL.
methodNoFilter by HTTP method (e.g. GET or POST).

TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of disclosing side effects and behavior. It mentions it returns matching requests, implying a read-only operation, but does not explicitly state that it does not modify data or that it is safe to call. The transparency is moderate but not thorough.

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, direct, and free of unnecessary detail. It efficiently conveys the tool's purpose and a key aspect of the output, with no fluff or redundancy.

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?

The description provides the essential information needed to invoke the tool: that it searches across all collections and returns matching requests with collection id. Even though there is no output schema, the mention of the return content satisfies basic completeness. It lacks details on pagination or filtering specifics, but these are minor for a search tool.

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 already provides descriptions for all three parameters: query, type, and method. The tool description does not add any extra context about how these parameters interact or affect the search, so the value added beyond the schema is minimal. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 the tool searches for requests across all collections, using the specific verb 'search' and resource 'requests'. It also mentions it returns matching requests with collection id, which distinguishes it from simply listing requests. However, it does not explicitly contrast with the sibling tool bruno_list_requests, so it stops short of a perfect 5.

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 says what the tool does but does not explicitly state when to use it over alternatives (e.g., bruno_list_requests or bruno_get_request). There is no guidance about using search when a filter is needed versus listing when a full enumeration is required, leaving the agent to infer usage.

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

bruno_update_environmentUpdate Bruno environmentB

Update an existing Bruno environment file. Existing secrets must be preserved with secret: true.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesEnvironment name or path (e.g. Local or environments/Local.yml).
variablesYesReplacement list of variables. Existing secrets must keep secret: true.
collectionYesCollection path relative to workspace root (as returned by bruno_list_collections).

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description must carry the full behavioral disclosure burden. It does disclose one important constraint (preserving secrets with secret: true), but it omits that variables form a replacement list, whether unspecified variables are removed, and what the operation returns. This is a significant gap for a mutating tool.

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 short sentences with no redundancy. The primary purpose is stated first, and the critical secret-preservation constraint is added immediately without unnecessary detail.

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?

For a mutating tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is too thin. It does not explain the replacement semantics, the effect on omitted variables, or the expected return value. The secret warning is helpful but leaves important operational context uncovered.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description's secret-preservation note adds emphasis but largely duplicates the schema's 'Existing secrets must keep secret: true.' Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 the action ('Update') and the resource ('an existing Bruno environment file'), which distinguishes it from environment creation tools. It does not explicitly name sibling alternatives, so it stops short of full differentiation.

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?

'Existing' implies this tool is for modifying an already-created environment rather than creating one, providing weak usage context. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over bruno_create_environment, bruno_get_environment, or other siblings.

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

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It does reveal the partial-update nature and the preflight bypass behavior. However, it does not state side effects like persistence, what happens on a revision mismatch, or what the response contains, so it is adequate but not comprehensive.

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 tight sentences with no filler: the core patch behavior is front-loaded, and the operational revision tip follows immediately. The description avoids repeating parameter-level schema details.

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 an 18-parameter mutation tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description plus the rich schema provides enough to select and invoke the tool correctly: patch an existing request, preserve untouched content, and optionally bypass preflight. Missing details like return shape and conflict behavior are minor but would make it more complete.

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 already documents most parameter meanings in detail. The description adds the cross-cutting patch semantics that omitted content is preserved, which is essential for constructing correct patches. The expectedRevision wildcard tip mostly reinforces existing schema text, so this is above baseline but not exceptional.

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?

Uses a specific verb ('Patch'), a clear resource ('existing Bruno HTTP request'), and the critical scope 'preserving untouched content'. This unmistakably distinguishes it from bruno_create_request and from read/run siblings without needing the schema.

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 usage is implied: this is for modifying an existing request, not creating one. However, it never explicitly names alternatives such as bruno_create_request or advises calling bruno_get_request first to fetch a revision. The expectedRevision='*' tip is a useful operational detail but not a full when-to-use vs. when-not-to-use guideline.

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

A3.7/5.0

Scored across 11 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools target distinct resources and actions clearly. The main ambiguity is between bruno_list_requests, which can also search within a collection, and bruno_search_requests, which searches across all collections.

Naming Consistency4/5

The bruno_ prefix with verb_noun naming is highly consistent across nearly all tools. bruno_run is a minor deviation because it lacks a noun object, but it is still understandable given it runs requests, folders, or collections.

Tool Count5/5

Eleven tools is well-scoped for a Bruno API client server covering collections, requests, environments, and execution. Each tool has a clear role in the overall workflow.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers listing, getting, creating, updating, searching, and running requests, plus environment management. The notable gap is the absence of delete operations for requests, environments, or collections.
