Server Quality Checklist

Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.

Latest release: v1.0.0
Disambiguation5/5
Each tool maps to a distinct stage or aspect of the delegation lifecycle: models/config discovery, start, follow-up, status, final result, cancel, and list. The only superficially similar pair (delegate_status vs delegate_result) is clearly separated by monitoring vs collecting final output.
Naming Consistency4/5
Six of seven tools share the clean delegate_ prefix with a readable action, making the lifecycle easy to scan. Minor deviation: delegate_status, delegate_result, and delegate_followup use nouns rather than verbs, and openrouter_models breaks the prefix pattern.
Tool Count5/5
Seven tools is well-scoped for a delegation server: one discovery/config tool plus six lifecycle operations. Each tool covers a necessary step without redundancy or bloat.
Completeness5/5
The delegation workflow is fully covered: inspect models/config, start, monitor, collect, resume, cancel, and list jobs. Deliberately missing config-editing tools are documented as user-controlled via a separate CLI, so there are no dead ends for the stated purpose.

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

Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool terminates 'everything it started' and stops spending credits, which are important behavioral consequences. However, it doesn't mention whether the cancellation is reversible or what happens to already-completed results.
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, front-loaded with the primary action, and includes a key secondary effect (credit spending). No wasted words.
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 the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema, no annotations), the description is fairly complete. It covers the main action and a critical side effect. It could mention that the job must be running, but that's implied by 'running delegated session'.
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 description coverage is 100% for the single parameter 'job_id', which is self-explanatory. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, but since the schema already fully documents the parameter, a baseline 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 clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Terminate a running delegated session and everything it started.' It uses a specific verb ('Terminate') and resource ('running delegated session'), and distinguishes it from siblings like delegate_start and delegate_status by focusing on cancellation.
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 when to use it (when a delegated session is running and needs to be stopped), but does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it. It also doesn't clarify that it's for running sessions only, which could be inferred but not stated.
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?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It transparently mentions key behaviors: shows jobs from the server's lifetime (all historical jobs), orders newest first, groups by conversation, and includes estimated total spend. This goes beyond a generic 'list' by specifying output structure and a calculated metric, providing useful expectations for the agent.
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?
Single, information-dense sentence that covers purpose, ordering, grouping, and an output summary metric. No wasted words; it front-loads the primary function and key behavioral 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?
The tool is a simple list operation with two optional parameters well-described in the schema. The description adds value by specifying sort order, grouping, and the spend estimate, which are not in the schema. It lacks information about pagination or default limits, but the schema covers the limit parameter. Overall, sufficient for the tool's simplicity.
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 descriptions for both `limit` and `state`. The description itself does not add meaning beyond what the schema provides; the mention of filtering by state is implied by the parameter but not elaborated. Since coverage is complete, the baseline is 3.
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's purpose: to show delegated jobs from the server's lifetime, with specific ordering (newest first), grouping (by conversation), and a summary metric (estimated total spend). It uses an action verb ('show') and a resource ('delegated jobs'), and the scope is well-defined, distinguishing it from action-oriented siblings like delegate_start or delegate_cancel.
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 conveys that this is a list operation for delegated jobs, which differentiates it from the action-oriented siblings (start, followup, status, result, cancel). However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool instead of others, such as delegate_status for checking a single job's status, or mention any preconditions.
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 carries the full burden. It discloses the reporting behavior (status, tail, blocking) and a verification use case. However, it doesn't state whether checking status has side effects (e.g., marks job as read), how errors are handled, or the return format. It adds useful context but is not exhaustive.
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, front-loaded with the primary purpose, and contains no redundant or vague wording. It efficiently communicates the tool's function and a key use case.
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 status tool with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description covers the essential aspects: status reporting, activity tail, optional blocking, and verification usage. It doesn't detail the return structure, but the description's 'report whether... plus a tail' gives a sufficient mental model. The lack of an explicit non-destructive note is 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?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description's references to blocking and tail map to wait_seconds and progress_limit, but the schema already describes these parameters clearly. No additional meaning is added 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 reports whether a delegated job is still running, provides a tail of tool calls and partial text, and optionally blocks. This distinguishes it from siblings like delegate_result (fetching final result) and delegate_start/delegate_followup/delegate_cancel/delegate_list. Specific verb+resource with unique features.
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 gives a concrete use case: 'Use the tool-call trace to check that a delegate really did the work it claims.' This implies when to use this tool (status/trace verification) and communicates its value over siblings. It doesn't explicitly exclude alternatives or state when not to use, but provides clear context.
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 are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It explicitly discloses the blocking behavior with wait_seconds and details what is returned (text, token usage, cost, session_id). However, it does not state whether the operation is read-only or what happens if the job is not finished when wait_seconds is not passed, leaving minor behavioral gaps.
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, dense sentences. The first states the core functionality and return fields, and the second provides the critical blocking behavior. No waste, information is front-loaded, and it is easy to scan.
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 two-parameter tool without an output schema, the description covers the essentials: what it returns, the optional blocking behavior, and follow-up information. It does not address failure scenarios or the result when the job is incomplete without wait_seconds, but these are minor gaps given the tool's simplicity.
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 fully documents job_id and wait_seconds. The description does not add any extra meaning to the parameters beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline 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 clearly specifies that the tool returns the final text of a delegated session along with token usage, cost, and session ID. It distinguishes itself from siblings like delegate_status (status checks) and delegate_followup (continuations) by focusing on retrieving the completed output, making its purpose unambiguous.
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 implies when to use it (when you need the final output) and mentions blocking with wait_seconds, but does not explicitly contrast it with alternatives like delegate_status or delegate_followup, nor does it state when not to use it. This is clear context without exclusions.
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?
Without annotations, the description carries the burden. It discloses that resuming replays the whole conversation as input tokens and notes cost implications, and clearly states that a new job_id is returned while session_id stays constant. This is transparent behavioral info beyond the basic function.
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: a few sentences, front-loaded with the main purpose and identification methods. Every sentence adds value (usage guidance, cost note, return behavior). No fluff.
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 tool has 7 params, no required, no output schema, no annotations. The description covers the key behaviors (return values, cost, when to use). It doesn't describe error cases or all parameter nuances, but it handles the most important aspects. Slightly better than average for a delegation tool.
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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by explaining how job_id vs session_id identify the session (any turn or session_id), and advises using prompt_file for long prompts讷. It also implies that wait_seconds and permission_mode are per-turn overrides, though not explicit. Slightly above baseline.
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's purpose: 'Send another message to an existing delegated session, resuming its full conversation history.' It uses a specific verb (send) and resource (delegated session), and differentiates from siblings like delegate_start by focusing on continuation rather than initiation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states when to use it: 'Send another message to an existing delegated session' and 'Only continue conversations the user asked you to start,' which sets a clear usage boundary. It also explains the alternative of starting fresh (and cost trade-offs), and mentions using prompt_file for long prompts, giving practical guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Behavior5/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Although no annotations are provided, the description discloses that it runs in its own process, doesn't touch Anthropic credentials, and prominently warns 'COSTS REAL MONEY' with billing details and token usage. It also notes the async nature (return immediately).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Well-structured with clear sections (purpose, behavior, when-to-use, cost, policy). Though somewhat verbose, each sentence adds value—warnings about cost and usage are important.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Covers async behavior, cost implications, policy, and references sibling tools (delegate_status, delegate_result). Given the complexity of delegation (cost, permissions, background process), this description is complete enough for an agent to act.
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 covers all 12 parameters with descriptions (100% coverage). The description adds minimal extra beyond schema, e.g., 'Pass `prompt_file` for long prompts' which is already implied. Baseline 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?
Clearly states 'Start a headless Claude Code session backed by an OpenRouter model and return immediately with a job_id.' It distinguishes from sibling tools by outlining the delegation flow (status, result, followup).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly specifies when to use: 'ON EXPLICIT REQUEST ONLY' with concrete examples. Also states 'If the user has not asked for delegation, do the work yourself and do not offer this tool unprompted.' Provides clear alternatives and cost warnings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Behavior5/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden and does so well. It discloses that results are 'filtered to tool-capable ones and truncated,' that filtering is by default active (tools_only), the default model value, and that these settings are user-controlled with no tool to change them, including a 'do not edit config files' safety instruction.
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 compact paragraphs, each earning its place: purpose/result orientation, usage guidance with alternatives, and the default model. Front-loaded with the core listing purpose, with no fluff or repetition of schema content.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite having no output schema, the description explicitly states what the response contains (prices, context windows, delegation policy, credit balance, environment). It also covers filtering/truncation behavior, parameter hints, defaults, and the limitation that settings cannot be changed via this tool. This is complete for a listing tool.
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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value beyond the schema by explaining parameter intent: 'pass `filter` to search by name and `limit` to see more,' and clarifies the default filtering behavior relevant to tools_only. free_only is not mentioned in the description, but the schema already documents it fully.
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?
Description opens with a specific verb+resource: 'List OpenRouter models available for delegation with their prices and context windows, plus the current delegation policy, credit balance, and the environment a delegated session receives.' It goes beyond a simple name by defining scope (delegation) and the exact data returned. It also clearly distinguishes itself from the sibling delegate_* tools as a read-only listing tool.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicit usage guidance is provided: 'Use this to pick a `model`, to check the balance before delegating, or to report the configuration when the user asks about it.' It also gives when-not-to-use and an alternative action: if the user wants config changes, 'tell them to run `openrouter-mcp-config` in a terminal and restart the session. Do not edit the config files yourself.'
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
