Instructions

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
describe_imageA

Look at an image and return a text interpretation from the Gemini vision model. The calling agent supplies the prompt, so it controls exactly what the model should return (a description, OCR of visible text, a list of objects, structured JSON, etc.). Pass image as a local file path, an http(s) URL, or a data: URL (or an array of these for multiple images). This is how a text-only model can 'see' an image.

list_modelsA

List the Gemini model ids available on the configured OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

Prompts

Interactive templates invoked by user choice

NameDescription

No prompts

Resources

TDQS

A4.4/5.0

Scored across 2 tools

Disambiguation5/5

The two tools have completely distinct purposes: describe_image processes images, while list_models enumerates available models. There is no overlap or ambiguity in their roles.

Naming Consistency5/5

Both tools follow the identical verb_noun naming pattern (describe_image and list_models), creating a clear and predictable convention. This consistency makes the tool set easy to navigate.

Tool Count4/5

With only 2 tools, the server is lean but appropriately scoped for its narrow purpose of explaining images. The core describe_image tool is supported by list_models, giving just enough functionality without bloat.

Completeness5/5

For the stated purpose of image explanation, the server fully covers the domain. describe_image is flexible via custom prompts, supporting descriptions, OCR, object listing, and more, with no obvious gaps for a single-purpose MCP server.
