Tempo MCP Server

Server Quality Checklist

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

Latest release: v1.7.1
Disambiguation2/5
Four of seven tools (bulkCreateWorklogs, createWorklog, deleteWorklog, editWorklog) lack descriptions, making it hard for an agent to distinguish between them. The three described analytical tools are well-differentiated, but the unknown mutation tools create significant ambiguity.
Naming Consistency2/5
Naming is inconsistent: uses both 'get' and 'retrieve' prefixes, and mixes singular 'Worklog' with plural 'Worklogs' (e.g., createWorklog vs bulkCreateWorklogs). This lack of pattern reduces predictability.
Tool Count4/5
With 7 tools, the server covers core CRUD and analytical operations for worklog management. The count is appropriate for the scope, though the missing descriptions for half the tools detract from its usability.
Completeness3/5
Basic CRUD (create single/bulk, delete, edit) and analytics (retrieve, analytics, missing days) are present, suggesting reasonable coverage. However, the lack of descriptions makes it unclear if there are gaps like a 'get by ID' or bulk delete.
Average 2.4/5 across 7 of 7 tools scored. Lowest: 1/5.

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

Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Tool has no description.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness1/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Tool has no description.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Tool has no description.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Tool has no description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose1/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Tool has no description.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Tool has no description.
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 provides key behavioral details: it returns hours, count, percentage, sorted descending; explains grouping options; and notes the dependency on Tempo accounts for 'account' grouping. It mentions the 'View Worklogs' permission for accessing others' data, which adds transparency.
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?
The description is concise yet informative, with each sentence adding value. It is well-structured: purpose, grouping options, additional parameters with example, and a caveat. No unnecessary 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 absence of an output schema, the description explains the return values (hours, count, percentage) and grouping behavior. It covers the main use cases and potential pitfalls (e.g., account grouping). Minor gap: does not describe the exact format of returned data, but it's sufficient for an aggregation 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 description coverage is 50% (3 of 6 parameters have descriptions). The description adds significant meaning: it elaborates on groupBy options (including default and ISO 8601 for week), clarifies the use of users/program/team, and provides a critical note about the 'account' grouping and the 'No account' bucket.
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 aggregates worklogs over a date range and returns specific metrics (hours, count, percentage) grouped and sorted. It distinguishes itself from sibling CRUD and retrieval tools by focusing on analytics.
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 explains when to use the tool (to get aggregated worklog data) and how to use additional parameters (users, program, team) to analyze others' worklogs, including the required permission. It does not explicitly state when not to use it, but the context is clear.
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?
Discloses default behavior, filter combination as union, and permission constraints leading to silent filtering. With no annotations, the description carries full burden and addresses key behavioral aspects, though pagination or error behavior is not mentioned.
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?
Single paragraph is efficient and front-loaded with the main action. Could be slightly more structured but no redundant information.
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?
Covers essential aspects: purpose, defaults, filters, permissions, and behavioral quirks. Lacks output format description but with no output schema it is acceptable.
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?
Adds meaning beyond schema by explaining the default behavior and clarifying that 'users' can be multiple identifier types and filters combine as union. Schema coverage is 60%, and the description compensates well for the undocumented parameters.
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 the tool retrieves Tempo worklogs within a date range. Defaults to own worklogs, with optional filters for others. Distinguishes from sibling tools which are for creation, deletion, or editing.
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?
Provides explicit context for default vs filtered retrieval and permission requirements. Implicitly differentiates from mutation siblings, but does not explicitly state when not to use or compare to other retrieval tools like getMissingWorklogDays.
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?
No annotations so description carries full burden; covers schedule usage, holiday skipping, return fields, required API scopes, and permission requirements.
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?
Four sentences with clear purpose first; could be tighter but all info 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?
Given no output schema and moderate complexity, description covers return values, scopes, and permission needs adequately.
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?
Adds meaning for users/program/team options beyond schema descriptions; does not explain minHoursPerDay, but 50% schema coverage is complemented well.
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 it finds working days with under-logged time compared to schedule, distinct from CRUD siblings.
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?
Describes when to use for self vs others, required permissions, and optional filters. Lacks explicit when-not-to-use but context covers typical use.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
