Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
v1.0.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description fails to disclose any behavioral traits, side effects, or requirements (e.g., prerequisites or impacts on the importation process). The tool's behavior is entirely opaque.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise but at the cost of informativeness. It consists of only two words, which is under-specification rather than efficient communication. It fails to front-load useful information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's name and sibling context, a minimal description should explain what 'reattend column' means (e.g., marking a column for re-attention during import). The description provides no such context, making it inadequate even for a tool with no parameters and no output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has zero parameters, so the description does not need to add parameter semantics. However, the description 'Reattend Column' adds minimal meaning beyond the schema; it hints at a column operation but lacks context. With zero parameters, baseline is 4, but the severe under-specification reduces the score.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Reattend Column' is a tautology of the tool name 'Importation_ReattendColumn'. It does not specify what 'reattend' means in the importation context, nor does it distinguish the tool from siblings like Importation_IgnoreColumn or Importation_MapCatalogColumn.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No usage guidelines are provided. There is no indication of when to use this tool versus alternatives such as Importation_ConfigureCatalogColumn or Importation_UnmapCatalogColumn.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
