arcep-eligibility-mcp-server

get_fixed_line_eligibilities

Get fixed-line eligibility for a French address by providing street and town. Chains town, address, and building lookups to return ARCEP results.

Instructions

Get fixed-line eligibilities for an address from the ARCEP API. Chains town lookup, address lookup, building lookup, and eligibility fetch.

A4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It transparently reveals that the operation chains multiple steps—town lookup, address lookup, building lookup, and eligibility fetch—which signals multiple internal API calls and potentially slower execution. It remains a read-style operation ('Get'), so no hidden mutation is implied.

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 tight sentences with no filler. The main action is front-loaded, and the pipeline detail is a useful, efficient expansion rather than repetition.

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 read tool, the description covers what the tool does, the data source, and the internal flow. It does not describe the return format, error behavior, or rate limits, but those are partially inferable from the tool name and the absence of an output schema. The description is broadly sufficient for an agent to select and invoke the 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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents townName and streetAddress with examples. The description adds context by explaining these feed into a lookup chain, but it does not provide additional parameter constraints, formats, or validation rules beyond what the schema states.

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 ('Get'), resource ('fixed-line eligibilities'), and source ('ARCEP API'), making the tool's function immediately clear. The 'fixed-line' qualifier distinguishes it from the sibling get_mobile_eligibilities even without an explicit comparison.

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 context in which to use this tool is implied by 'fixed-line eligibilities' and the address-focused parameters, but there is no explicit guidance about when to use this versus get_mobile_eligibilities. No alternative tool is named in the description, so the agent must infer the boundary from the names alone.

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