Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v2.0.0

  • Disambiguation3/5

    Most tools have distinct purposes, but add_comment and update_ticket both allow adding comments, creating ambiguity. The other tools are clearly separated.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (e.g., create_ticket, list_tickets, search_knowledge_base), making it easy to infer functionality.

    Tool Count5/5

    Seven tools cover the essential ticket lifecycle and knowledge base search without being excessive, fitting well for an ITSM server.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set covers create, read, update, assignment, and knowledge search, but lacks a delete or archive operation, which may be needed in some workflows.

  • Average 3.6/5 across 7 of 7 tools scored.

    See the Tool Scores section below for per-tool breakdowns.

    If the server belongs to an organization, first add glama.json to the root of your repository:

    {
      "$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/server.json",
      "maintainers": [
        "your-github-username"
      ]
    }

    Then . Browse examples.

  • Add related servers to improve discoverability.

How to sync the server with GitHub?

Servers are automatically synced at least once per day, but you can also sync manually at any time to instantly update the server profile.

To manually sync the server, click the "Sync Server" button in the MCP server admin interface.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    Annotations provide basic hints (non-readOnly, non-destructive), but the description adds no behavioral context beyond creation. It does not disclose side effects like notifications, system validation, or error behavior, which are not covered by annotations.

    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 a single, concise sentence. It is well-structured and gets to the point without unnecessary details, though it could be slightly expanded for clarity.

    Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

    Completeness3/5

    Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

    The tool is simple with 4 parameters and no output schema. The description provides enough to understand the basic action but lacks details on return values, system selection logic, or potential errors. It is minimally complete.

    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 input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for all parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score 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 it creates a new support ticket in an ITSM system, with a specific verb and resource. It effectively distinguishes from sibling tools like 'get_ticket' or 'update_ticket' by focusing on creation.

    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 does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'add_comment' or 'assign_ticket'. It implicitly suggests it's for creating new tickets, but offers no exclusions or context for when not to use it.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    Annotations provide minimal behavioral info. Description only says 'update', missing details on authentication, rate limits, or side effects. Bare minimum disclosure.

    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 sentence, front-loaded, efficient. Minor awkwardness with 'or' list.

    Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

    Completeness3/5

    Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

    Adequate given 5 parameters explained in schema, no output schema. Lacks explanation of updating multiple fields simultaneously, but overall covers main purpose.

    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 coverage is 100%, so baseline 3. Description adds list of updatable fields but uses 'or' which could imply exclusivity, slightly misleading. No significant extra meaning.

    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 clearly states it updates status, priority, or adds a comment to an existing ticket, distinguishing it from siblings like create_ticket and assign_ticket.

    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?

    Implied usage through listing updatable fields, but no explicit guidance on when to use versus add_comment or assign_ticket, nor prerequisites.

    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?

    Annotations already indicate non-readOnly, non-destructive, idempotent. Description adds 'assign' but no further behavioral details (e.g., reassignment effects, notifications). Minimal additional value beyond annotations.

    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 sentence with no wasted words, front-loads the core purpose.

    Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

    Completeness3/5

    Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

    Adequate for a simple assign action, but lacks usage guidance and return value indication. With annotations present, no major gaps but not rich.

    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 parameters with descriptions (100% coverage). Description does not add extra meaning beyond summarizing the action.

    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 action ('assign'), the resource ('a ticket'), and the target ('to a specific user'). Distinguishes from sibling tools like create_ticket, get_ticket, update_ticket.

    Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

    Usage Guidelines2/5

    Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

    No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites mentioned (e.g., ticket existence, user permissions), and no when-not-to-use context.

    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?

    Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=true. The description adds no new behavioral details (e.g., pagination, sorting, API limits) beyond what the schema and annotations imply, so it provides moderate added value.

    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?

    A single 10-word sentence that efficiently conveys the tool's purpose and key filters. No extraneous information, and the core action is front-loaded.

    Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

    Completeness3/5

    Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

    Given the tool's simplicity (list operation with 4 optional parameters, no output schema), the description covers the basics but omits usage guidelines and details about return format or pagination, leaving some gaps for an agent to infer.

    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%, meaning all parameters are documented in the schema. The description merely restates the filter options without adding new semantic context, meeting the baseline but not exceeding it.

    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 explicitly states 'list tickets' with optional filters by status, assignee, or system, providing a specific verb and resource that clearly differentiates from sibling tools which involve creation or modification.

    Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

    Usage Guidelines2/5

    Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

    No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like search_knowledge_base, nor any mention of prerequisites or exclusions. The description only lists optional filters without context on when each is appropriate.

    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?

    Annotations (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false) are consistent with a write operation. Description adds the 'public or internal' nuance already present in schema parameter. No additional behavioral traits (e.g., auth requirements, side effects) are disclosed, but annotations cover basic safety profile.

    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 sentence, front-loaded, zero fluff. Every word contributes to conveying purpose. Appropriate length for a simple tool.

    Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

    Completeness2/5

    Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

    No output schema exists, but description does not hint at return values or response format. For a comment addition tool, the agent might expect to know if the comment ID is returned. Lacks this context.

    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 coverage is 100%, so parameters are fully documented. Description adds no extra meaning beyond summarizing the 'internal' parameter. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate as schema does the heavy lifting.

    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 clearly states verb 'Add', resource 'comment', and context 'to an existing ticket'. Distinguishes between public and internal comments. Sibling tools (create_ticket, update_ticket) are distinct, so purpose is unambiguous.

    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?

    Description implies usage for adding comments to existing tickets but does not explicitly state when not to use this tool (e.g., for creating tickets) or mention alternatives like update_ticket. Guidance is inferred rather than explicit.

    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?

    Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds no further behavioral details beyond the search action, such as authentication needs or result format. No contradiction with annotations.

    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 a single, clear sentence with no wasted words. It could be slightly expanded to include when to use, but it is appropriately front-loaded and efficient.

    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 simple nature of the tool (search with query, limit, system), the description is sufficient. No output schema exists, but the tool's behavior is straightforward and well-covered by annotations and schema.

    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?

    All three parameters have descriptive schema documentation (100% coverage). The description does not add meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so 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 states the verb 'search' and the resource 'knowledge base' with a specific goal: finding articles related to an issue. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools, which are all ticket-related actions.

    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 usage when articles about an issue are needed, but does not explicitly state when to use or not use this tool, nor does it mention alternative tools or context for exclusion.

    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?

    Annotations fully cover safety profile (readOnly, idempotent). Description adds only 'Retrieve full details', consistent with annotations, no additional behavioral context beyond that.

    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 sentence with no wasted words, front-loaded with the key action and resource.

    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 read tool with two parameters and no output schema, description adequately states purpose. Could mention that result includes full ticket details, but not necessary.

    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 has 100% coverage with descriptions for both parameters. Description does not add further meaning; the schema already explains ticket_id and system.

    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 uses specific verb 'Retrieve' and resource 'full details of an existing ticket by ID', clearly distinguishing from siblings like list_tickets (list multiple) or update_ticket (modify).

    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?

    Clear that tool is for retrieving a single ticket by ID, but lacks explicit 'when not to use' or comparison to alternatives like list_tickets for browsing.

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