Poi MCP Server
Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v1.0.1
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool targets a distinct action: license checking versus issuance, downloading versus uploading, and commenting operations are separate. There is no overlap in functionality.
Naming Consistency5/5All tools follow a consistent 'poi_verb_noun' pattern, with clear verbs like check, download, issue, list, post, upload. The naming is predictable and unambiguous.
Tool Count5/5With 6 tools covering license management, content upload/download, and commenting, the set is well-scoped for the server's purpose. Each tool earns its place.
Completeness4/5Core workflows (upload, download, license management, comments) are covered, but missing operations like delete or update for sites and comments create minor gaps.
Average 4.1/5 across 6 of 6 tools scored.

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
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description is expected to disclose behavioral traits. It states the operation is a retrieval (implies read-only) and that comments are ordered by newest. It does not mention rate limits, pagination, or potential errors, but the information is adequate for basic understanding.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence that conveys all essential information: the required parameter, the action, the ordering, and authentication requirement. No redundant words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (one parameter, no output schema), the description covers the core functionality. However, it omits details about return format, pagination, or error handling, which could be important for an agent to use the tool correctly in all scenarios.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with a clear description for 'slug'. The tool description adds value beyond the schema by noting the ordering (newest first) and that no authentication is needed, enhancing the agent's understanding of parameter context.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses the verb '取得' (retrieve) and specifies the resource '訪問者コメント' (visitor comments) for a public site, clearly indicating the tool's function. While it distinguishes from siblings like 'poi_post_comment', it does not explicitly differentiate from other read tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description mentions that authentication is not required, which is a helpful usage note. However, it does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it specify 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?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses the license validity (1 month) and usage for poi_upload, but does not mention any side effects, destructive behavior, idempotency, or authorization details beyond the password.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, front-loaded with the core action, and contains no redundant information. Every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one optional parameter, the description is adequate. It explains what the license key is and how it is used. It lacks details on failure modes or outcomes, but is sufficient for basic usage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and already describes the password parameter well. The description adds marginal value by repeating the parameter's purpose, but does not provide additional details beyond what the schema offers.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it issues a free license key (LIC-..., valid 1 month) using an issue password, and that the key can be used for poi_upload. It distinguishes itself from siblings by specifying the exact purpose.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explains when to use (when needing a free license key) and how to provide the password (via parameter or environment variable). It doesn't explicitly state when not to use or contrast with sibling tools, 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.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden. It discloses that authentication is not required and that body has a character limit. However, it does not describe the result of the operation (e.g., success indication, returned data) or potential side effects (e.g., whether a duplicate comment is allowed).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise: three sentences that front-load the purpose and then provide key constraints. Every sentence adds necessary information without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers authentication, optional parameters, and limits, but lacks information about the return value (no output schema) and error conditions. For a creation tool, this is a notable gap in completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
All parameters are described in the schema (100% coverage). The description adds value by clarifying that 'author' defaults to anonymous when omitted and specifying the exact character limit for 'body', which is not in the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description explicitly states the action ('post a comment') and the target ('public site' identified by slug). It is specific and clearly distinguishes from sibling tools like poi_list_comments (listing) and poi_upload (file upload).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear constraints: author optional (anonymous if omitted), body max 2000 chars, no authentication required. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or mention alternatives beyond the sibling context.
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 carries full burden. It discloses that authentication is not required, the return includes path/type/size, and the handling differs by site type (md vs zip). However, it omits potential errors (e.g., invalid slug) or size limits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, front-loading the main action and essential details. Every sentence provides meaningful information without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and 3 parameters, the description covers core download behavior, return values, and constraints. It could be more complete on error handling (e.g., invalid slug) or idempotency, but it is sufficient for basic use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by explaining the slug format (from /s/<slug>/) and the file type logic (md vs zip) beyond the schema's parameter descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool downloads a public POI site by slug and saves it locally, specifying that Markdown sites save as .md and others as .zip. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like poi_upload (upload) and poi_list_comments (list comments).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for downloading public sites but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to use poi_upload instead). No when-not-to-use guidance is provided, though the context of siblings hints at the tool's niche.
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 carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool uploads files, issues public URLs, supports specific formats, and auto-expires in 7 days. Key traits like authentication (via apiKey) and non-destructive nature are implied but not explicitly stated. Overall, it provides sufficient behavioral context beyond the schema.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise, consisting of three short sentences that each add distinct value: purpose, supported formats, and expiration. No fluff; front-loaded with the primary action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
While the description covers key aspects (purpose, modes, formats, expiration), it lacks details on return value format (though implied to be a URL) and behavior when both path and content are provided. With no output schema, more information on the response structure would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value by grouping parameters into two usage modes (path vs. content+filename), which clarifies the interdependence. This grouping enhances understanding beyond individual parameter descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: upload local files or text content to generate a public URL. Supported formats and automatic expiration are explicitly mentioned, making the tool's function specific and distinct from sibling tools like download or license management.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explains two usage modes (path or content+filename) and lists supported formats and expiration duration. While it does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools, the functions are sufficiently different that no additional guidance is necessary. However, it could be improved by clarifying when to use each mode.
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?
The description discloses key behavioral traits: it is a read-only operation (no side effects), returns specific fields (valid, expires_at, days_left), and requires no authentication. With no annotations provided, this level of detail is adequate.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, efficiently conveying purpose, input handling, and output details. No redundant information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (1 optional parameter, no output schema), the description fully explains input, behavior, and return values (valid, expires_at, days_left). It addresses the env var fallback and auth requirements, leaving no major gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema parameter 'key' has 100% coverage (description in schema matches description). However, the tool description adds extra context: the key format (LIC-…) and the fallback to environment variable, which aids understanding beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: determining if a license key (with format LIC-…) is valid, and returning validity status and expiration details. It is distinct from sibling tools (poi_download, poi_issue_free_license, etc.), which do not perform license checking.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides explicit context: it mentions that omitting the key checks the environment variable POI_API_KEY and that authentication is not required. While it does not explicitly list alternatives, the sibling tools indicate this is the only license-check tool, so usage guidance is clear.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
