QGIS MCP

by nkarasiak

Execute Code

execute_code
Destructive

Run custom PyQGIS code to perform GIS operations beyond standard tools, leveraging QGIS project, interface, and core classes.

Instructions

Execute arbitrary PyQGIS code. Use for operations not covered by other tools. Has access to QgsProject, iface, and core QGIS classes. Returns stdout/stderr.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true. Description adds context about the execution environment (access to QgsProject, iface, core classes) and return value (stdout/stderr), which is valuable beyond the annotation.

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?

Three concise sentences that front-load purpose and usage. Every sentence adds value, no redundancy.

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 single-parameter code execution tool with destructive annotation and no output schema, the description covers purpose, usage, environment, and return. It lacks explicit safety warnings or error behavior, but is sufficiently complete given the simplicity.

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 parameter 'code' has 0% schema description coverage. The description explains that the code should be PyQGIS code, which adds semantic meaning, but does not detail format, scope, or examples. This is adequate but minimal.

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 tool executes arbitrary PyQGIS code, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by specifying it is for operations not covered by other tools.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly tells when to use the tool: 'Use for operations not covered by other tools.' This provides clear guidance on when to prefer this tool over alternatives.

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