Server Quality Checklist

58%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v0.1.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a distinct purpose: derive_path generates learning paths, load_target loads targets, record_progress logs attempts, record_verdict records exam verdicts, set_target stores goals, and status reports coverage. No overlap.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    Most tools follow verb_noun pattern (derive_path, load_target, record_progress, record_verdict, set_target). 'status' is a single noun but is a common exception.

    Tool Count5/5

    Six tools is well-scoped for the domain of managing learning targets and progress. Neither too few nor too many.

    Completeness5/5

    The tool set covers the full workflow: setting targets, loading them, deriving paths for uncovered claims, recording progress and verdicts, and reporting status. No obvious gaps.

  • Average 3.4/5 across 6 of 6 tools scored. Lowest: 2.4/5.

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?

    No annotations are provided, so the description must fully describe behavior. It only says 'Store', implying a write operation, but lacks details on whether it overwrites, requires permissions, or triggers side effects. The description is insufficient to understand the tool's impact.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it lacks structure and important details. It is front-loaded with the main purpose but the brevity sacrifices completeness.

    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?

    The tool has no annotations, no output schema, and 2 required parameters. The description is too brief; it does not explain return value or behavior when a target already exists. Given the complexity and missing structured information, the description is inadequate.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters2/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It mentions 'claims + pass criteria', but 'pass criteria' is not a parameter; 'claims' is an array of items without type specification. The description adds minimal meaning beyond the parameter names.

    Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

    Purpose3/5

    Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

    The description states the tool 'Store the goal as a spec (claims + pass criteria)', indicating a write operation for a goal. However, 'spec' is vague, and the mention of 'pass criteria' doesn't match the schema parameters. It does not differentiate from siblings like 'load_target' or 'record_progress'.

    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 such as 'load_target' or 'record_progress'. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or 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.

  • Behavior3/5

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

    With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses durability, validation of target existence, and module_id claim check. However, it omits side effects, error handling, and what 'durable' means operationally.

    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?

    Two sentences front-loaded with purpose. No redundancy. Could be slightly improved by separating the validation note more distinctly, but overall efficient.

    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, so description should explain return value or outcome. It does not describe what happens after logging, error responses, or how to interpret results. Lacks detail for a tool with three parameters and validation.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters2/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    Schema coverage is 0%, and description only mentions module_id as a known claim. It does not explain status (possible values or meaning) or evidence (optional usage). The description adds minimal value beyond schema structure.

    Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

    Purpose4/5

    Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

    The description clearly states the tool logs a learning attempt with evidence (durable). It specifies validation against a target and known claim, distinguishing from sibling 'record_verdict' by mentioning similar guard. However, the concept of 'learning attempt' could be more precise.

    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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like 'record_verdict' or 'status'. The mention of 'same guard as record_verdict' implies a shared validation pattern but does not clarify context or exclusions.

    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, and the description does not disclose side effects, permissions, or outcomes of deriving modules. It implies a transformation but lacks detail.

    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. While efficient, it could benefit from additional structure or detail without being verbose.

    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?

    Given no annotations and no output schema, the description is the sole source of information. It fails to explain what 'derive' means, what 'modules' are, or the outcome, leaving significant gaps.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters4/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    There are zero parameters, so the schema alone provides no meaning. The description adds the context of the action on specific claims, which is necessary for understanding the tool's purpose.

    Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

    Purpose4/5

    Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

    The description clearly states the verb 'derive' and the resource 'modules for claims not yet passed'. It distinguishes from siblings which focus on loading, recording, or status. However, 'derive modules' could be more specific.

    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 vs. alternatives like load_target or status. The description does not specify context or exclusions.

    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 full burden. It discloses a warning behavior (only_same_context for matches from discouraged inline grading), but does not state whether the tool is read-only, has side effects, or requires authentication.

    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?

    Two sentences: the first states the main action, the second adds an important nuance. No wasted words.

    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?

    For a tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description explains the core purpose and a behavioral caveat, but it does not describe the return value or format, leaving some incompleteness.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters4/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    The tool has no parameters; schema coverage is 100% (vacuously). Baseline for 0 params is 4, and the description does not need to add parameter semantics.

    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 reports coverage against the Target and defines what 'matched' means. Sibling tools (derive_path, load_target, record_progress, record_verdict, set_target) perform different actions, so status stands out as distinct.

    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 a coverage report is needed, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives or provide exclusions. No guidance on 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.

  • Behavior3/5

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

    With no annotations provided, the description carries the burden. It discloses that the tool sets the current target and performs validation, but lacks details on side effects (e.g., overwriting), error handling, or access requirements.

    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 sentences with no filler. The first sentence states the core action; the second provides default and validation context. Every sentence is essential.

    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 tool with one parameter, no output schema, and no annotations, the description covers purpose, default, and validation. It could briefly mention return behavior, but overall it is adequate.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters4/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description compensates by explaining the parameter as a file path for a JSON template and noting the default. This adds meaning beyond the schema, though it could clarify format constraints.

    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 action 'Load a Target from a JSON template file' and 'set it as the current target', specifying the resource and outcome. It also distinguishes from siblings like set_target by mentioning file-based loading and validation via build_target.

    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?

    The description implies usage for loading a target from a file, with a useful default example. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or mention alternatives like set_target.

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

  • Behavior5/5

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

    The description details the fresh-context mechanism and two coercion rules (score <0.7 and needs_lab with no evidence). Since no annotations are provided, the description fully discloses behavioral traits.

    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 detailed and well-structured, with clear sections for purpose, mechanism, and parameter options. It is slightly verbose but every sentence adds value.

    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 6 parameters with no schema descriptions and no output schema, the description covers the core behavior and coercion rules but omits details on module_id, gaps, and probe_followups. Adequate but not fully 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 description adds meaning for verdict_source (explaining its two values) and for passed/score via coercion rules, but does not explain module_id, gaps, or probe_followups. Schema coverage is 0%, so the description partially compensates.

    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's purpose: 'record the cold examiner's verdict.' It explains the context of a fresh-context examiner subagent and differentiates from sibling tools by focusing on verdict recording.

    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?

    The description provides explicit guidance on verdict_source, recommending 'fresh-context' and discouraging 'same-context,' and notes that status() flags matches backed only by same-context. This helps the agent decide when to use each option.

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