gograph_schema

Read-onlyIdempotent

Find Go structs that map to a given database table through struct tags, helping trace ORM models before migrations or schema changes.

Instructions

Find Go structs that declare a mapping to a specific database table via struct tags (e.g., db:"table_name", gorm:"table:table_name"). The MCP server checks freshness before this call and refreshes in the current requested analysis mode; precise and precise_fallback graphs retry CHA/SSA after source changes. Read-only; no side effects. WHEN TO USE: When tracing which Go types represent a database table, or before writing a migration to understand the current ORM model. NOT TO USE: For non-tagged Go structs used as query results (use gograph_fields or gograph_query instead). RETURNS: Matching struct names with package paths and file locations; empty when no structs map to the named table.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
rootNoAbsolute path of the checkout you are working in (your cwd or git worktree). Must be this server's repository or one of its git worktrees; the answer then comes from that checkout's own graph. A path elsewhere is refused. Alias: cwd. Omit only when the configured checkout is the one you mean.
limitNoMaximum rows per page; the byte budget may return fewer.
tableYesThe table or schema name to search for in struct tags (e.g., 'users', 'roles')
cursorNoOpaque next_cursor for the same graph snapshot and result selection.
intentionNoTechnical rationale, required for analytical calls selecting an active session.
session_idNoCaller selector returned by session_create. Omission means an independent caller; never inherits server environment or another caller's session.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so 'Read-only; no side effects' is largely redundant. What does add value is the disclosure that the server checks freshness and refreshes in the requested analysis mode, and that precise/precise_fallback graphs retry CHA/SSA after source changes. Pagination/cursor behavior is left to 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

Organized into purpose, freshness note, WHEN/NOT/RETURNS blocks, so the routing information is easy to scan. The 'Read-only; no side effects' sentence duplicates annotations, and the CHA/SSA retry sentence is dense, but nothing is filler.

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?

With no output schema present, the RETURNS block usefully describes struct names, package paths, file locations, and the empty-result case. For a six-parameter tool with a freshness/refresh mechanism, the presence of root and cursor behavior is only implied through the schema rather than the description.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3; the description goes beyond it by giving concrete tag patterns (`db:"table_name"`, `gorm:"table:table_name"`), which tells the agent exactly what forms of `table` will match and clarifies the schema's 'table or schema name' phrasing. It says nothing extra about root, limit, or cursor, but those are already well documented.

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?

States a specific verb (find) and resource (Go structs) narrowed by a precise mechanism: struct tags mapping to a database table, with tag syntax examples. It explicitly separates itself from gograph_fields and gograph_query, so an agent can pick it without opening either schema.

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?

Has explicit WHEN TO USE (tracing which Go types represent a table, pre-migration model checks) and NOT TO USE (non-tagged query-result structs) clauses naming the substitute tools. Nothing about selection is left to inference.

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