Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.1.2
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool is named after a distinct entity (e.g., monica_contact, monica_call) and clearly specifies the actions supported. Over 29 tools, no two appear to cover the same domain, making selection unambiguous.
Naming Consistency5/5All tools follow a consistent pattern: 'monica_' followed by a singular noun in snake_case (e.g., monica_activity_type). No mixing of conventions or verb-noun styles; uniformity is high.
Tool Count4/529 tools are appropriate for a comprehensive personal CRM server covering contacts, activities, calls, notes, tasks, etc. While slightly on the higher side, each tool corresponds to a well-defined entity and earns its place.
Completeness4/5The tool set offers full CRUD for most major entities (contacts, activities, calls, tasks, etc.) and includes additional actions like search and tagging. Minor gaps exist (e.g., documents only have list/get, no create/update/delete), but overall coverage is strong.
Average 3/5 across 29 of 29 tools scored. Lowest: 1.5/5.

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
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description omits the destructive actions (create, update, delete) that are listed in the input schema and fails to mention that delete is irreversible. This misleads the agent about the tool's capabilities and behavior.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely short but not effectively concise; it omits essential information and is inaccurate. It does not earn its place as it fails to clarify the tool's purpose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the lack of output schema and the presence of multiple actions (including destructive ones), the description is completely inadequate. It does not explain return values, error handling, or use cases.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Although the input schema has 100% coverage and detailed parameter descriptions, the tool description adds no additional meaning. It only mentions 'list, get' despite the schema supporting more actions, causing confusion.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Manage photos. Actions: list, get.' is tautological and vague. It fails to specify what kind of photos or the broader context, and it understates the actual available actions compared to the input schema.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does 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, nor explanation of the appropriate context for each action. The description does not help the agent choose between monica_photo and siblings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must fully disclose behavior. It only mentions list and get, omitting create, update, delete operations, and fails to explain any side effects, authentication needs, or constraints. This is a significant gap.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely brief but this is not concise—it is under-specified and inaccurate. Every sentence should add clarity; this one does not.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 4 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is critically incomplete. It provides no context on return values, pagination, or error states, leaving the agent without essential information.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Although schema coverage is 100%, the description adds no value beyond the schema. It actually misrepresents the action parameter by only listing two operations, contradicting the schema's enum. Parameter semantics are degraded.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Manage countrys. Actions: list, get.' but the schema reveals additional actions (create, update, delete) not mentioned. This is misleading and incomplete, failing to convey the full scope of the tool's capabilities.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus its siblings, which include many similar entity management tools. The description lacks context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Description omits destructive actions (create, update, delete) that are present in the schema, potentially leading an agent to think the tool is read-only. No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure but fails to mention side effects or irreversible operations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Very short (two sentences) but sacrifices accuracy and completeness. Frontal loading is minimal. While concise, the brevity leads to missing critical information about the tool's full capabilities.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema exists, so the description should compensate by explaining return values or behavioral details. It fails to do so. Only 2 of 5 possible actions are mentioned, and there is no context about pagination, filtering, or other behaviors relevant to a 4-parameter tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% coverage, so baseline is 3, but the description adds no value and actually undermines the schema by listing only two actions. It does not explain parameters beyond what the schema already provides, and it misrepresents the allowed actions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
States 'Manage relationship_type_groups' which is vague and doesn't distinguish from sibling tools like monica_relationship_type. The description claims only list and get actions, but the schema includes create, update, delete, making the purpose statement inaccurate.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does 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 (e.g., monica_relationship_type). Does not specify any use cases or conditions for using create/update/delete actions, which are mentioned in the schema but omitted from the description.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description contradicts the schema: it limits actions to list/get, but the schema supports create, update, delete. No annotations provided to clarify side effects or permissions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely short (6 words) but under-specified and misleading. Conciseness is not beneficial when it omits critical information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite full schema coverage, the description lacks context about the entity, typical usage, error handling, or relationship to sibling tools. Incomplete for a CRUD tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% so baseline is 3, but the description adds no value and actually misrepresents the action parameter. It does not enhance understanding beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Manage activity_type_categorys. Actions: list, get.' but the schema action parameter describes additional actions (create, update, delete). The purpose is vague and the listed actions are misleadingly incomplete.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like monica_activity_type. The description provides no context for appropriate usage or alternatives.
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 provided. Description fails to disclose that delete is irreversible (schema mentions it but description omits), and does not explain create/update behavior.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Too brief; only two phrases. Omits critical actions (create, update, delete) from the description, sacrificing completeness for conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Missing output schema and behavioral context. For a 4-parameter tool, description is insufficient. No hints on return values or side effects.
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 covers 100% of parameters with good descriptions. Tool description adds no extra meaning, so baseline 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description says 'Manage genders' which is vague, and only mentions 'list, get' while the schema supports create, update, and delete, making the description misleading.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like monica_contact or monica_activity. Context lacks decision criteria.
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 must fully disclose behavior. It mentions 'list' and 'get' but omits the create, update, and delete actions that appear in the schema, and provides no warnings about destructive operations like delete being irreversible.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise (one sentence) but lacks structure and completeness. While short, it omits important details, making it merely average.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With 4 parameters, no output schema, and many sibling tools, the description is insufficient. It does not explain return values, pagination behavior, or how to use the id parameter, leaving significant gaps.
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?
The input schema has 100% coverage of parameter descriptions, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides; it merely echoes the action values.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description says 'Manage currencys. Actions: list, get.' The verb 'Manage' is vague, and the listed actions are incomplete compared to the schema which includes create, update, and delete. This misalignment reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus the many sibling tools (e.g., monica_activity, monica_contact). The description lacks any context for choosing this tool.
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?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only states actions. It fails to disclose behavioral traits such as destructive operations (delete), authentication needs, or rate limits. The schema mentions irreversibility for delete, but the description omits this.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise but under-specified. It lacks necessary details to effectively guide an AI agent, missing essential context for each action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and four parameters, the description should provide more context (e.g., return format, pagination). It does not, leaving the tool incomplete for effective use.
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%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter information beyond what the schema already provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Manage documents. Actions: list, get.' presents a general verb 'Manage' and lists two actions, offering moderate clarity. However, the schema's action description includes create, update, delete, causing inconsistency and reducing clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool or when to choose between list and get. Sibling tools like monica_note exist, but no differentiation is given.
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?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavioral traits. It only says 'Manage relationship_types. Actions: list, get.' and does not mention side effects, permissions, or idempotency. The schema's action parameter descriptions provide some detail, but the description adds no behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short (one sentence) but at the cost of completeness and accuracy. Conciseness is acceptable, but misleading content reduces its effectiveness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 4 parameters, 1 required, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain what a relationship type is, how to use the actions effectively, or how it relates to other tools. Significant gaps remain for the agent to understand its role.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Although schema description coverage is 100%, the description adds no meaning beyond the schema and actually contradicts it by stating only 'list' and 'get' actions while the schema supports all five. This mismatch reduces clarity and fails to add value.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Manage relationship_types. Actions: list, get.' which identifies the resource and listed actions but is vague about the full scope. The schema includes additional actions (create, update, delete) that are omitted, making it misleading. It does not differentiate from sibling tools like monica_relationship or monica_relationship_type_group.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus siblings. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or situations where alternatives are better. The description lacks any usage direction.
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?
With no annotations, the description must carry the full burden of behavioral transparency. It only warns that delete is irreversible, which is helpful, but fails to disclose other behaviors such as whether operations are idempotent, require specific permissions, or have side effects beyond the actions listed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and front-loaded with the core action list, earning its place without extraneous words. However, the typo 'addresss' slightly marrs an otherwise concise structure.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite the schema covering parameters well, the description lacks contextual completeness. It does not explain return values, pagination behavior, error handling, or any integration context. For a tool with 11 parameters and no output schema, more context is needed.
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?
The input schema has 100% description coverage for all 11 parameters, so the schema already provides solid meaning. The description adds only the note about delete being irreversible, which slightly enriches the action parameter semantics but does not add depth to other parameters.
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 clearly indicates that the tool manages addresses and specifies the actions (list, get, create, update, delete), which distinguishes it from sibling tools that manage other entities. However, the verb 'manage' is generic and a typo ('addresss') slightly reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no context about prerequisites or typical scenarios, and no exclusions. It simply lists actions without any decision support.
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 warns that 'delete is irreversible' using a warning symbol, which is good. However, it does not disclose other behaviors like read/write safety, rate limits, or side effects of other actions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with 'Manage contacts,' but then becomes a long enumeration of actions. It is somewhat verbose but structured with a warning and two lists. Could be more concise by grouping similar actions.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool has 25 parameters and no output schema. The description lacks information about data model, parameter dependencies, and action-specific requirements. For example, 'update_career' is listed but not explained. Pagination and sorting are partially covered in schema but not in description.
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 description coverage is 76%, which is high. The description lists actions but adds little meaning beyond the schema's parameter descriptions. It does not elaborate on parameter usage or constraints beyond what schema already provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate.
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 starts with 'Manage contacts,' which clearly identifies the resource. The list of actions (list, get, create, update, delete) provides specific verbs. However, the description is more of a menu than a concise verb-resource statement, lacking a focused purpose. It distinguishes from siblings by targeting contacts.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It lists actions but does not explain context or trade-offs. No sibling comparison or situational advice is given.
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?
The description only mentions that delete is irreversible. Given no annotations, it should disclose more behavioral traits such as side effects of other actions, required permissions, rate limits, or idempotency. The current disclosure is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise, consisting of two sentences. However, given the complexity of 11 parameters and 9 actions, it could be better structured to quickly convey required parameter combinations per action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description lacks explanation of usage patterns, required parameter combinations for each action, and common workflows. Without output schema or annotations, the agent is left to infer how to invoke actions correctly, leading to potential errors.
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?
All parameters have descriptions in the input schema (100% coverage), so the baseline is 3. The tool description does not add any further semantic value beyond what the schema already provides.
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 states the resource ('conversations') and lists multiple actions, making the tool's purpose clear. However, it does not differentiate from sibling CRUD tools like monica_contact or monica_note, which likely have similar action patterns.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The only conditional advice is a warning about irreversible delete, but there is no information about prerequisites, context, or when not to use the tool.
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?
The description includes a warning that delete is irreversible, which is a key behavioral trait. However, with no annotations provided, the description fails to disclose other behaviors such as authorization needs, idempotency, or side effects beyond the delete warning.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short (two sentences) and to the point, with no unnecessary words. The warning is effectively placed. However, it could be slightly more structured, e.g., listing actions in a bulleted format.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 7 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description is inadequate. It does not explain pagination for list, required fields for create/update, or the return structure, leaving significant gaps for an agent to use it correctly.
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%, so the input schema already describes all parameters. The description adds no extra meaning beyond what is in the schema, 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.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool manages 'companys' (company records) and lists the available CRUD actions, making the purpose clear. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools that also manage other entities, and the typo 'companys' slightly reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not explain when to choose 'list' over 'get', or under what circumstances to use this tool over similar monica_* tools for other entities.
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?
The only behavioral disclosure is that delete is irreversible. No annotations exist, so the description should detail side effects, authentication needs, or rate limits. The tool has multiple mutation actions, but transparency is minimal, leaving the agent without critical behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short, consisting of two sentences that efficiently convey the tool's scope and a key warning. It is well front-loaded with 'Manage gifts' and action list, with no wasted words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity of 13 parameters, multiple actions, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is too minimal. It lacks information on return format, error handling, parameter constraints per action, and relationships, leaving the agent without sufficient context to use the tool effectively.
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?
The input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for each parameter, so the description adds no semantic value beyond the schema. It lists actions but does not elaborate on parameter usage, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
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 states it manages gifts and lists actions (list, get, create, update, delete, associate_photo), clearly indicating the resource and operations. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools beyond the subject matter, but siblings are distinct entities, so it is adequate.
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 use for gift operations by naming the resource, but provides no explicit guidance on when to use or not use this tool compared to alternatives. Since siblings cover different entities, the usage is implied but not stated.
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?
The description warns that 'delete is irreversible,' which adds behavioral context. However, it does not disclose other important traits such as whether updates are partial or full, authorization requirements, or side effects. Since annotations are absent, the description carries the full burden but only partially fulfills it.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise, consisting of two short sentences. It efficiently conveys the tool's scope and a critical warning. No unnecessary words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (CRUD with 7 parameters) and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain return values, pagination behavior for list, or nuances of create/update operations. The schema provides structure but the description misses key contextual details.
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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add significant meaning beyond the schema; it merely summarizes the actions. The schema already explains each parameter adequately.
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 clearly states 'Manage relationships' and lists the CRUD actions (list, get, create, update, delete), making the tool's purpose evident. However, it does not explicitly differentiate this tool from sibling tools like monica_contact or monica_relationship_type, which could cause ambiguity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to use list vs get, or which sibling tool to choose for a given task). The description lacks explicit context for decision-making.
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?
With no annotations, the description must bear the full burden. It states 'list', implying read-only, but lacks details on pagination, limits, or behavior when no logs exist.
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, clear sentence with no wasted words. It is appropriately front-loaded.
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 lack of output schema and many sibling tools, the description is somewhat minimal. It does not explain return format or scope, but for a simple list tool it is adequate.
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 zero parameters with 100% coverage, baseline is 4. The description adds no parameter semantics, but none are needed.
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 clearly states the tool lists audit logs, which is a specific resource. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from siblings like monica_activity or monica_conversation, but 'audit logs' is a distinct concept.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as monica_activity or monica_contact. There is no mention of prerequisites or context.

- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description partially compensates by warning that delete is irreversible. However, it fails to disclose other behavioral traits like authentication requirements, side effects of other actions, or rate limits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences, front-loading the core purpose. Every word earns its place, though it could be more structured (e.g., grouping actions by type).
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 7 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain the output format of list/get, the meaning of 'body' or 'contact_id', or the context for using each action. The agent lacks enough information to use the tool correctly.
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%, so parameters are well-documented in the schema. The description adds minimal value beyond listing actions; it does not explain how parameters like 'id' relate to specific actions or provide usage patterns.
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 clearly states the tool handles notes and lists specific actions (list, get, create, update, delete). This verb+resource clarity distinguishes it from other monica_* sibling tools, though it could be more specific about what constitutes a note.
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 the tool is for note management but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives or which action to choose. The action parameter descriptions in the schema help, but the description itself lacks context.
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 provided; the description only notes that delete is irreversible. Lacks disclosure of authentication needs, idempotency, rate limits, or other behavioral aspects beyond the single warning.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Parameters3/5Does 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 little beyond listing actions and warning about delete; the schema already documents each parameter adequately.
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 manages journal entries and lists the five actions (list, get, create, update, delete). It effectively distinguishes from sibling tools which are for other entities.
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 lists the available actions, providing clear context for when to use each. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or mention alternatives, though sibling names imply entity-specific usage.
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 implies a read-only operation but does not disclose any behavioral traits like authentication requirements, rate limits, or data freshness. Adequate but not detailed.
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?
Single sentence, front-loaded with verb and resource, no wasted words.
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 low complexity, the description covers the basic purpose. Lacks detail on return fields, but is sufficient for a simple retrieval tool.
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?
Zero parameters and 100% schema coverage; description adds meaning beyond the empty schema by specifying what is retrieved (authenticated user's information).
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 verb 'Get' and the resource 'currently authenticated user's information', distinguishing it from sibling tools which target specific entities like activities, contacts, etc.
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 context is clear: use to retrieve the authenticated user's info. No explicit exclusions or alternatives, but the purpose is unambiguous and distinct from sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
