Āina Atlas MCP
Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.1.0
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: one resolves addresses to TMKs, one performs full parcel lookups, and one compares two parcels. There is no overlap in functionality.
Naming Consistency5/5All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case: resolve_address, lookup_parcel, compare_parcels. The verbs and nouns are clear and uniform.
Tool Count5/5With 3 tools, the server is well-scoped for its intended purpose of Hawaii parcel lookup and comparison. Each tool is essential and contributes to the core workflow without unnecessary redundancy.
Completeness4/5The tool set covers the primary use cases: resolving addresses to TMKs, retrieving full parcel records, and comparing parcels. Minor gaps like batch operations or advanced search are absent but not critical for the stated domain.
Average 4.5/5 across 3 of 3 tools scored.

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
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=true, and the description adds valuable behavioral context such as 'needs no API key' and lists extensive return data. It does not contradict annotations and provides transparency beyond what annotations convey.
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 a single comprehensive paragraph that front-loads the core purpose. While it is detailed, every sentence adds value. It could be more structured, but it is well-organized and not overly verbose given the tool's complexity.
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 no output schema, the description fully covers the return values and context (Hawaii property lookup, hazards, Hawaiian geography, etc.). It is complete and leaves no significant gaps for an agent to understand what the tool returns.
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%, and the description mentions 'by address or TMK' but does not add significant new semantic detail beyond the schema descriptions for 'tmk' and 'address'. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
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 looks up a full Āina Atlas parcel record by address or TMK, listing numerous return fields. It distinguishes itself as the 'core lookup' from siblings like compare_parcels and resolve_address, making its purpose unambiguous.
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 implies use for single parcel lookups but does not explicitly state when to use alternatives. However, it provides clear context that this is the primary lookup tool, which is sufficient for most cases.
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?
Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true, consistent with the description. The description adds valuable behavioral context: it returns both full parcel records and a compact diff of specific fields (acres, zoning, values, hazards, ADU), going beyond what annotations provide.
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?
Two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no wasted words. Every sentence adds value.
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 low complexity (2 parameters, no output schema), the description is complete: it covers input format, output type, and key diff fields. No gaps remain.
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 coverage is 100%, but the description adds meaning by stating each input may be an address or a TMK, clarifying the parameter flexibility beyond just 'string'.
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 compares two Hawaii parcels, specifying input types (address or TMK) and output (full records plus diff of key fields). It distinguishes from siblings like lookup_parcel and resolve_address.
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 implies use when a side-by-side comparison is needed, but does not explicitly contrast with siblings or state when not to use. Still clear enough for an AI agent to infer 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?
Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true. Description adds geocoding process (HI-bounded Nominatim) and precedence rule (if TMK given, address ignored). No contradictions.
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?
Two sentences, no waste. Front-loaded with purpose, then process, then workflow advice.
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?
Complete for a two-param optional tool. Explains process, workflow with sibling, and covers both usage paths. No output schema needed.
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 coverage is 100%, but description adds value by explaining TMK overrides address and that address is free-text for Hawaii. Baseline 3, extra context raises to 4.
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?
Clear verb 'resolve' + specific resource 'address to TMK parcel id'. Distinguishes from siblings by stating it is for initial address lookup before feeding TMK into lookup_parcel.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states 'Use this first when you only have an address; feed the TMK into lookup_parcel.' Provides clear context and alternative.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
