Running evals

The evals package loads an mcp client that then runs the index.ts file, so there is no need to rebuild between tests. You can load environment variables by prefixing the npx command. Full documentation can be found here.

    B3.2/5.0

    Scored across 4 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool serves a distinct purpose: describe_table shows schema, execute handles writes, list_tables lists tables, and query handles reads. No overlap or ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency2/5

    Naming is inconsistent: 'describe_table' and 'list_tables' follow verb_noun, while 'execute' is a bare verb and 'query' is a noun. No uniform pattern.

    Tool Count4/5

    Four tools is reasonable for basic database operations, covering schema inspection, reads, and writes. Could be slightly expanded, but not under- or over-scoped.

    Completeness3/5

    Covers essential CRUD and schema listing, but misses DDL operations like create/alter/drop table, which are common needs. Notable gap for schema modification.
