MCP cldkctl Server

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure but fails completely. It doesn't indicate this is a write/mutation operation (despite 'create' in the name), doesn't mention required permissions, doesn't warn about potential side effects or destructive changes, and provides no information about response format or error handling. For a tool that creates Kubernetes resources, this lack of behavioral information is critical.

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

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

While technically concise (one sentence), this is under-specification rather than effective conciseness. The single sentence 'Call the cldkctl_create_resource_v1 endpoint' provides almost no useful information and wastes the opportunity to explain the tool's purpose. Good conciseness removes redundancy while retaining essential information; this removes essential information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description is completely inadequate for a tool that creates Kubernetes resources. With no annotations, no output schema, and a complex domain (Kubernetes resource creation), the description should explain what the tool does, when to use it, what permissions are needed, and what to expect. Instead, it provides only a tautological statement that adds no value beyond the tool name.

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

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

The schema description coverage is 100%, with both parameters ('resource' and 'resource_data') having clear descriptions in the schema. The description adds no additional parameter information beyond what's already in the schema. According to the scoring rules, when schema coverage is high (>80%), the baseline is 3 even with no parameter information in the description.

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

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

The description 'Call the cldkctl_create_resource_v1 endpoint' is a tautology that restates the tool name without explaining what it does. It mentions 'create_resource_v1' but doesn't specify what resource is being created (Kubernetes resources) or what the operation actually accomplishes. While the name suggests creation, the description adds no meaningful clarification beyond the name itself.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides absolutely no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Given the many sibling tools (like cldkctl_create_deployment, cldkctl_create_pod, etc.), there's no indication of when this generic 'create_resource_v1' should be used versus the more specific creation tools. No prerequisites, context, or exclusions are mentioned.

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