MCP Billing Gateway SDK
MCP Billing Gateway
Fügen Sie Stripe-Abonnements, Credits pro Aufruf und x402-Krypto-Zahlungen zu jedem MCP-Server hinzu — ohne Abrechnungscode schreiben zu müssen.
MCP Billing Gateway ist ein gehosteter Abrechnungs-Proxy, der zwischen KI-Agenten und Ihrem MCP-Server sitzt. Er übernimmt automatisch die Zahlungsüberprüfung, Nutzungsverfolgung und die Durchsetzung von Tarifen. Sie registrieren Ihren Server, legen einen Preisplan fest und verweisen Aufrufer auf die Proxy-URL. Kein Abrechnungscode erforderlich.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states the tool retrieves information, implying a read-only operation, but fails to detail aspects like authentication needs, rate limits, response format, or error handling. This leaves significant gaps in understanding how the tool behaves.
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?
The description is a single, efficient sentence that directly states the tool's function without unnecessary words. It is front-loaded with the core action and resource, making it easy to parse and understand quickly.
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?
Given the tool has zero parameters, 100% schema coverage, and an output schema exists, the description's focus on purpose is adequate. However, it lacks behavioral details (e.g., response structure, error cases) that could enhance completeness, especially since no annotations are provided to fill those gaps.
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 tool has zero parameters, and the input schema coverage is 100%, so no parameter documentation is needed. The description appropriately does not discuss parameters, focusing instead on the tool's purpose, which aligns with the baseline expectation for parameterless tools.
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 clearly states the action ('Get information') and target resource ('MCP Billing Gateway service and integration options'), making the purpose understandable. It lacks sibling tools for differentiation, but the scope is well-defined. No tautology or misleading elements are present.
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?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool, such as for setup, troubleshooting, or comparison with other services. The description implies usage for general information retrieval but offers no context, alternatives, or exclusions, leaving the agent without operational direction.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

TDQS
Scored across 1 tool
With only one tool, there is no possibility of ambiguity or overlap between tools, as there are no other tools to confuse it with. The tool's purpose is clearly defined as retrieving billing information, making disambiguation trivial.
The single tool name 'get_billing_info' follows a clear verb_noun pattern (get + billing_info), which is consistent with itself. Since there are no other tools, there is no inconsistency to evaluate, and the naming is straightforward.
A single tool is too few for a server named 'MCP Billing Gateway SDK', which suggests a broader scope for managing billing operations. This minimal set likely leaves significant gaps in functionality, such as creating, updating, or deleting billing data, making it inappropriate for comprehensive billing tasks.
The tool set is severely incomplete for a billing gateway domain, as it only provides a read operation (get_billing_info) without any support for create, update, delete, or other essential billing workflows. This will cause agent failures when attempting to perform full billing lifecycle management.
