Implementation Reference

  • The async handler function that executes the getPostmanCollection tool logic. It calls handleEndpoint which invokes makeApiRequest to GET '/v1/tools/postman' and formats the response.
      async () => {
        return handleEndpoint(async () => {
          const data = await makeApiRequest(apiKey, '/v1/tools/postman')
          return formatResponse(data)
        })
      }
    )
  • index.js:576-585 (registration)
    Registers the 'getPostmanCollection' tool on the MCP server with the description 'Returns a Postman collection for the CoinMarketCap API.' and an empty schema object (no parameters required).
    server.tool("getPostmanCollection",
      "Returns a Postman collection for the CoinMarketCap API.",
      {},
      async () => {
        return handleEndpoint(async () => {
          const data = await makeApiRequest(apiKey, '/v1/tools/postman')
          return formatResponse(data)
        })
      }
    )
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description provides minimal behavioral context—only that a collection is returned. No details on side effects, authentication requirements, or output format are given.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

A single, concise sentence with no unnecessary words. Front-loaded with the core action and resource.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Adequate for a tool with no parameters and no output schema, but lacks elaboration on what a Postman collection is or its typical structure, which could help an agent understand the return value.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Tool has zero parameters, and schema coverage is trivially 100%. Description correctly implies no inputs needed, meeting the baseline for no-parameter tools.

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

Purpose5/5

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

Clearly states it returns a Postman collection for the CoinMarketCap API. The verb 'Returns' and resource 'Postman collection' are specific and distinct from sibling tools that return cryptocurrency data.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does 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. Does not mention any prerequisites or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage context from the tool name alone.

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