Server Quality Checklist

75%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.

  • Latest release: v0.1.2

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct concern: account balance, transcript retrieval, and episode search. No overlap in functionality.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with snake_case (get_balance, get_transcript, search_podcasts).

    Tool Count5/5

    Three tools is perfectly scoped for the server's purpose of podcast transcript retrieval, covering the core workflow without unnecessary complexity.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool surface covers the primary use case (search → transcript) and adds account balance. A minor gap is the lack of a tool to list all available podcasts or get episode details without searching, but this is acceptable.

  • Average 4.3/5 across 3 of 3 tools scored.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It states it returns specific fields and does not consume credits, which implies read-only behavior. However, it omits details on pagination, result limits, or error conditions.

    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?

    The description is three sentences, front-loaded with the main action, and every sentence serves a purpose with no wasted words.

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

    Completeness4/5

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

    Given one parameter, no output schema, and no annotations, the description covers input format, return fields, and linkage to get_transcript. It lacks details on result limits or pagination, but is mostly complete for a simple search tool.

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

    Parameters3/5

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

    Schema coverage is 100% and the schema description already explains the query parameter. The tool description repeats the same information without adding new meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 applies.

    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?

    The description clearly states it searches published podcast episodes by text or URL. It distinguishes from siblings: get_balance is unrelated, get_transcript is a follow-up using the returned id.

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

    Usage Guidelines4/5

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

    The description specifies when to use the tool: to search episodes. It mentions the follow-up tool get_transcript, but lacks explicit guidance on when not to use it or alternatives, though siblings are few and clear.

    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?

    Despite no annotations, the description discloses that first fetch costs 1 credit, repeats are free, and errors are not charged, providing helpful behavioral context for a read operation.

    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?

    Two succinct sentences that front-load the action and output, with no extraneous information.

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

    Completeness4/5

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

    For a single-parameter tool with no output schema, the description adequately covers usage, return format, and cost policy; lacks mention of limits or size.

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

    Parameters3/5

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

    Schema coverage is 100% with episode_id already described; the description only reinforces this without adding extra semantic detail.

    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?

    The description clearly states the tool fetches a transcript as cleaned Markdown with speaker names and timestamps, distinguishing it from sibling tools like get_balance and search_podcasts.

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

    Usage Guidelines4/5

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

    Explicitly instructs to pass an episode id from search_podcasts and mentions credit cost policy, but does not specify when not to use or alternative tools.

    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?

    With no annotations, the description provides key behavioral trait: 'Does not consume credits' and lists what is checked (balance, email, usage). It appropriately discloses read-only nature without side effects.

    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 that front-loads the action and includes important side-effect information. Every word earns its place with no redundancy.

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

    Completeness5/5

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

    For a parameterless read-only tool, the description fully covers what the tool does and returns (balance, email, usage). It explains safety (no credits consumed) and distinguishes from siblings.

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

    Parameters5/5

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

    No parameters exist, so schema coverage is effectively 100%. The baseline for 0 parameters is 4, and the description adds no parameter info since none needed. Score 5 as it fully satisfies the dimension.

    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?

    The description clearly states the tool checks the Spoken credit balance, account email, and recent usage. The verb 'Check' and specific resources make the purpose unambiguous and distinct from sibling tools (get_transcript, search_podcasts).

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

    Usage Guidelines4/5

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

    The description implies when to use (to check balance) and explicitly states it does not consume credits, indicating safety. While it does not mention alternatives, sibling tools are sufficiently different that no confusion arises.

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