ustore_server_infoCheck the server's base URL, spec source, auth mode, and write policy to verify configuration and diagnose failing API calls.
Report the configured base URL, spec source, auth mode, and write policy. Use this when calls are failing to confirm how the server is wired up.

v1.0.1Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations, but description implies a read-only reporting operation. The parameter description covers refreshSpec's side effect (re-fetching OpenAPI), providing adequate transparency.
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?
Two concise sentences: first states purpose, second gives usage context. No redundancy.
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?
For a simple info tool with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description covers what it does and when to use it, making it complete enough.
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?
Parameter refreshSpec is fully described in the schema (coverage 100%). The main description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
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?
Clearly states it reports the configured base URL, spec source, auth mode, and write policy, distinguishing from sibling tools like list/describe/call endpoints.
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?
Explicitly suggests using when calls are failing to confirm server wiring, but does not mention when not to use or alternatives (though siblings are evident).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
