Implementation Reference

  • Schema definition for the 'memory_insights' MCP tool, specifying input parameters projectId and optional timeRange.

  • Handler function getProjectInsights that executes the core logic of retrieving insights and patterns from memory for a specific project, directly corresponding to the tool's description and primary input (projectId). Note: timeRange not yet implemented in this function.

      const manager = await initializeMemory();

      if (ssgMemories.length > 0) {
        const lastSSG = ssgMemories[ssgMemories.length - 1].metadata.ssg;
        insights.push(`Previously used ${lastSSG} for this project`);
      }
    
      // Find deployment patterns
      const deployments = memories.filter((m: any) => m.type === "deployment");
      if (deployments.length > 0) {
        const successful = deployments.filter(
          (d: any) => d.data.status === "success",
        ).length;
        const rate = ((successful / deployments.length) * 100).toFixed(0);
        insights.push(`Deployment success rate: ${rate}%`);
      }
    
      // Find recent activity
      const lastMemory = memories[memories.length - 1];
      if (lastMemory) {
        const daysAgo = Math.floor(
          (Date.now() - new Date(lastMemory.timestamp).getTime()) /
            (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24),
        );

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. 'Get insights and patterns' suggests a read-only analysis operation, but the description doesn't disclose any behavioral traits - no information about permissions needed, rate limits, what 'memory' refers to, whether this is computationally expensive, or what format the insights come in. It provides minimal behavioral context.

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 extremely concise at just 5 words. While this brevity contributes to under-specification in other dimensions, as a standalone assessment of conciseness, it's maximally efficient with zero wasted words.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a tool with 2 parameters, no annotations, no output schema, and many similar sibling tools, the description is inadequate. It doesn't explain what 'memory' refers to, what types of insights are generated, how results are formatted, or when to use this versus other memory analysis tools. The minimal description leaves too many questions unanswered.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters (projectId and timeRange). The description adds no additional meaning about these parameters - it doesn't explain what 'memory' is being analyzed, what kind of insights are generated, or how the timeRange object should be structured beyond what the schema provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate when schema does the documentation work.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description 'Get insights and patterns from memory' is vague and tautological - it essentially restates the tool name 'memory_insights' without specifying what kind of insights or patterns, what 'memory' refers to, or what resource is being analyzed. It doesn't distinguish this tool from sibling memory-related tools like memory_temporal_analysis or memory_intelligent_analysis.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

No guidance is provided about when to use this tool versus alternatives. With many sibling tools including memory_temporal_analysis, memory_intelligent_analysis, and memory_visualization, there's no indication of what makes this tool distinct or when it should be preferred over those alternatives.

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