Implementation Reference

  • The handler implementation for the "tdx-asset-get" MCP tool, which fetches a TDX asset by ID using the client.
    server.tool(
      "tdx-asset-get",
      "Get a TDX asset by ID",
      {
        appId: z.number().optional().describe("TDX app ID (defaults to env TDX_APP_ID)"),
        id: z.number().describe("Asset ID"),
      },
      async (params) => {
        const app = params.appId ?? defaultAppId;
        try {
          const result = await client.get(`/${app}/assets/${params.id}`);
          return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] };
        } catch (e: unknown) {
          return { content: [{ type: "text", text: String(e) }], isError: true };
        }
      }
    );
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states 'Get' implies a read operation, but lacks details on permissions, rate limits, error handling, or what constitutes an 'asset' (e.g., hardware, software). This is inadequate for a tool with no annotation coverage.

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 a single, efficient sentence with zero waste—it directly states the tool's purpose without unnecessary words. It's appropriately sized and front-loaded, making it easy to parse quickly.

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?

Given no annotations and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what an 'asset' entails, the return format, error cases, or how it differs from sibling tools. For a retrieval tool in a complex environment with many siblings, this leaves significant gaps for an AI agent.

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%, with clear documentation for both parameters ('appId' and 'id'). The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, such as format examples or context for 'Asset ID'. Baseline 3 is appropriate since the schema does the heavy lifting.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states the verb ('Get') and resource ('a TDX asset by ID'), making the purpose immediately understandable. However, it doesn't distinguish this tool from its siblings like 'tdx-asset-search' or 'tdx-cmdb-get', which might also retrieve assets or related data, leaving some ambiguity about when to choose this specific retrieval method.

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?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. With siblings like 'tdx-asset-search' (for broader queries) and 'tdx-cmdb-get' (potentially for related data), there's no indication that this is for direct ID-based lookup, nor any prerequisites or exclusions mentioned.

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