Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v1.1.0

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct operation: listing sites, getting current site info, running queries, and inspecting schema. No overlap in purpose.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All tools share a 'mysql_' prefix and are descriptive. However, patterns vary: 'list_sites' is verb_noun, but 'query' and 'schema' are single nouns, and 'current_site' is a noun phrase. Minor inconsistency.

    Tool Count5/5

    Four tools cover the essential operations for a MySQL interaction server: discovery, current context, querying, and schema inspection. Neither too few nor too many.

    Completeness5/5

    The tool set provides full coverage for read-only database interaction: listing sites, querying, and schema inspection. Any write operations are intentionally excluded for safety, so no missing functionality.

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

  • Behavior4/5

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

    No annotations exist, so description fully carries the burden. It accurately describes a read-only list operation, which is transparent for this simple action. No hidden behaviors or 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?

    Single sentence, no wasted words. Efficiently communicates purpose and output.

    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?

    Fully describes what the tool returns (list of sites with running status) without needing output schema. Complete for a simple list operation.

    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?

    Input schema has 0 parameters, so baseline is 4. The description does not need to add parameter info, and it doesn't repeat unnecessary details.

    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 tool lists all available Local WordPress sites and their running status. The verb 'List' and the resource are specific, and it implicitly distinguishes from siblings like mysql_current_site (single site) or mysql_query (queries).

    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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives. The description implies listing all sites, but no when-not or alternative tool mentions.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    Declares 'read-only', implying non-destructive behavior. Without annotations, description carries full burden; lacks details on error behavior, return format, or connection specifics.

    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?

    Single sentence front-loads the action and scope, no wasted words.

    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?

    Lacks output shape description (since no output schema), missing error behavior details. Adequate for simple query but could be more complete for an agent.

    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?

    Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions. Description adds value by restricting sql to allowed commands (SELECT/SHOW/DESCRIBE/EXPLAIN), going beyond schema's generic 'Single read-only SQL statement'.

    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?

    Clear action verb 'Execute', specific object 'read-only SQL query', and context 'Local WordPress database'. Distinguishes from siblings which focus on current site, listing sites, and schema.

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

    Usage Guidelines3/5

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

    Explicitly lists allowed SQL commands (SELECT/SHOW/DESCRIBE/EXPLAIN) indicating read-only usage. However, no guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like mysql_schema for schema exploration.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    No annotations are provided, so the description must carry behavioral transparency. It does not disclose read-only nature, side effects, or auth requirements beyond basic purpose, leaving gaps for a tool that likely performs a safe query.

    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, front-loaded sentence with no extraneous words, effectively conveying the tool's purpose.

    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?

    Given the tool has no parameters, no output schema, and a simple purpose, the description fully explains what it does and what it returns (information and selection method), making it complete.

    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?

    The input schema has 0 parameters and 100% coverage, so the baseline is 4. The description does not need to add parameter semantics as none exist.

    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 retrieves information about the currently connected Local WordPress site, including selection method, which distinguishes it from sibling tools like mysql_list_sites, mysql_query, and mysql_schema.

    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 usage context (when needing current site info) but does not explicitly exclude alternatives or provide when-not scenarios; context is clear enough given sibling differentiation.

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

  • Behavior3/5

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

    No annotations provided, so description must cover behavior. It describes the two modes but lacks details on side effects, authentication, or output format. For a read-heavy tool, this is adequate but not thorough.

    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 tightly written sentences, no superfluous words. Purpose is front-loaded. Ideal conciseness for a simple tool.

    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 the tool's simplicity (1 param, no output schema), the description covers the essential functionality. Minor omission: not specifying output format, but it's not critical for an inspect tool.

    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?

    Schema coverage is 100% for the single parameter. The description adds concrete meaning by explaining the effect of providing the table parameter versus omitting it, going beyond the schema's description.

    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 the tool inspects database schema, with specific behavior: without args lists tables, with table shows columns and indexes. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like mysql_query or mysql_list_sites.

    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?

    Provides clear usage guidance for both modes (with/without args) but does not explicitly mention when not to use or alternatives. The context is clear enough for basic usage.

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