Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.3.1
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool targets a distinct domain: search vs get details vs stats vs categories. Even similar search tools are clearly separated by resource (AI tools, MCP servers, pipelines, prompts, tutorials, Q&A cases). No ambiguity between tools.
Naming Consistency4/5Most tools follow the verb_noun pattern (e.g., search_ai_tools, get_mcp_details). One minor outlier is catalog_stats (noun_noun), but overall naming is predictable and clear.
Tool Count4/516 tools is slightly above the typical well-scoped range (3-15), but each tool addresses a distinct need within the catalog's domain. The count feels reasonable given the breadth of resources (AI tools, MCP servers, pipelines, prompts, tutorials, Q&A).
Completeness5/5The tool surface covers the full workflow: discovery (search, list categories, popular pipelines), detailed information (get details for each resource type), actionable next steps (get install config, build custom pipeline URL), and troubleshooting (search Q&A cases). No obvious gaps for a read-oriented catalog.

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?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It lists what is returned but does not disclose error handling, performance, or authentication needs. For a read operation, it is adequate but not exemplary.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is well-structured with a lead sentence, argument breakdown, return list, and usage note. It is reasonably concise, though the return fields could be summarized more succinctly.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the low complexity (2 params, no enums, no output schema), the description explains the return structure in detail and provides usage context. It lacks mention of potential errors but is sufficient for the tool's scope.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Despite 0% schema coverage, the description adds meaning by explaining the slug originates from search_pipelines and that lang accepts 'en' or 'ru' with a default, compensating for the schema gap.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it retrieves full pipeline details including title, goal, steps, tools, instructions, prompts, and pricing, distinguishing it from sibling tools like search_pipelines which return a list.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description specifies the slug should come from search_pipelines and indicates the tool is for providing a complete actionable plan, implying it's used after selecting a pipeline. It does not explicitly exclude other scenarios, but guidance is clear.
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 are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It describes the return structure but does not disclose potential authentication needs, rate limits, or behavior when no categories exist. Adequate but could be more transparent.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences and a return format note, all front-loaded with the main action. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple listing tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description covers the purpose, return structure, and usage context. It could mention ordering of categories, but overall it is nearly complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The tool has no parameters, so schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning, but the baseline for 0 parameters is 4. The return format description provides useful context beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it lists AI tool categories with counts, and the name distinguishes it from sibling 'list_mcp_categories' which lists MCP categories. It is a specific verb+resource combination.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states it is useful when the user wants to browse tools by category, providing clear context for when to use. It does not mention when not to use or contrast with siblings, but the guidance is adequate.
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 are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It describes return fields but does not explicitly state that the operation is read-only or non-destructive. While the name implies a retrieval operation, the description could be more transparent about side effects and safety.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise and well-structured: a summary sentence, Args, Returns, and usage guidance. Every part adds value without redundancy, and it is front-loaded with the core purpose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (one parameter, no output schema), the description fully explains the parameter, the return fields, and the usage context. It provides a comprehensive understanding of what the tool offers and when to use it.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has only one parameter (slug) with no description. The description compensates by explaining that slug is from search_ai_tools results and provides examples ('chatgpt', 'midjourney'). This adds significant meaning beyond the schema, though format constraints are not specified.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool retrieves full details for a specific AI tool, including features, pricing, target audience, and USP. It explicitly differentiates from sibling tools like search_ai_tools by mentioning slug from search results, making the purpose distinct.

Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description advises using the tool when the user wants deeper info before signing up, such as pricing breakdown and target audience. It implicitly guides that slug comes from search_ai_tools, but does not explicitly exclude other contexts or list alternatives.
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?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It clearly states the operation returns a full record with specific fields. It does not mention any side effects, but being a read operation, this is sufficient. More explicit read-only indication would improve it.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise, front-loads the purpose in the first sentence, and uses a structured docstring format. Every sentence adds value: purpose, args, returns, and usage guidance.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description adequately covers the return fields and usage context. It could improve by noting that slug comes from search results, but it is largely complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema has 0% description coverage for the single parameter 'slug'. The description only restates 'slug: MCP server slug' in the Args section, adding no semantic meaning beyond the parameter name. For a low-coverage schema, the description should explain what a slug is or how to obtain it.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description specifically states 'Get complete details for a specific MCP server', clearly identifying the verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like search_mcp_servers and get_mcp_install_config by focusing on comprehensive server details.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly guides when to use: 'Use this when the user wants to learn more about a specific MCP before installing, or when they ask...'. This provides clear context and contrasts with sibling search tools.
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 are present, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It describes return values but does not mention whether the tool is read-only, whether it involves any external calls, or if there are any side effects. Given that it's a stats tool, it's likely safe, but transparency is partial.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Description is three sentences, no fluff, front-loaded with purpose and return details. Every sentence is necessary and effective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description adequately explains the return structure and provides example use cases. However, it does not mention any potential latency or caching behavior, which would be helpful for an agent planning calls.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is compact and well-structured: a one-line summary, bullet-style parameter explanations, a note on return format, and a usage hint. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (2 parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description covers the core functionality and usage well. It lacks some peripheral details like error handling or authentication, but these are not critical for this read operation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters5/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description fully compensates by explicitly documenting allowed values for lang ('en' or 'ru') and the range for limit (1-25), along with defaults. This adds significant meaning beyond the bare schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool searches 147+ MCP tutorials across install, configuration, comparison, and build guides. It provides specific verb and resource, and differentiates itself from siblings like 'get_tutorial_details' and 'search_qa_cases'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states when to use this tool with example queries ('how do I install X MCP', 'best MCPs for Cursor', etc.) and recommends following up with 'get_tutorial_details' for full content.
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?
Describes return format and structure, but lacks mention of error handling or side effects. Acceptable for a search tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Front-loaded purpose, then args and returns. Each part adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Covers purpose, usage, parameter semantics, and return format completely for an agent to use, despite no output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Provides examples for query, explains lang and limit with defaults. Compensates well for 0% schema description coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states it searches ready-made AI workflow pipelines with examples. Distinguishes from sibling tools like get_pipeline_details and catalog_stats.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says when to use (multi-step AI goals) and when to switch to get_pipeline_details for full details.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior5/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, but the description fully discloses behavior: it is a search tool that returns a dict with count and results, each result containing specific fields. No side effects or destructive actions are implied, and the return format is fully specified.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is fairly long but well-organized into sections (usage, args, returns). It front-loads the purpose and provides concrete examples. Some repetition could be trimmed, but it remains clear and informative.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description fully describes the return structure including fields like slug, title, problem preview, etc. It covers input parameters, usage context, and output format, leaving no critical gaps for an agent to invoke the tool correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters5/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, but the description provides detailed guidance for all 5 parameters: query examples, server slug example, category with allowed values, lang with allowed values, and limit with range. This adds substantial meaning beyond the bare schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it searches Q&A cases, which are curated solutions to real GitHub Issues. It specifies the structured format (problem, cause, solution) and distinguishes from sibling tools that search for tools, servers, tutorials, etc.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says 'Use this FIRST when the user reports an error or unexpected behavior with an MCP server' and lists common error examples. Does not explicitly state when not to use, but the context is clear and alternatives are implied by the sibling tool names.
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?
Discloses that the MCP server does not run the pipeline directly but returns a prefilled URL. Covers the key behavioral trait without contradiction, though minor missing details like auth or rate limits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Concise and well-structured: opening purpose, builder explanation, args, returns, usage guidance. Every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (2 params, no output schema), the description covers all needed context: when to use, what it returns, and what the builder does. No gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters5/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema coverage, description fully explains parameters: task with example, lang with allowed values and default. Adds substantial value beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the tool creates a deep link to the Pipeline Builder for custom tasks. Distinguishes from sibling by specifying it's only when no pipeline matches.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says when to use (no match from search_pipelines) and instructs to always call search_pipelines first.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
