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

  • Behavior1/5

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

    With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavioral traits. It only says 'placeholder implementation', failing to describe what 'computed styles' entails, whether the call is destructive, or any side effects. This is severely lacking.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it sacrifices necessary information for brevity. Every word should earn its place; here, '(placeholder implementation)' is not helpful.

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

    Completeness1/5

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

    Given the tool has one parameter, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is required to be complete. It is not; it omits what computed styles are, what the output looks like, and any usage context.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    The schema shows one required parameter 'node_id' with no description. The tool's description adds no meaning beyond the schema, and with 0% schema description coverage, the description should compensate but does not.

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

    Purpose3/5

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

    The description states a specific verb and resource ('get computed styles'), but qualifies it as '(placeholder implementation)', which undermines clarity. It differentiates from siblings like 'get_document', but the placeholder status may confuse the agent about actual functionality.

    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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives or when not to use it. The description does not mention any prerequisites or exclusions.

    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 the burden of behavioral disclosure. 'Placeholder implementation' suggests incomplete functionality but does not specify what actually happens (e.g., returns null, throws error, partial result). The behavior is opaque.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is extremely concise at 5 words, but it sacrifices necessary detail. It is not efficiently informative; it earns its place only to state the resource and placeholder nature. A 3 is appropriate for minimalism without substance.

    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 the absence of output schema and annotations, the description should provide more context about return values, error states, and side effects. The 'placeholder' note partially addresses completeness but leaves major gaps for a tool with one parameter and no other structured documentation.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    The sole parameter 'depth' has a default of 1 and no description in the schema (schema coverage 0%). The description adds no explanation of what depth means or how it affects the result. This leaves the agent without critical information to correctly invoke the tool.

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

    Purpose3/5

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

    The description states it gets a DOM document, which is specific. However, 'placeholder implementation' implies it may not be fully functional, creating ambiguity about what the tool actually does. It distinguishes from siblings like 'get_computed_styles' but lacks clarity on its current state.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'get_computed_styles' or 'get_console_logs'. There is no mention of prerequisites or scenarios where it should be avoided.

    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 exist, so the burden falls on the description. The phrase 'placeholder implementation' indicates incomplete or non-functional behavior, but no side effects, safety, or return expectations are disclosed.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it is too brief to be fully effective. It does not waste words but lacks sufficient detail.

    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 output schema, no annotations, and a placeholder implementation, the description is insufficient. An agent cannot determine what this tool returns or if it is usable.

    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 zero parameters and schema description coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter info, but with no parameters, baseline 4 is appropriate.

    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 states 'Get performance metrics' which is a specific verb and resource, but the qualifier '(placeholder implementation)' undermines clarity about actual functionality. It does not distinguish from sibling tools like get_all_cookies or get_computed_styles.

    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 on when to use this tool or when to avoid it. The placeholder status is mentioned but not explained in terms of limitations or alternatives.

    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?

    The description mentions remote debugging but lacks detail on practical effects: e.g., does it open a visible window? Is it blocking? What happens if Chrome is already running? With no annotations, the description carries full burden and is insufficient.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is extremely concise (a single sentence), which is efficient but misses essential details. It is not structured with bullet points or sections to aid readability.

    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 the presence of three parameters and an output schema (likely returning connection details), the description is too sparse. It does not explain return values, parameter effects, or any usage context beyond the basic action.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    The description provides zero information about the three parameters (port, headless, chrome_path). Since schema_description_coverage is 0%, the description must compensate, but it adds no meaning beyond the schema's names and types.

    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 action (Start Chrome) and the key feature (remote debugging enabled). However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'start_chrome_and_connect', which likely performs a similar initial step but includes an immediate connection.

    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 versus alternatives. For instance, it does not indicate that 'start_chrome_and_connect' might be preferred for a combined start-and-connect workflow, or that this tool is standalone for manual connection later.

    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?

    With no annotations, the description carries full burden but fails to disclose key behaviors: what happens if Chrome is already running, whether it modifies existing instances, or what the return value contains. The existence of an output schema is not leveraged.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is very concise (one short sentence), which is efficient, but it lacks structure or any breakdown of the operation. It borders on under-specification rather than true conciseness.

    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 the tool combines two distinct operations (start and connect), the description is incomplete. It does not cover error scenarios, prerequisites (e.g., Chrome installation), or the nature of the connection. The output schema exists but is not referenced.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    Schema description coverage is 0%, yet the description does not explain any parameter (url, port, headless). Default values and required fields are not clarified, leaving the agent to guess their meaning and usage.

    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 combines starting Chrome and connecting in one operation. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'start_chrome' and 'connect_to_browser' by implying combined functionality, but lacks specificity about what 'start' and 'connect' entail.

    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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus the separate siblings. There is no mention of prerequisites, when not to use it, or scenarios better suited for individual tools.

    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 exist, so description must fully explain behavior. It only says 'placeholder implementation', suggesting incompleteness, but fails to disclose what the tool actually does or its limitations.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    Very short, but the 'placeholder implementation' note adds necessary caveat while being somewhat vague. Could be more informative without adding length.

    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, no output schema, and a bare description, the tool is incomplete. It does not explain return values, behavior, or reliability.

    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?

    Input schema is empty with 0 parameters, and schema description coverage is 100%. Baseline for such cases is 3. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning but the schema is trivial.

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

    Purpose3/5

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

    The description states 'Get all cookies' which is a clear verb+resource, but the 'placeholder implementation' qualifier reduces confidence and clarity. It distinguishes from sibling tools which do not mention cookies.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. No context provided about prerequisites or appropriate use cases.

    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?

    The description only says 'navigate' with no details on page load behavior, error handling, or whether it waits for navigation to complete. No annotations are provided to offset this lack of transparency.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single sentence, appropriately concise for a simple tool. However, it could benefit from slight expansion without sacrificing brevity.

    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 the tool has an output schema (not shown) and only one parameter, the description is still too sparse. It lacks context on prerequisites, allowed URLs, or navigation behavior.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    With 0% schema description coverage, the single 'url' parameter is completely undocumented. The description adds no information about expected format, protocols, or restrictions.

    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 'navigate' and the resource 'URL', making the tool's purpose straightforward. However, it does not differentiate from siblings that also involve browser actions like connect_to_browser.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Siblings like connect_to_browser or start_chrome_and_connect are prerequisites but not mentioned.

    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 provided, so the description must carry the full burden. It only says 'Connect' with no details on side effects, permissions, state changes, or failure modes. The behavioral impact is entirely opaque.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness3/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is short and front-loaded, but it is under-specified. It earns its place by stating the purpose, but misses essential details that could be added without much verbosity.

    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 the tool's simplicity (one parameter, output schema exists), the description is incomplete. It does not explain return values, prerequisites, or how it differs from similar tools. The output schema could fill gaps, but the description itself is lacking.

    Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

    Parameters1/5

    Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

    The single parameter 'port' has a default but no description in the schema or tool description. Schema description coverage is 0%, and the description adds no meaning—it doesn't explain that port is the debugging port or how it should be set.

    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 action ('Connect') and the resource ('a running Chrome instance'). It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'start_chrome' and 'start_chrome_and_connect' which deal with starting the browser, not connecting.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites (e.g., Chrome must already be running) or scenarios where connecting is preferred over starting a new instance.

    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?

    The 'placeholder implementation' note discloses incomplete behavior, which is useful. However, without annotations or further detail, the description does not reveal return format, side effects, or reliability beyond the placeholder hint.

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single sentence, concise and front-loaded. No unnecessary words, though it could be more informative without losing brevity.

    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 the lack of output schema and annotations, the description should explain return values and behavior. 'Placeholder implementation' gives a hint but is insufficient; the agent cannot determine how to use the tool effectively.

    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 tool has zero parameters, so the schema fully covers parameter semantics. The description does not need to add meaning beyond what the schema provides, meeting the baseline for 0 parameters.

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

    Purpose3/5

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

    The description states 'Get network requests' which is a clear verb+noun pair, but the parenthetical 'placeholder implementation' introduces ambiguity about whether the tool actually works, reducing clarity.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool versus sibling tools like get_console_logs or get_performance_metrics. The description fails to specify context or alternatives.

    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?

    With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses the tool is a 'placeholder implementation', signaling it may not be fully functional. However, it does not specify what happens when called (e.g., returns logs, errors, or empty output).

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is very short (one sentence) but includes the necessary purpose and a caveat. Could be more informative without being verbose, but it avoids waste.

    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 the tool has zero parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description should provide more context about what 'console logs' means, the return format, and whether it requires a browser connection. Acknowledging it as a placeholder indicates incompleteness.

    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 no parameters, so description need not add param info. Baseline is 4, and the description does not add anything beyond that, which is acceptable.

    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 the resource 'console logs', indicating the tool retrieves console logs. However, the qualifier 'placeholder implementation' adds uncertainty about functionality. It distinguishes from sibling 'clear_console' which clears logs.

    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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'clear_console' or when to avoid it. The description does not mention prerequisites, contexts, or exclusions.

    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?

    The description discloses it is a placeholder implementation, which suggests limited or incomplete functionality. With no annotations, the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden; it partially addresses it but lacks specifics on what happens when called (e.g., whether it truly clears logs or does nothing).

    Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is a single, concise sentence that is front-loaded with the key action. However, it omits usage guidance and behavioral details, which would improve value without adding much length.

    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?

    Given the tool has no parameters, no output schema, and a straightforward action, the description is minimally complete. The placeholder note adds necessary context about reliability, but it does not explain the impact (e.g., logs are lost) or whether the tool is functional. Sibling tools like get_console_logs provide related context but description could be more 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?

    There are no parameters, and the schema coverage is 100% (trivially). The description adds no parameter information, but baseline for zero parameters is 4. The action is simple with no inputs, so no additional semantics needed.

    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 action 'Clear console' and includes the verb 'clear' with resource 'console'. It is distinct from sibling tools like get_console_logs. However, the note '(placeholder implementation)' may reduce confidence and clarity about actual functionality.

    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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, or any prerequisites. The description does not mention context or exclusions, leaving the agent without direction beyond the basic action.

    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?

    With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states only 'Get current connection status', implying a read-only operation but offers no details on response behavior (e.g., what happens if disconnected), error handling, 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.

    Conciseness4/5

    Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

    The description is very concise with four words forming a complete sentence. It is front-loaded and wastes no words. However, it is so brief that it might be considered under-specified rather than efficiently concise, missing opportunities to add value.

    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 (zero parameters, no nested objects) and the presence of an output schema, the description is essentially complete. It does not need to explain return values, but it could clarify what 'connection status' means. Overall adequate for the complexity.

    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?

    There are no parameters, and the empty input schema is fully covered by the description. The description adds contextual meaning by specifying 'current connection status', but does not elaborate on the nature of the status value. Baseline for zero parameters is 4, but the lack of semantic depth reduces it to 3.

    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 'Get current connection status' uses a specific verb 'Get' and clearly identifies the resource 'connection status'. It differentiates itself from siblings like 'connect_to_browser' which establish connections, making its purpose distinct and unambiguous.

    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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of context, prerequisites, or when to avoid it, leaving the agent without direction for selection.

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