Implementation Reference

  • Core handler function that proxies tool calls, including 'get_district_municipalities', to the external API https://mcp.xiaobenyang.com/api by sending the toolName and arguments.
    const calcXiaoBenYangApi = async function (fullArgs: Record<string, any>) {
        // 发起 POST 请求
        let response = await fetch('https://mcp.xiaobenyang.com/api', {
            method: 'POST',
            headers: {
                'XBY-APIKEY': apiKey,
                'func': fullArgs.toolName,
                'mcpid': mcpID
            },
            body: new URLSearchParams(fullArgs)
        });
        const apiResult = await response.text();
    
        return {
            content: [
                {
                    type: "text",
                    text: apiResult // 将字符串结果放入 content 中
                }
            ]
        } as { [x: string]: unknown; content: [{ type: "text"; text: string }] };
    };
  • Wrapper handler function that prepares arguments with toolName and calls the core API proxy for tools like 'get_district_municipalities'.
    const handleXiaoBenYangApi = async (args: Record<string, any>, toolName: string) => {
        // 校验aid是否存在
        if (toolName === undefined || toolName === null) {
            throw new Error("缺少必要参数 'aid'");
        }
        // 合并参数
        const fullArgs = {...args, toolName: toolName};
        // 调用API
        return calcXiaoBenYangApi(fullArgs);
    };
  • src/mcp.ts:90-132 (registration)
    Dynamic registration loop that fetches tool definitions from https://mcp.xiaobenyang.com/getMcpDesc (for mcpID 1777316659371011), parses schemas, and registers each tool (including 'get_district_municipalities') using the generic handler.
    for (const apiDesc of apiDescList) {
        let inputSchema = JSON.parse(apiDesc.inputSchema);
        const zodDict: Record<string, z.ZodTypeAny> = {};
    
        Object.entries(inputSchema.properties).forEach(([name, propConfig]) => {
            let zodType;
            let pt = (propConfig as { type: string }).type;
            switch (pt) {
                case 'string':
                    zodType = z.string();
                    break;
                case 'number':
                    zodType = z.number();
                    break;
                case 'boolean':
                    zodType = z.boolean();
                    break;
                case 'integer':
                    zodType = z.int32();
                    break;
                case 'array':
                    zodType = z.array(z.any());
                    break;
                case 'object':
                    zodType = z.object(z.any());
                    break;
                default:
                    zodType = z.any();
            }
    
            if (inputSchema.required?.includes(name)) {
                zodDict[name] = zodType;
            } else {
                zodDict[name] = zodType.optional();
            }
        });
    
    
        addToolXiaoBenYangApi(
            apiDesc.name,
            apiDesc.description ? apiDesc.description : apiDesc.name,
            zodDict);
    }
  • Helper function that registers a tool with the MCP server, using the generic handler and dynamic schema.
    const addToolXiaoBenYangApi = function (
        name: string,
        desc: string,
        params: Record<string, ZodType>
    ) {
        server.registerTool(
            name,
            {
                title: name,
                description: desc,
                inputSchema: params,
            }
            ,
            async (args: Record<string, any>) => handleXiaoBenYangApi(args, name)
        )
    };
  • Dynamic schema parsing from fetched tool definitions, converting JSON schema to Zod types for input validation of tools like 'get_district_municipalities'.
    Object.entries(inputSchema.properties).forEach(([name, propConfig]) => {
        let zodType;
        let pt = (propConfig as { type: string }).type;
        switch (pt) {
            case 'string':
                zodType = z.string();
                break;
            case 'number':
                zodType = z.number();
                break;
            case 'boolean':
                zodType = z.boolean();
                break;
            case 'integer':
                zodType = z.int32();
                break;
            case 'array':
                zodType = z.array(z.any());
                break;
            case 'object':
                zodType = z.object(z.any());
                break;
            default:
                zodType = z.any();
        }
    
        if (inputSchema.required?.includes(name)) {
            zodDict[name] = zodType;
        } else {
            zodDict[name] = zodType.optional();
        }
    });
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states what the tool does ('Get all municipalities') without any information about permissions, rate limits, pagination, error handling, or response format. This leaves critical behavioral traits undocumented.

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 no wasted words. It's front-loaded with the core purpose and appropriately sized for a simple lookup tool, 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 the lack of annotations and output schema, plus 0% schema description coverage, the description is insufficient. It doesn't address behavioral aspects, parameter details, or return values, leaving the agent with significant gaps in understanding how to use this tool effectively.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It mentions 'within a specific district' which implies the 'districtCode' parameter, but doesn't explain what a district code is, its format, valid values, or where to obtain it. This adds minimal semantic value beyond the bare schema.

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 ('Get') and resource ('municipalities within a specific district'), making the purpose understandable. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from similar sibling tools like 'get_district_cities_municipalities' or 'get_municipalities', which could cause confusion about scope.

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 like 'get_district_cities_municipalities' or 'get_municipalities'. It mentions a 'specific district' but doesn't clarify prerequisites, exclusions, or comparative use cases with the many sibling tools available.

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