Server Quality Checklist

67%
Profile completionA complete profile improves this server's visibility in search results.
  • Latest release: v1.1.1

  • Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a distinct purpose: scaffolding (create, list add-ons, get add-on details), documentation (fetch page, search, list libraries, list ecosystem partners). No overlap.

    Naming Consistency2/5

    First three tools use camelCase (createTanStackApplication, getAddOnDetails, listTanStackAddOns) while last four use lowercase underscores (tanstack_doc, etc.). Also, the first three include verb-noun pattern but the last four lack clear action verbs in names (e.g., tanstack_doc is just a noun).

    Tool Count5/5

    Seven tools is well-scoped for a server covering TanStack Start scaffolding and documentation reference. Not too many, not too few.

    Completeness5/5

    The set covers key scaffolding operations (create, list, get details) and comprehensive documentation access (search, fetch, list libraries, list ecosystem). No obvious gaps for the intended domain.

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

  • Behavior2/5

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

    With no annotations provided, the description bears full responsibility for disclosing behavioral traits. It fails to mention side effects, file system changes, required permissions, idempotency, or the nature of the scaffolded output.

    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, well-structured sentence that front-loads the action and omits any extraneous detail, making it highly efficient.

    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 complexity (10 parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description is too sparse. It does not explain what the tool returns, how it behaves with different parameters, or potential side effects, leaving the agent with insufficient context.

    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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the parameter descriptions, though it does hint that add-ons and options customize the scaffold.

    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 uses a specific verb 'scaffold' and identifies the resource 'TanStack Start application', clearly distinguishing this creation tool from sibling listing and documentation tools.

    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 getAddOnDetails or listTanStackAddOns, nor does it state 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 provided, and the description only says 'List' without disclosing behavioral traits like read-only nature, rate limits, pagination, or what happens with no filters. The agent is left guessing about operation safety and 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, front-loaded with main action, no unnecessary words. Every part earns its place.

    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?

    Adequate for a simple list tool with filters, but missing output description (e.g., what fields are returned). No output schema, so description should clarify return format. Otherwise complete enough for basic use.

    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% (both params described in schema). The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema; baseline 3 is appropriate.

    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 verb 'List' and resource 'TanStack ecosystem partners' with optional filters, distinguishing it from sibling tools like listTanStackAddOns and tanstack_search_docs which target different resources.

    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 when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to sibling tools. The description does not mention alternatives or context for choosing this tool over listTanStackAddOns or other list 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 exist, so the description is the sole source. It indicates a read operation (no destruction), but does not disclose authentication needs, rate limits, or return structure details beyond listing some attributes.

    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 one concise sentence with a parenthetical list, front-loading the purpose. Every word is necessary and clear.

    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, the description should clarify the structure and content of the returned details. It only lists categories (files, dependencies, etc.) without explaining format or behavior in edge cases.

    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 covers both parameters with descriptions and examples. The tool description does not add meaning beyond what the schema provides, so baseline of 3 is appropriate.

    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 verb 'Get detailed information', specifies the resource 'TanStack Start add-on', and lists what details (files, dependencies, options, routes). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like listTanStackAddOns.

    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?

    No explicit guidance on when to use this vs. alternatives like listTanStackAddOns. The name and description imply detailed lookup, but no when-not or exclusion criteria are provided.

    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 fully disclose behavior. It only states the basic action and parameter, omitting details like read-only nature, authentication needs, or return format. Minimal behavioral context is given.

    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 sentence with no unnecessary words. It is as concise as possible while conveying the core purpose.

    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?

    For a simple list tool with one enum parameter and no output schema, the description is largely sufficient. It could be improved by hinting at the return format (e.g., names or IDs), but overall it is adequate for an agent to understand the tool.

    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 coverage is 100% and describes the parameter as 'Project framework' with enum values. The description adds that the list is 'for a given framework', which is slightly redundant. No additional meaning beyond the schema.

    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 lists TanStack Start add-ons for a given framework. The verb 'list' and resource 'add-ons' are specific. It distinguishes from siblings like createTanStackApplication (create) and getAddOnDetails (details).

    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?

    The description implies usage to view available add-ons but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like getAddOnDetails or tanstack_list_libraries. No 'when not to use' guidance is provided.

    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 must cover behavioral traits. It describes the output but does not explicitly state that the operation is read-only or any other constraints. However, 'list' implies non-destructive behavior, which is acceptable for a simple tool.

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

    Conciseness5/5

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

    The description is a single sentence that is front-loaded with the verb and resource. It communicates the essential information without any wasted words.

    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 lists libraries with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description adequately specifies the output content (descriptions, frameworks, links). It is sufficiently complete for a simple listing tool.

    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?

    The input schema has one parameter (group) with 100% coverage, including a description and enum values. The description does not add significant meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 3 applies.

    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 lists all TanStack libraries with specific details (descriptions, frameworks, links). The verb 'list' and resource 'TanStack libraries' are precise, and it distinguishes itself from sibling tools like createTanStackApplication and listTanStackAddOns.

    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?

    The description implies usage for general library listing but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus siblings like tanstack_doc or tanstack_search_docs. No when-not or alternatives are mentioned.

    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?

    Without annotations, the description relies on implying a read operation. 'Fetch full content' suggests no destructive behavior, but no explicit disclosure of potential side effects or prerequisites. Adequate but minimal.

    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, clear sentence with no unnecessary words. It effectively communicates the tool's purpose in a concise manner.

    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?

    For a simple fetch tool with well-described parameters, the description is sufficient. However, it lacks details about the output format (e.g., markdown, HTML), which would improve completeness.

    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?

    The input schema has 100% description coverage with clear parameter meanings. The description adds no extra semantics beyond 'full content' context. Baseline score is appropriate.

    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 verb 'Fetch' and the resource 'full content of a specific TanStack documentation page'. It is specific and distinguishes from siblings like 'tanstack_search_docs' which is for search.

    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 when to use (to fetch full doc content) but does not explicitly state when not to use or mention alternatives. It is adequate for a straightforward fetch tool.

    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?

    With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It explains that the tool returns 'matching pages with titles, URLs, and breadcrumbs', which is useful. However, it does not disclose other behaviors such as whether it is read-only, whether authentication is needed, or any rate limits. For a simple search tool, the description is reasonably transparent but could be improved.

    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 sentence with 15 words, containing no extraneous information. It front-loads the action and clearly states the output. Every word earns its place.

    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 no output schema, the description explains what is returned (titles, URLs, breadcrumbs), which partially covers completeness. However, it does not mention relevance ranking, default behavior of filters, or whether results are from all libraries. For a search tool with 4 parameters and no output schema, the description provides adequate but not exhaustive context.

    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?

    The input schema has 100% description coverage for all 4 parameters, so the schema already documents each parameter's meaning. The tool description adds no extra semantic value beyond the schema. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate given high schema coverage.

    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 verb 'Search' and resource 'TanStack documentation', specifying the output includes titles, URLs, and breadcrumbs. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'tanstack_doc' which likely retrieves a specific document, and 'tanstack_ecosystem' which provides an overview.

    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?

    The description does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives. It only describes what it does, not when it's appropriate or when not to use it. Implied usage is for broad searches, but no guidance on exclusions or comparisons to siblings like 'tanstack_doc' or 'listTanStackAddOns'.

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