osirAppGetSource

Read-onlyIdempotent

osirAppGetSource: Get a short-lived signed download URL for an Osir app's current source zip. Use this to make edits to a deployed app without the user re-attaching the project: download, patch the files, then osirAppCreateUpload (PUT the new zip) and osirAppDeploy under the SAME name; the platform rebuilds and, for owned-tier apps, auto-ships the new version to the user's box. Requires authentication.

Input Schema

sessionKeyNoSession key (osk_...) returned by checkDeviceLoginStatus. Pass it on every call when logged in via the in-chat device flow; omit when connected via OAuth.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already mark the operation as read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds useful behavior beyond that: the URL is short-lived and signed, authentication is required, and the platform rebuilds/auto-ships only in the owned-tier flow. No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded, with every sentence earning its place: the purpose, the practical workflow, and the auth requirement. The references to sibling tools are packed in without unnecessary filler.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a two-parameter read-only tool with no output schema, the description is complete: it states what is returned (a signed download URL), why it's needed, how to proceed afterward, and that auth is required. Nothing critical is missing for correct invocation.

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 the schema already documents appName and sessionKey with their formats and requirements. The description doesn't need to add parameter detail; it doesn't add much beyond the auth note, which matches the baseline for 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 names a specific operation — obtaining a short-lived signed download URL for an Osir app's current source zip — and distinguishes it from sibling tools like osirAppList (listing apps) and osirAppDeploy (deploying). The verb 'Get' and the resource 'source zip' are explicit.

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?

It clearly states the intended use case: making edits to a deployed app without user re-attaching, and lays out the follow-up steps (osirAppCreateUpload then osirAppDeploy). It doesn't explicitly enumerate when not to use it, but the workflow is specific enough for an agent to select it over alternatives.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools target distinct resource-action pairs, but there are several overlapping clusters: six domain-suggestion tools (addPrefixToDomain, addSuffixToDomain, generateDomainSuggestions, bulkDomainSuggestions, spinDomainWords, suggestAlternatives) and overlapping account-info tools (getMyProfile, getAccountSummary, getRecentActivity, getMyAuditLogs). Descriptions help, but with 105 tools an agent will regularly face near-identical choices.

Naming Consistency4/5

The dominant convention is verbNoun camelCase (createContact, listDnsRecords, updateNameservers), which is readable and predictable. Deviations exist in the osirApp* and osirSite* families, where the noun precedes the verb, and a few names like suggestAlternatives and spinDomainWords break the pattern.

Tool Count1/5

105 tools is far beyond a coherent MCP server surface; even if the platform genuinely spans domains, DNS, email, VPS, billing, and app hosting, this should be split into focused servers. Many tools are single-purpose getters that add selection overhead rather than earning their place as one integrated set.

Completeness4/5

The covered services have broad CRUD/lifecycle coverage: contacts, DNS, hosts, domains, email, VPS, SSH keys, invoices, and Osir apps all have create/read/update/delete paths. Some registrar-specific operations (e.g., contact reassignment after registration, domain deletion/redemption) are missing, and the sheer sprawl makes coverage hard to verify.
