Idempotent

Save data the agent will need to reuse later — across this conversation or across sessions. Use when you discover something worth carrying forward (a resolved ticker, a target address, a user preference, a research subject) so you don't have to look it up again. Stored as a key-value pair scoped by your identifier. Authenticated users get persistent memory; anonymous sessions retain memory for 24 hours. Pair with recall to retrieve later, forget to delete.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The description adds behavioral context beyond the annotations: persistence differences for authenticated users, 24-hour retention for anonymous sessions, and scope by identifier. It does not contradict the idempotentHint or readOnlyHint annotations. It lacks details on overwrite behavior or errors, but idempotence is already annotated, and the added storage context is valuable.

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 four sentences, each serving a distinct purpose: core function, usage guidance, storage details, and pairing with related tools. It is front-loaded with the primary action, avoids redundancy, and contains no 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?

Given the simple two-parameter tool with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers all essential aspects: purpose, when to use, storage behavior, retention, and related tools. It leaves no significant gaps for an agent to know how to select and invoke this 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 schema description fully covers both parameters (key and value) with examples. The description adds usage context but does not significantly expand parameter semantics beyond the schema. Since schema coverage is 100%, the 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 tool saves data for reuse, specifies the key-value storage format, and distinguishes itself from the sibling tools recall and forget by naming them as counterparts. The verb 'save' and resource 'data' are specific, and examples of content (ticker, address, preference) clarify the purpose.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It explicitly states when to use the tool ('Use when you discover something worth carrying forward') and provides concrete examples. It also names the alternatives (recall for retrieval, forget for deletion), giving clear guidance on when to use this tool versus related ones.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are nearly identical routers, the six polymarket tools cover similar prediction-market territory with fuzzy boundaries, and the deps.dev tools (package/version/dependencies/query/scan_dependency) all deliver dependency metadata. An agent would frequently need the lengthy descriptions to pick the right one.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names mix several conventions: noun-only names (package, version, query, project, dependencies), verb_noun names (scan_dependency, validate_claim, resolve_entity), and family-prefixed names (ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*, pipeworx_*). There is no single consistent pattern across the set.

Tool Count2/5

With 36 tools, the server is well past the 'heavy' threshold. The scope is also sprawling: general data querying, dependency lookup, memory management, subscriptions, prediction markets, claim verification, and AI-visibility scanning. Many tools could be consolidated or moved to separate servers.

Completeness3/5

The tool set is individually broad and covers many workflows, but the server's stated identity ('Deps Dev') does not match the dominant Pipeworx data surface, creating an unclear core purpose. Within the dependency sub-domain it is fairly complete, and the data-research workflows have decent coverage, but gaps like subscription updates and true deps.dev ecosystem coverage suggest the surface is improvised.
