Independent evidence for agent/tool reliability

Find where agents choose the wrong MCP tool.

Start with a free metadata scan. Get real-model selection evidence for one MCP, then measure whether a description change helps on the same frozen cases.

Start with a free metadata scan.

For a quick description-derived routing check, paste a public MCP URL. This existing scan reads tools/list, generates description-derived routing cases, and never executes your MCP tools. It is generated-readiness evidence, not untouched natural-language or real-model routing accuracy.

Why this matters

Tool access is not the same as tool selection.

Agents can have many tools available and still choose the wrong one before any tool is executed. Descriptions can overlap semantically, so evidence about actual selection adds context that a directory listing cannot provide.

Overlap is real

Similar tools can compete for the same request, especially at semantic boundaries.

Descriptions are not results

Tool metadata explains an interface; it does not show how a model selected among alternatives.

Evidence travels further

Frozen benchmark measurements give users a traceable basis for comparison.

What we measure

A simple evidence trail.

1 · Freeze the benchmark

Inputs are fixed first.

Tool schemas, prompts, expected tools, and model settings are frozen before measurement.

2 · Measure first-tool selection

Selection comes before execution.

The model selects a tool; target business tools are not executed as part of this measurement.

3 · Preserve the evidence

The record stays auditable.

Correct selections, semantic misses, provider failures, provenance, and uncertainty remain distinct.

Evidence strength

Two clear evidence levels.

S1 — Selection-tested

Measured on a frozen constructed benchmark.

S2 — External-selection-tested

Measured against independently sourced external gold cases.

S1 and S2 describe the evidence basis for selection measurements. Neither is a certification of overall MCP quality, transport, business correctness, or safety. See the methodology notes.

Credibility through preservation

Misses are not removed from the record.

When the model chooses the wrong tool, that result remains part of the evidence. The Explorer keeps observed semantic misses attributable to their benchmark, batch, and case while keeping provider failures separate.

Descriptive comparison

Compare evidence, not marketing claims.

Compare measured cases, independent batches, S1/S2 evidence, observed score ranges, semantic miss history, and provenance. The comparison describes evidence amount and history; it does not declare a winner.

Evidence discipline

Built for traceability.

  • Frozen inputs and immutable measurement receipts preserve what was measured.
  • S2 uses independent external gold cases.
  • Provider failures remain separate from semantic misses.
  • Results are retained as measured evidence without post-result cherry-picking.

For developers

Use structured evidence in your own workflow.

Public reliability evidence is available through the API and OpenAPI document.
