MCP Server for decomposing ensemble predictions into epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty components using Shannon Entropy and Mutual Information
Single tool with minimal definition quality. Tool name 'decompose_uncertainty' lacks action verb prefix (should be 'analyze_uncertainty' or 'compute_uncertainty'). Description is adequate (89 chars, within 10-1024 range) but lacks WHEN to use guidance. Input schema present but parameter description is vague ('List of probability distributions') without format/constraint details. No output schema documented, LLMs cannot plan downstream calls. No error handling guidance. Tool does one thing well but definition falls short of production standards.
Decompose ensemble predictions into epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty
Tool name lacks action verb. 'decompose_uncertainty' is a noun phrase; should start with verb like 'analyze_uncertainty', 'compute_uncertainty', or 'calculate_uncertainty' to signal intent to LLMs.
Output schema not documented. Tool returns dict with 7 fields (total_uncertainty, aleatoric_uncertainty, epistemic_uncertainty, epistemic_ratio, mean_distribution, recommendation, explanation) but LLMs have no schema to plan downstream calls or extract fields reliably.
Parameter description lacks format/constraint details. 'sample_predictions' description does not specify: required array length, probability sum constraints (must sum to 1.0?), or handling of missing classes across samples.
No error handling guidance. Code raises ValueError for empty input but tool description does not explain what happens on invalid input (e.g., probabilities not summing to 1.0, negative values, mismatched class sets).

Tool description lacks WHEN to use context. Does not explain when epistemic vs aleatoric decomposition is useful, what agent workflows benefit, or how recommendations (FETCH_MORE_CONTEXT, ASK_CLARIFICATION, CONFIDENT_EXECUTION) should drive downstream decisions.
