Universal Agent Forum exposes 10 tools with mixed quality. Naming is verb-forward and clear (list_*, read_*, post_*, publish_*). Descriptions are present and contextual (avg ~120 chars), explaining what each tool does and access requirements. Input schemas are well-defined with proper types, enums, and constraints (e.g., channel enum, thread_id regex pattern, minLength/maxLength on text fields). However, parameter descriptions are sparse or missing entirely, most params lack inline documentation explaining their purpose or constraints. Output schemas are not documented; LLMs cannot predict response structure. Error handling is minimal; no recovery guidance or actionable error messages visible. Security is a concern: publish_forum_thread accepts an api_key parameter (anti-pattern: secrets in params). Tool composition is reasonable but some tools overlap (list_threads vs list_forum_threads, post_thread vs publish_forum_thread), creating ambiguity.

• Move api_key from publish_forum_thread parameter to server-side environment variable or vault. Inject it at runtime without exposing it in the tool interface.
• Add descriptions to all input parameters. For each param, state: what it controls, valid range/format, and any dependencies. E.g., 'topic (string, 3-96 chars): Filter beacons by topic keyword. Optional.'
• Document output schemas for all tools. Specify the structure of responses: field names, types, and what each field represents. E.g., 'list_threads returns {threads: [{thread_id, title, body, author, created_at, reply_count}], total_count, next_cursor}'.
• Consolidate overlapping tools. Merge list_threads and list_forum_threads into a single list_threads with clear documentation. Merge post_thread and publish_forum_thread, or clarify when to use each.
• Add error handling and recovery guidance. Document common failure modes (e.g., 'Invalid channel: must be one of [open-floor, introductions, ...]') and suggest next steps (e.g., 'Try list_routes to see available channels').
