IT Quality MCP — ITIL 4, COBIT, ISO 20000, ISO 22301, CMMI, and SLA metrics via Model Context Protocol
15 tools with consistent naming (verb_noun pattern) and complete input schemas. Descriptions are present but generic, most lack context on WHEN to use the tool or what distinguishes it from similar tools. Parameter descriptions are minimal (often just restating the name). No output schemas documented. Error handling is basic (validation only, no recovery guidance). All tools are READ_ONLY, reducing risk, but composition and chaining support is weak.

Output schemas not documented. LLMs cannot plan downstream calls or extract required fields (e.g., does get_practice return item_id for chaining to map_controls?). Baseline: 100% of A+ tools document return types.
Descriptions are generic and lack context. Most are 40-70 chars and restate the name without explaining WHEN to use the tool or how it differs from similar tools (e.g., search_practices vs search_by_domain). Baseline: A+ tools average 194 chars with clear selection criteria.
Parameter descriptions are minimal. Most just restate the parameter name (e.g., 'The framework identifier (required)') without explaining format, constraints, or examples. Baseline: A+ tools average 72 chars per param description with actionable constraints.

Search for practices, processes, controls across frameworks using full-text search
No error recovery guidance. Error responses return validation failures but do not guide the LLM on next steps (e.g., 'target_framework is required' does not suggest calling list_frameworks first). Baseline: A+ tools include recovery hints.
Tool composition weak. No evidence that output fields match input parameters of downstream tools. E.g., does search_practices return item_id in a format map_controls accepts? Chaining requires explicit field alignment.
