Clarvia AEO Check
Overview
Before adding any MCP server, API, or CLI tool to your agent workflow, use Clarvia to score its agent-readiness. Clarvia evaluates 15,400+ AI tools across four AEO dimensions: API accessibility, data structuring, agent compatibility, and trust signals.
Prerequisites
Add Clarvia MCP server to your config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"clarvia": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "clarvia-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
When to Use This Skill
- Use when evaluating a new MCP server before adding it to your config
- Use when comparing two tools for the same job
- Use when building an agent that selects tools dynamically
- Use when you want to find the highest-quality tool in a category
How It Works
Step 1: Score a specific tool
Ask Claude to score any tool by URL or name:
Score https://github.com/example/my-mcp-server for agent-readiness
Clarvia returns a 0-100 AEO score with breakdown across four dimensions.
Step 2: Search tools by category
Find the top-rated database MCP servers using Clarvia
Returns ranked results from 15,400+ indexed tools.
Step 3: Compare tools head-to-head
Compare supabase-mcp vs firebase-mcp using Clarvia
Returns side-by-side score breakdown with a recommendation.
Step 4: Check leaderboard
Show me the top 10 MCP servers for authentication using Clarvia
Examples
Example 1: Evaluate before installing
Before I add this MCP server to my config, score it:
https://github.com/example/new-tool
Use the clarvia aeo_score tool and tell me if it's agent-ready.
Example 2: Find best tool in category
I need an MCP server for web scraping. Use Clarvia to find the
top-rated options and compare the top 3.
Example 3: CI/CD quality gate
Add to your CI pipeline using the GitHub Action:
- uses: clarvia-project/clarvia-action@v1
with:
url: https://your-api.com
fail-under: 70
AEO Score Interpretation
| Score | Rating | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 90-100 | Agent Native | Built specifically for agent use |
| 70-89 | Agent Friendly | Works well, minor gaps |
| 50-69 | Agent Compatible | Works but needs improvement |
| 30-49 | Agent Partial | Significant limitations |
| 0-29 | Not Agent Ready | Avoid for agentic workflows |
Best Practices
- ✅ Score tools before adding them to long-running agent workflows
- ✅ Use Clarvia's leaderboard to discover alternatives you haven't considered
- ✅ Re-check scores periodically — tools improve over time
- ❌ Don't skip scoring for "well-known" tools — even popular tools can score poorly
- ❌ Don't use tools scoring below 50 in production agent pipelines without understanding the limitations
Common Pitfalls
Problem: Clarvia returns "not found" for a tool Solution: Try scanning by URL directly with
aeo_score— Clarvia will score it on-demandProblem: Score seems low for a tool I trust Solution: Use
get_score_breakdownto see which dimensions are weak and decide if they matter for your use case

Qdrant Memory Integration
Before executing complex tasks with this skill:
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "<task summary>"
- Cache hit? Use cached response directly — no need to re-process.
- Memory match? Inject
context_chunksinto your reasoning. - No match? Proceed normally, then store results:
python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \\
--content "Description of what was decided/solved" \\
--type decision \\
--tags clarvia-aeo-check <relevant-tags>
Agent Team Collaboration
- This skill can be invoked by the
orchestratoragent via intelligent routing. - In Agent Teams mode, results are shared via Qdrant shared memory for cross-agent context.
- In Subagent mode, this skill runs in isolation with its own memory namespace.
Local LLM Support
When available, use local Ollama models for embedding and lightweight inference:
