add-tools

Add tools to your agent and grant required permissions in databricks.yml. Use when: (1) Adding MCP servers, Genie spaces, vector search, or UC functions to agent, (2) Permission errors at runtime, (3) User says 'add tool', 'connect to', 'grant permission', (4) Configuring databricks.yml resources.

Quality

Content

76%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

Actionable and well-organized content with executable code and clear navigation to examples, but the deploy workflow lacks an explicit validation checkpoint, capping workflow clarity. Verifying the referenced examples/ files exist would strengthen progressive disclosure.

Suggestions

Add an explicit validation step before deploy (e.g., run `databricks bundle validate` or confirm the agent starts) so the destructive/batch deploy workflow clears the workflow_clarity cap of 3.

Confirm the files listed in the resource-type table actually exist under examples/ and reference them with links so progressive disclosure can score higher.

Move the duplicate YAML block for custom MCP servers fully into examples/custom-mcp-server.md to reduce inlined redundancy and improve conciseness.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean with executable code blocks and minimal concept explanation, though the resource-type table and repeated YAML blocks add some length that could be trimmed by deferring more to the examples/ directory.

4 / 5

Actionability

Provides copy-paste ready Python and YAML snippets with concrete resource names, permission values, and a CLI version requirement, covering the common MCP and custom-app cases fully.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear three-step sequence (add server, grant access, deploy) is present, but the deploy step involves a bundle change with no validation checkpoint before deploy, and the rubric caps destructive/batch operations without validation at 3.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Good structure with a resource-type table pointing to the examples/ directory and cross-references to sibling skills, but the examples/ directory is referenced without confirming the files exist and some YAML detail is inlined that could live in those files.

Description

80%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, well-structured description that clearly states what the skill does and when to use it with concrete trigger phrases. Minor overlap risk with related databricks skills keeps it just short of a perfect distinctiveness score.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (adding tools/granting permissions in databricks.yml) and several concrete actions like adding MCP servers, Genie spaces, vector search, and UC functions, though it leans on category lists rather than fully enumerated verbs.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (add tools and grant permissions in databricks.yml) and 'when' via a numbered 'Use when' clause with concrete trigger scenarios.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural phrases users would say ('add tool', 'connect to', 'grant permission') plus resource names (MCP servers, Genie spaces, vector search), missing only a few common synonyms or file extensions.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Tied to a specific niche (databricks.yml permissions, agent tool integration) with distinct triggers, but shares tooling vocabulary with the sibling create-tools/deploy skills, creating minor overlap risk.
