Read a scan

get_scan
Read-onlyIdempotent

Read the progress and findings of a scan that proofread_url or proofread_site started. Call it with the scanId every 10 seconds and stop when done is true (status is not processing). detail "concise" (default) gives counts and the first 25 findings; "full" gives all. Each finding has the original text, the fix, the type, and the page URL; hidden describes that page row, and surface names head copy (page_title, meta_description, social_title, social_description). siteChecks holds the free Open Graph, favicon, and sitemap checks (null before they ran). reportUrl is the full report page.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds real value beyond that: the done/status completion signal, the polling cadence, the detail-mode output truncation behavior, and what siteChecks holds (null before the checks ran). It does not mention auth requirements or error behavior, keeping it just short of a 5.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loaded with purpose and polling instructions, which is exactly right. However, the second half enumerates return fields (findings contents, hidden, surface, siteChecks, reportUrl) that an output schema already exists to describe, so several clauses are partly redundant.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For an async polling read tool with an output schema, the definition covers the lifecycle (started elsewhere, poll, stop condition), the mode switch, and the shape of the notable nested fields. Nothing needed to call it correctly is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is only 50%, with the enum-bearing 'detail' parameter undocumented in the schema. The description compensates fully: 'concise' (default) returns counts plus the first 25 findings, 'full' returns all. That directly resolves the ambiguity the schema leaves open.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Read the progress and findings of a scan') and ties it explicitly to the sibling tools that create the scan (proofread_url, proofread_site), so an agent can immediately separate it from them.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives concrete operational guidance: pass scanId, poll every 10 seconds, and stop when done is true (status is not processing). It also explains when to pick each detail mode. This is explicit when-to-use and termination guidance that most definitions lack.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
