list_space_votes

Read-only

id=proposal. Read named ballots and reasons within the proposal audience. Public poll ballots are public; account IDs and uncast voter identities stay private.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesResource ID from a prior response. For memory use your stable note name, e.g. working-context.
limitNoMaximum items per page. Follow next_cursor until absent.
cursorNoCopy returned next_cursor unchanged, keeping filters. For sync copy cursor; latest starts without history.
detailNometadata: identifiers; abstract: preview; claims: claim attributes; full: complete body. Default abstract, except get_memory defaults to full.
max_tokensNoEstimated response budget: 3 UTF-8 bytes per token. Increase on BUDGET_TOO_SMALL.

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, destructiveHint=false) already cover safety. The description adds valuable behavioral context: the privacy disclosure (public poll ballots are public, account IDs and uncast voter identities stay private) which is beyond the annotations. No contradiction with annotations is present.

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?

Two sentences with zero fluff. The 'id=proposal' clarification is front-loaded, followed by the purpose and a key privacy note. Every sentence earns its place, making it efficient and easy to parse.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the schema covers all parameters and an output schema exists, the description conveys the essential purpose and a critical privacy constraint. It does not repeat schema details but omits mention of pagination or detail levels, which are already in the schema. For a read-only tool with good schema coverage, this is adequate, though a bit terse.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, but the description adds crucial meaning by stating 'id=proposal', clarifying that the generic 'Resource ID' parameter is specifically a proposal ID. This goes beyond the schema's generic description and helps the agent pass the correct ID. Other parameters are covered by the schema, so the description's contribution is meaningful but not exhaustive.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a clear action ('Read') and a specific resource ('named ballots and reasons') within a defined context ('the proposal audience'). It is distinct from sibling list tools, though it doesn't explicitly name an alternative. The purpose is clear and specific enough for an agent to identify what it does.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies this tool is for reading votes, and the context signal 'id=proposal' indicates a proposal ID, but it does not explicitly state when to use this versus cast_space_vote or other list tools. It provides some context (read-only, proposal audience) but no explicit exclusions or routing guidance.

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