clients_read

Read-onlyIdempotent

Read Convocore client accounts (end-user workspaces under an agency/org). Actions: list, get, check_email. For action=list, default mode=compact (id/name/email/orgId). Use mode=full only when you need complete client objects; prefer action=get for one client. Not for organizations (use orgs_read) or CRM leads (use leads_read).

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds value beyond that by disclosing the cost tradeoff (compact is token-cheap, full is heavy) and the default mode applied when omitted. It does not cover pagination behavior, which keeps it below 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.

Conciseness5/5

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

Three tight sentences, front-loaded with purpose, then actions, then mode guidance, then exclusions. Every clause carries actionable routing or cost information; nothing is redundant with the title or annotations.

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?

For a 7-parameter, three-action read tool with no output schema, the description covers the decision points that matter (which action, which mode, when to use a sibling). The remaining omission is pagination semantics and what check_email returns, which are minor for a read-only tool.

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?

With only 43% schema coverage, the description carries real weight: it explains the mode enum and its default, ties email to check_email, and implies clientId via 'prefer action=get for one client'. page, pageSize and clientId still lack any description, so a small gap remains.

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 Convocore client accounts') and immediately disambiguates the resource as 'end-user workspaces under an agency/org'. It enumerates the three supported actions and explicitly names the sibling tools it is not (orgs_read, leads_read), so an agent can distinguish it without opening the schema.

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 explicit routing rules: default to mode=compact for lists, escalate to mode=full only when complete objects are needed, and use action=get for a single client. It also names two exclusions with the correct alternatives (orgs_read for organizations, leads_read for CRM leads).

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