Jump on the Trend

Get one trend

Read-onlyIdempotent

Everything about one trend: what it is and where it came from, the original clip, the sound, who can star, the versions and prices, photo tips, ideas for who to cast, common questions, and the page link where the person adds their photo for a free preview.

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description's real contribution is enumerating response contents (clip, sound, cast, versions/prices, FAQ, preview link), which is valuable because no output schema exists, but it says nothing about behavior when the trend is not found or what errors look like.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is a single front-loaded sentence, which is good structure, but the tail drifts into marketing-style padding ('ideas for who to cast, common questions, and the page link where the person adds their photo for a free preview'). The content inventory could be tightened without losing information.

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?

With no output schema, the description carries the response-shape burden and does so thoroughly, so an agent knows what it will get back from a known-identifier lookup. Missing pieces are minor: no mention of not-found behavior and no routing against the many sibling tools.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100% and the schema already explains that 'trend' accepts an id (slug), a name, or a page URL. The description adds no additional meaning about identifier resolution or precedence between the three accepted forms, so it earns only the baseline.

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 opening clause 'Everything about one trend' plus the inventory of contents makes it clear this is a full-detail retrieval for a single trend, which distinguishes it from list/search siblings like list_categories, search_trends, and top_trends. It never names an explicit verb ('retrieve', 'return'), so the action is inferred rather than stated, and the sibling 'fetch' is not differentiated.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and no sibling is named despite having seven alternatives including search_trends, fetch, and top_trends. An agent must infer from 'one trend' that this is the detail lookup for a known trend versus the discovery tools, which is a reasonable but unstated inference.

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