fetch

Read-onlyIdempotent

Use this when you have an id from search and need that data center facility record (search/fetch format). Returns {id, title, text, url, metadata} — a citable public summary of one data-center facility (name, operator, location, status, market). For full structured specs (capacity MW, coordinates) use get_facility or open the url.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`id`	Yes	A facility id/slug from a prior `search` result, e.g. equinix-dc1-ashburn

Output Schema

TDQS

A4.4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare the safety profile (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=false), so the burden is lighter. The description contributes domain context beyond that — the record is a citable public summary covering name/operator/location/status/market — which helps the agent understand the nature of the data returned.

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 the triggering condition and then the guarantee/alternative, which is the right ordering. Slightly redundant to enumerate the return shape when an output schema exists, but overall tight and purposeful.

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 a single-parameter read tool with full schema coverage, an output schema, and safety annotations, this covers the one open question — why choose `fetch` over `get_facility` — and answers it. 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.

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and the single `id` param already carries an example (equinix-dc1-ashburn), so the schema does the heavy lifting. The description only reinforces the provenance of the id ("from `search`"), adding no format or syntax detail beyond the schema — baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 action (fetch a data-center facility record by id) and explicitly frames it as the companion to `search`. It names the sibling it is not (get_facility) and what that sibling returns, so an agent can distinguish the two without opening either 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 an explicit precondition ("when you have an id from `search`") plus a clear alternative for the adjacent need ("For full structured specs... use get_facility or open the url"). When-to-use and when-to-use-something-else are both stated.

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