List a bulk job's results

list_bulk_results
Read-onlyIdempotent

One page of per-video outcomes for a bulk job: video id, title, channel, duration, word count and status (ok, cached, or error with a code). Never includes transcript text; every ok or cached video is in the library and free to read again. next_cursor from one page continues to the next. Free.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive and non-open-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely new behavioral context the annotations do not carry: no transcript text is returned, ok/cached results remain in the library, and the call is free.

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?

Four short sentences, front-loaded with what the page contains, followed by the exclusion, the library consequence, pagination, and cost. Every sentence carries distinct information and none is filler.

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?

With an output schema present, the description need not restate the return shape, yet it still covers pagination continuation, cost, and the important negative constraint (no transcript text). An agent has everything it needs to call and interpret the result.

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%, so all three parameters (run_id, limit, cursor) are already documented in the schema. The description restates cursor semantics ('next_cursor from one page continues to the next') without adding format or default detail, matching the baseline-3 case where the schema does the heavy lifting.

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 specific verb and resource ('one page of per-video outcomes for a bulk job') and enumerates the returned fields (video id, title, channel, duration, word count, status). It implicitly separates itself from get_bulk_status by focusing on per-video outcomes, but never names that sibling, so the differentiation is left to inference.

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?

Pagination guidance ('next_cursor from one page continues to the next') and a cost signal ('Free') are given, and the note that ok/cached videos are re-readable implies a follow-up path. However there is no explicit when-to-use statement relative to get_bulk_status or get_transcript, and no exclusions.

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