100Hires - AI ATS & Recruitment Software

hires_download_attachment

Read-only

Download an attachment (resume, candidate file, application file, mail attachment, call recording). Pass the absolute URL returned by another endpoint (e.g. message.attachments[].url, cv.url, resume.url) — it MUST belong to the configured 100Hires API host; other hosts are rejected to avoid leaking the Bearer token. Returns {file_name, mime_type, size, data} where data is base64-encoded bytes. Files larger than 25 MB are rejected up-front (Content-Length check / streaming abort) without being loaded into memory.

Input Schema

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint) already indicate safe read operation. Description adds behavioral details: host validation to prevent token leakage, 25 MB file size limit, and rejection mechanism (Content-Length check/streaming abort). No contradiction.

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?

Highly concise with zero wasted words. Front-loaded with core purpose, then details constraints and return format. Every sentence adds value.

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?

Despite no output schema, description fully specifies return format ({file_name, mime_type, size, data}) and data encoding. Covers all critical context: host restriction, size limit, and rejection behavior. Complete for a download 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?

Single parameter 'url' has 100% schema description coverage. The description adds valuable context: must be absolute URL from API, must belong to configured host, and provides examples of source fields (message.attachments[].url, cv.url).

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?

Clearly states the tool downloads an attachment and lists supported types (resume, candidate file, etc.). Distinguishes from sibling tools like upload_attachment and list_application_attachments by specifying it uses a URL from another endpoint.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explains when to use (after obtaining URL from another endpoint) and includes critical constraints (host validation, file size limit). Does not explicitly state when not to use or list alternatives, but context is clear.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes due to specific entity and action combinations. However, with 133 tools, there is some overlap (e.g., multiple ways to move applications) and similar-sounding operations (e.g., batch_remove_tags vs remove_candidate_tag) that could cause confusion. The detailed descriptions help but the sheer number increases ambiguity.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a consistent 'hires_verb_noun' pattern with snake_case. Verbs are descriptive (create, list, get, delete, update, batch) and nouns match the domain entities (candidate, application, job, etc.). No mixing of conventions like camelCase or inconsistent verb styles.

Tool Count2/5

133 tools is excessive for a typical server scope. While a full-featured ATS requires many operations, this count suggests insufficient aggregation. Tools for similar entities (e.g., multiple update/delete variants) could be consolidated. The high number overwhelms the tool surface and increases complexity.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers core CRUD operations for major entities (candidates, applications, jobs, companies, users, messages, forms, etc.) plus batch operations, webhooks, and advanced features like AI scoring and nurture campaigns. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct reporting/analytics tools), but most workflows can be executed.
