Get generation

get_generation
Read-onlyIdempotent

Check whether a video or image is finished and get its URL. Takes the job id that generate_video or generate_image returned; pass kind "image" for an image job. Reports status, the finished file URL, and the credits charged. SIGN-IN REQUIRED: connect this server with OAuth (the host prompts for it), or add an API key header "Authorization: Bearer acd_live_…" created at https://aicontentdrop.com/settings/integrations.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
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 useful behavioral context beyond annotations: OAuth/API-key authentication requirements and the exact reported fields (status, URL, credits charged).

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?

The description front-loads the purpose, then explains the job id, output fields, and auth requirements without excessive detail. The authentication note is somewhat long but earns its place because it is operationally important.

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?

Given the rich annotations, 100% schema coverage, and an output schema, the description is complete enough for an agent to invoke the tool correctly. It covers purpose, input source, output contents, and sign-in requirements.

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 both parameters are already documented. The description reinforces that id comes from generate_video/generate_image and that kind selects image jobs, but it adds little beyond the schema itself.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: checking whether a video or image generation is finished and retrieving its URL. It also names the sibling generators whose job IDs it consumes, which helps distinguish it from list_generations and the generate_* tools.

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?

It clearly says to use the job id returned by generate_video or generate_image and to pass kind "image" for image jobs. It does not explicitly contrast with list_generations, but the usage context is otherwise clear.

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