AI Design Blueprint Doctrine

Get Example

examples.get
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get one curated example by stable slug. Returns title, summary, source-code links, principle coverage (the principle slugs the example demonstrates), difficulty, library/framework, and implementation notes. Use this when you already have the slug from examples.search, a principles.get response, or a guide cross-link; prefer examples.search when filtering by topic / principle / difficulty / library; prefer guides.get when the caller wants a full walkthrough rather than a single reference example. Returns error_payload on unknown slug. Some entries are first-party agentic patterns (entry_kind='pattern') rather than upstream cookbook examples: those additionally return pattern_slug, pattern_family, when_to_use, doctrine_relations (each {principle_id, relation, note, code_ref} where relation is one of structural / default_gap / depends), prior_art, and doctrine_binding_basis. Every other row omits those seven keys.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral details: error handling on unknown slug, conditional output fields for pattern entries vs. cookbook entries, and exactly which keys are present.

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 is information-dense and well-structured, starting with the core purpose and then elaborating on usage and output details. Every sentence is necessary, though slightly long.

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 presence of an output schema and full annotation coverage, the description is exceptionally complete. It covers purpose, usage, error cases, and conditional output, leaving no ambiguity for a single-parameter 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?

Schema coverage is 100% and the slug parameter is well-described in the schema. The description adds extra context by explaining where the slug comes from (search, principles.get, guide cross-links), which aids correct invocation.

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 clearly states the action ('Get one curated example') and the resource ('by stable slug'). It specifies return fields and explicitly distinguishes itself from siblings like examples.search and guides.get, making the purpose unambiguous.

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?

Provides explicit usage guidance: use when slug is known, prefer examples.search for filtering, prefer guides.get for walkthroughs. This helps the agent decide between tools.

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

A4.6/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a clearly distinct purpose. For example, architect.validate vs architect.validate_consensus differ in single-shot vs consensus; handoffs.agency, handoffs.operator, and handoffs.partnership are separated by engagement type. No significant overlap.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tools follow a consistent dot-notation grouping (architect.*, clusters.*, examples.*, guides.*, handoffs.*, me.*, principles.*, signals.*, team.*) with predictable verbs (validate, list, get, search, add, etc.). Minor deviation: some underscore within names (e.g., me.add_evidence) but overall pattern holds.

Tool Count4/5

24 tools is on the higher side but justified given the broad domain spanning validation, certification, learning, handoffs, and feedback. Each tool has a clear role, and the count reflects the platform's comprehensive scope without feeling bloated.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface covers the full workflow (validate → consensus → certify), discovery (principles, clusters, examples, guides), personal progress (learning path, coaching, evidence), handoffs (support, partnership, agency), feedback, and team summaries. No obvious gaps for the stated purpose.
