AI Design Blueprint Doctrine

List Application Guides

guides.list

Read-onlyIdempotent

List application guides that show how Blueprint principles apply to engineering challenges (security, evaluation, observability, etc.). Use this to discover which guides exist before drilling in. Prefer guides.search when the user describes a topic or failure mode in natural language. Prefer guides.get when you already know the guide slug and need full detail.

A4.5/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. Description adds no further behavioral traits (e.g., pagination, ordering) beyond stating the listing action, but is consistent with annotations.

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?

Three sentences, each earning its place: purpose, usage context, alternatives. No wasted words, front-loaded with key information.

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 zero parameters, rich annotations, and an existing output schema, the description fully covers what the tool does, when to use it, and alternatives. No gaps.

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?

No parameters exist so schema coverage is 100%. Baseline for 0 params is 4; description does not need to add parameter details.

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 verb 'list' and the resource 'application guides', and specifies the scope ('how Blueprint principles apply to engineering challenges'). Distinguishes from sibling tools by explicitly naming alternatives.

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?

Explicitly says 'Use this to discover which guides exist before drilling in' and provides when to prefer guides.search and guides.get. Contains clear when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance.

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.
