The collecting link, the gift link, and a message to send with them.

get_links
Read-onlyIdempotent

Returns the link to forward to contributors, the link that plays every message straight through, and a short message the organiser can paste alongside.

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful output context by listing the kind of links and message returned, but it does not explain link expiry, permissions, or why the 'link that plays every message straight through' differs from the collecting link.

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 definition is a single front-loaded sentence that states the return content without filler. It is concise, though the phrase 'the link that plays every message straight through' is somewhat vague and could be sharper.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple one-parameter read tool with no output schema, the description does list the three return artifacts, which partly compensates for the missing output schema. However, it leaves ambiguity about what each link does and provides no usage context, so it is adequate but not fully complete.

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 the single 'book' parameter is already documented in the schema as 'The book’s handle.' The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond that, which is appropriate given the high schema coverage.

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 uses a specific verb ('Returns') and names the three artifacts the tool produces: a contributor-forwarding link, a playback link, and a pasteable organiser message. It is clear what the tool does, but it does not distinguish it from siblings such as their_own_link or send_it_out.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description gives no explicit when-to-use guidance, no conditions for choosing this tool over alternatives, and no prerequisites. Usage is only implied by the stated outputs, leaving the agent to infer when to call it.

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