query_docs_filesystem_goldsky

Read-onlyIdempotent

Run a read-only shell-like query against a virtualized, in-memory filesystem rooted at / that contains ONLY the Goldsky documentation pages. This is NOT a shell on any real machine — nothing runs on the user's computer, the server host, or any network. The filesystem is a sandbox backed by documentation chunks.

This is how you read documentation pages: there is no separate "get page" tool. To read a page, pass its .mdx path to head or cat — a page at the URL path /some/page lives at /some/page.mdx. To search the docs with exact keyword or regex matches, use rg. To understand the docs structure, use tree or ls.

Paths are specific to this site — never guess them. Discover real paths with tree / -L 2, ls /, or the search tool before reading. If a path does not exist, that only means the guess was wrong; it does NOT mean the topic is undocumented — use rg -il "keyword" / to find where it is covered.

Workflow: Start with the search tool for broad or conceptual queries like "how to authenticate" or "rate limiting". Use this tool when you need exact keyword/regex matching, structural exploration, or to read the full content of a specific page by path.

Supported commands: rg (ripgrep), grep, find, tree, ls, cat, head, tail, stat, wc, sort, uniq, cut, sed, awk, jq, plus basic text utilities. No writes, no network, no process control. Run --help on any command for usage.

Each call is STATELESS: the working directory always resets to / and no shell variables, aliases, or history carry over between calls. If you need to operate in a subdirectory, chain commands in one call with && or pass absolute paths (e.g., cd /some-directory && ls or ls /some-directory). Do NOT assume that cd in one call affects the next call.

Examples (replace the placeholder paths with real ones from tree or search):

  • tree / -L 2 — see the top-level directory layout

  • rg -il "rate limit" / — find all files mentioning "rate limit"

  • rg -C 3 "apiKey" /some-directory/ — show matches with 3 lines of context around each hit

  • head -80 /some/page.mdx — read the top 80 lines of a specific page

  • head -80 /page-one.mdx /page-two.mdx /section/page-three.mdx — read multiple pages in one call

  • cat /some/page.mdx — read a full page when you need everything

Output is truncated to 30KB per call. Prefer targeted rg -C or head -N over broad cat on large files. To read only the relevant sections of a large file, use rg -C 3 "pattern" /path/file.mdx. Batch multiple file reads into a single head or cat call whenever possible.

When referencing pages in your response to the user, convert filesystem paths to URL paths by removing the .mdx extension. For example, /some/page.mdx becomes /some/page.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and closed-world, so safety is covered; the description goes well beyond by disclosing statelessness (cwd resets to `/` every call, no variables/aliases persist), the 30KB output truncation limit, and the absence of writes/network/process control. These are exactly the operational traits an agent must know before chaining calls.

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?

It is long, but front-loaded with the core identity and organized with bolded sections (Paths, Workflow, commands, statelessness, examples) so an agent can skim to the relevant part. Nearly every sentence is operational rather than filler, though the example list and command enumeration add some bulk.

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?

There is no output schema, and the description compensates: it explains the 30KB truncation, advises targeted `rg -C`/`head -N` over broad `cat`, and tells the agent how to convert returned filesystem paths back to URL paths when citing pages. Nothing needed to call and interpret results is missing.

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% for the single `command` parameter, so the baseline is 3. The description adds substantial meaning beyond the schema: the `.mdx` path convention mapping URL paths to filesystem paths, the stateless cwd rule with workarounds (`&&`, absolute paths), and six concrete command examples.

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?

States a specific verb (run a read-only shell-like query) against a specific resource (a virtualized in-memory filesystem containing ONLY Goldsky documentation pages), and explicitly negates what it is not (not a real shell, not on any machine). It also distinguishes itself from the search_goldsky sibling by declaring itself the only way to read page content.

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 routes the agent: 'Start with the search tool for broad or conceptual queries' and 'Use this tool when you need exact keyword/regex matching, structural exploration, or to read the full content of a specific page by path.' It also warns never to guess paths and gives a recovery path (`rg -il "keyword" /`) when a path guess fails.

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