Query performance over time

get_query_performance
Read-only

Use this when the user asks how one search query performed day by day. Daily performance for a single search query, optionally restricted to one landing page. Useful for tracking position changes after on-page edits. Not for a ranking of queries: use query_top_queries. query (and pageUrl) must match exactly. Rows run by date, oldest first; days without impressions are absent, not zero. ctr is a 0-100 percentage. Served from the ClickHouse warehouse when available, otherwise the live Search Console API (see dataSource). Date range is optional: omit startDate/endDate to analyze the last 28 settled days (data lags ~2-3 days).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryYes
endDateNoOptional. Window end as YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2026-05-31). You do NOT need to know today's date or the latest available date: omit this and the server uses the latest settled Search Console date (data lags ~2-3 days behind today). Never pass null or the string "null".
pageUrlNo
siteUrlYes
startDateNoOptional. Window start as YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2026-05-03). You do NOT need to know today's date. Omit BOTH startDate and endDate to analyze the last 28 settled days automatically (Search Console data lags ~2-3 days). Never pass null or the string "null".
searchTypeNoSearch type: web (default), image, video, news (the News tab), discover, googleNews (news.google.com), or all (web + image + video + news + discover combined, position impression-weighted, like the app's "All" filter). Discover and googleNews carry no query dimension, so query-level results for them are empty, and no position: it reads null, not 0.web

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations only cover read-only/safety; the description adds substantive behavior: dual data sourcing (ClickHouse vs live GSC via dataSource), a ~2-3 day data lag, default 28-settled-day window, oldest-first row ordering, absent days omitted rather than zeroed, and ctr expressed 0-100. These are exactly the non-obvious traits an agent needs.

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?

Every sentence carries information — trigger, exclusion, exact-match constraint, ordering/absent-day semantics, ctr units, data source, and default window. It is dense and slightly packed into one block rather than split, but there is no filler.

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?

An output schema exists, so return-value explanation is unnecessary; the description supplies everything else an agent needs — defaults, lag, sorting, missing-day semantics, unit for ctr, and data provenance. Nothing material is missing for a read-only analytics 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?

With 50% schema coverage the description adds real meaning: exact-match requirement for query and pageUrl, and the optional date-range default (omit both to get the last 28 settled days). It stops short of covering siteUrl and the searchType caveats in depth, but searchType is documented in the schema.

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 and resource ('Daily performance for a single search query, optionally restricted to one landing page') and explicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling query_top_queries. An agent can identify scope without opening the schema.

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?

Opens with an explicit trigger ('Use this when the user asks how one search query performed day by day'), names a use case (tracking position changes after on-page edits), and names the exclusion with the alternative ('Not for a ranking of queries: use query_top_queries').

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