List content groups

list_content_groups
Read-only

Use this when the user asks which content groups a property has. Lists content groups for a property. Content groups partition the URL space using JSON rules (e.g. prefix matches, regex). Used in the dashboard for page-level aggregations. Not for group traffic: use get_content_group_performance, which counts a page matching several groups in the newest (created_at descending). Sorted by name ascending.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so safety is covered; the description adds ordering behavior ('Sorted by name ascending') and background on how groups resolve for aggregation. It does not mention permissions or result volume/pagination, so it is strong but not complete.

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?

Front-loaded with the trigger sentence and the exclusion, with no wasted preamble. The 'Used in the dashboard for page-level aggregations' clause is marginally expendable but does help the agent reason about group semantics.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Overall adequate: an output schema exists so return shape needn't be explained, annotations cover the safety profile, and usage is unambiguous. The remaining hole is the undocumented siteUrl format, the one thing an agent needs to supply correctly.

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 0% for the single required parameter, so the description must carry the load, and it only implies property scoping via 'for a property'. It never names siteUrl or indicates the expected format (full URL vs. domain), which is required knowledge for a correct call.

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+resource ('Lists content groups for a property') and goes further by explaining what a content group actually is (JSON rules partitioning the URL space, e.g. prefix/regex), so the agent understands the object being listed. The final sentences explicitly distinguish it from get_content_group_performance.

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 which content groups a property has') and names the alternative plus the condition selecting it ('Not for group traffic: use get_content_group_performance'). Both when-to-use and when-not-to-use are covered.

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