get_order_connection

Read-only

Full detail of ONE standalone order connection, including its Orders Config form. Returns {connectionId, name, channelCode, channelLabel, channelApiCode, status, orderStatus, orderSyncLevel, authType, connected, expired, hasCredentials, authMessage, lastSyncStatus, lastSyncAt, lastSyncMessage, ordersThisMonth, orderConfigFields:[{code, label, description, type, required, options, optionsSource, value, defaultValue, adminOnly, locked, addonCode, upsellUrl}]}. A field with locked:true is a paid feature (buy via upsellUrl) and cannot be set until unlocked; options may be null for a field whose choices are only known after the connection is authenticated. Use orderConfigFields to build a configure_order_connection call. connection_id is from get_order_overview. project_id is OPTIONAL (project_id_required otherwise — then call list_projects).

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, but the description goes further by disclosing nuances like locked fields being paid features and options being potentially null until authentication. It also clarifies the relationship with configure_order_connection, adding significant value beyond structured metadata without any contradiction.

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?

The description is dense but every sentence carries weight: it states the purpose, lists the full output, explains key behaviors, and gives usage context. It is front-loaded with the primary function and structured logically, with no redundant or filler content.

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 the tool's complexity, the description is remarkably complete. It details the entire return payload, explains the meaning of locked and null options, indicates how to derive the required parameter, and instructs on the next step. With no output schema, the description fully carries the return-type burden.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The schema only documents connection_id, but the description compensates fully by explaining the source of connection_id and the conditional requirement for project_id. It adds meaning to both parameters that the schema lacks, especially for project_id which has no description 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?

The description clearly states it provides 'Full detail of ONE standalone order connection' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from listing or overview tools by specifying it retrieves a single connection along with its configuration form. The output structure is explicitly enumerated, leaving no ambiguity about what the tool does.

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?

The description gives precise guidance on when to use this tool: it specifies that connection_id comes from get_order_overview, and explains the optionality of project_id with a conditional call to list_projects. It also directs the agent to use the returned orderConfigFields for constructing configure_order_connection calls, clearly placing this tool in the workflow.

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

A4.2/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Tools are organized around distinct resources (ads, marketplaces, feeds, orders, rules, sources) with clear action verbs, and descriptions explicitly disambiguate near-pairs like get_feed_status vs ad_status or set_feed_filter vs set_feed_attribute_filter. A few similarly named status/action pairs (e.g. ad_status vs get_ad, run_ad_item_action vs run_ad_operation) require careful reading, but overall the purposes are separable.

Naming Consistency4/5

The overwhelming majority follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (list_*, get_*, create_*, set_*, run_*, test_*). Minor deviations like ad_status and marketplace_status (noun-based status tools) and koongo_knowledge break the pattern slightly, but the convention is clearly recognizable and predictable.

Tool Count1/5

At 105 tools, the surface is extreme and far beyond the 50+ threshold, even for a complex e-commerce integration domain. Much of the bloat comes from systematic triplication across ads, marketplaces, and feeds (e.g. three nearly identical map_*_attribute tools, three list_*_items, three get_*_report) that a generic resource parameter could have consolidated.

Completeness4/5

The toolset covers the full lifecycle of feeds, ads, marketplaces, order connections, rules, and imports, including create/read/update/delete, status monitoring, item-level actions, validation, repair, and restore. Minor gaps exist, such as no delete for standalone order connections and limited update capabilities for some entities, but these are workable and do not create dead ends for the core workflows.
