Fetch a verified Macfax report

get_mac_report
Read-onlyIdempotent

A verified Macfax condition report as structured data: hardware-verified identity, Activation Lock / MDM / serial-match checks, coverage status, and the signing chain. Use when a listing or seller shares a macfax.com/r/ link and the buyer wants the facts behind it. status "superseded" means the same Mac was re-verified more recently under a newer report; treat the payload as historical state, not current.

Tool call template

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint) already disclose no side effects. Description adds value by explaining return format (structured data) and status interpretation ('superseded' means historical state). No contradictions.

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?

Two sentences: first states purpose concisely, second provides usage guidance and status interpretation. No wasted words; front-loaded with key information.

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 one parameter, no output schema, and annotations covering safety, the description fully explains purpose, usage, and status meaning. Nothing missing for an agent to select and invoke 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?

Only one parameter (report_id) with schema description already clear ('8-character report id'). Description doesn't add new info beyond schema, but schema coverage is 100%, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

Description clearly states the tool fetches a verified Macfax condition report as structured data, listing specific components (hardware identity, Activation Lock, MDM, serial-match, coverage, signing chain). It distinguishes from siblings by focusing on a specific macfax.com/r/ link.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explicitly says when to use: when a listing or seller shares a macfax.com/r/ link and the buyer wants facts. Also explains meaning of 'superseded' status. No explicit when-not to use, but context is clear.

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