get_registry_sources

Read-only

USE BEFORE PRESENTING TRIAL EVIDENCE AS CURRENT OR WORLDWIDE. Returns every upstream registry with its base URL, API type, licence, record count, last successful synchronisation time, degraded flag and live schema-contract verdict. This is how you answer "is this really worldwide, and how old is it?" honestly: a registry that is degraded or has not synchronised recently makes your result partial, and you should label it partial. NEXT: get_trial_stats for the resulting counts, or search_world_trials with an explicit registry when you deliberately want single-registry evidence.

A4.9/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations cover only readOnlyHint and openWorldHint; the description goes well beyond by explaining what the degraded flag and sync timestamp mean for result validity, and imposes a behavioral duty to label results partial. That is genuine operational context an agent could not infer from structured fields.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with the precondition in caps, then the payload, then the routing. Every sentence carries distinct actionable content; nothing is restated from the schema or annotations.

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?

With zero parameters, an output schema present, and read-only annotations, the remaining burden is interpretation guidance, which the description supplies (degraded/stale implies partial evidence). Nothing needed to call or act on the result 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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4; there is nothing for the description to disambiguate. It does note that registry filtering happens downstream via search_world_trials, which usefully rules out a non-existent parameter.

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?

It states a specific verb and resource ('Returns every upstream registry') and enumerates exactly what comes back (base URL, API type, licence, record count, last sync time, degraded flag, schema-contract verdict). It is clearly distinguishable from get_trial_stats and search_world_trials, which are named as follow-ups.

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 opening imperative gives a concrete trigger ('USE BEFORE PRESENTING TRIAL EVIDENCE AS CURRENT OR WORLDWIDE') and the NEXT clause names two alternatives with the exact condition for choosing each, including the deliberate single-registry case.

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