get_live_inventory

Read-onlyIdempotent

Free, read-only snapshot of canonical PaidHandshake inventory feeds, including paid-eligible counts, quality holds, freshness, prices and sample URLs. Use this as the starting point for known feed inventory; use get_free_data_sample for one feed sample, get_published_intelligence_catalog for worker-published products, and search_matches for ad hoc web discovery.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds value beyond that by disclosing cost ('Free'), the snapshot nature (point-in-time view of canonical feeds), and the scope of included metrics.

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, both dense and front-loaded: the first defines the resource and payload, the second routes the agent among siblings. 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 values need no prose, and annotations cover the safety profile. With zero parameters, the description supplies everything an agent needs to choose and invoke this 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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is no parameter semantics to explain; baseline for a parameterless tool is 4.

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 (read-only snapshot of canonical PaidHandshake inventory feeds) and enumerates the payload (paid-eligible counts, quality holds, freshness, prices, sample URLs). This clearly distinguishes it from the sibling catalog and sample tools.

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?

Explicitly positions itself as 'the starting point for known feed inventory' and names three alternatives with the condition each suits: get_free_data_sample for one feed sample, get_published_intelligence_catalog for worker-published products, search_matches for ad hoc web discovery. Nothing is left to inference.

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