One call, several formats

snapshot

One call, several formats: rendered HTML content and a base64 screenshot (plus optional Markdown and accessibility tree), with the page's status and title. Price: $0.005 a call (3 free calls a day without an API key).

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It discloses the return shape (content, screenshot, optional markdown/accessibility tree, status, title) and useful pricing/auth context ('$0.005 a call, 3 free calls a day without an API key'), but says nothing about failure behavior, rate limits beyond the free tier, or how errors surface for a 22-parameter rendering tool.

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?

Two tightly packed sentences that front-load the multi-format benefit, then append pricing. Every clause carries information, though the pricing detail competes with functional content for the lead position.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a 22-parameter tool with no annotations, no output schema, and 23% schema coverage, the description is far too thin. It explains the return values adequately but leaves the majority of parameters and most behavioral traits undocumented.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is only 23% across 22 parameters, so the description must compensate and largely does not. It only alludes to the formats parameter (content, screenshot, markdown, accessibilityTree) and says nothing about the many undocumented options like cookies, viewport, authenticate, bestAttempt, or request-pattern filters.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a clear purpose: produce rendered HTML content and a base64 screenshot in one call, plus optional Markdown and accessibility tree, with status and title. The 'one call, several formats' framing implicitly distinguishes it from the single-format siblings (screenshot, markdown, pdf), but it never names or routes to them explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The 'one call, several formats' framing implies the usage condition (use when you want multiple outputs at once rather than separate single-format calls), but there is no explicit when-to-use, when-not, or named alternative guidance. An agent must infer the selection rule from the tagline.

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