List posts

posts_list
Read-only

The post queue: proposed drafts, scheduled posts, published history, newest first. For "my best posts": sort views ranks every published post by views (metrics.latest.impressions) across the whole history, narrowed by platform, connectionId, minViews and since. Each reading carries its fetchedAt; fresh re-reads the listed posts' numbers older than 6h from the platforms first (slower, up to ~30s). Needs the read scope.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/non-destructive, yet the description adds real behavior: a fetchedAt per reading, that fresh re-reads numbers older than 6h from the platforms first, that this is slower (up to ~30s), and that the read scope is required. These authentication and latency traits go well beyond the structured safety hints.

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?

Front-loaded with the queue definition, then the alternate ranking mode, then the behavioral caveats. Dense and slightly run-on but every clause carries information; nothing is padding.

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 an output schema present, return values need no explanation, and the description still covers modes, filtering semantics, refresh behavior, latency and the required scope. For an 8-parameter read tool this is complete enough to call correctly.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3, but the description adds the 6h staleness threshold that qualifies fresh and explains that platform/connectionId/minViews/since only narrow the sort=views ranking. That is genuine meaning beyond the schema's own text.

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 (list) and resource (the post queue spanning proposed drafts, scheduled posts, published history) and exposes a distinct mode ('my best posts' via sort=views). An agent can position it against posts_get, posts_create and the other posts_* siblings without opening the schema.

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?

Clearly frames the two usage modes – the default newest-first queue versus sort=views for ranking published posts by impressions – and names the scoping inputs (platform, connectionId, minViews, since). It does not name an alternative sibling or state a when-not, so it stops short of a full routing rule.

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