Get the importable loadout that players actually ran to kill a raid boss (or clear an M+ dungeon), aggregated from Warcraft Logs and the M+ leaderboards, for a class/spec. Pass a boss/dungeon name, or a general all-round build for the whole content: "All Bosses" for a raid (set difficulty to normal/heroic/mythic), or "All Dungeons" for M+ (set difficulty to "mythic_plus"). Returns the modal build string, sample size, and per-choice pick frequencies.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations provided the description carries the full burden, and it does real work: it identifies data sources, explains that results are aggregated/modal, and discloses the return payload (modal build string, sample size, per-choice pick frequencies). It stops short of stating rate limits, caching, or what happens when a boss/spec yields no data, but the read-only, non-destructive nature is evident.

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?

The core action and scope are front-loaded in the first clause, with the parameter special-cases following. It is dense and slightly long for a store listing, but nearly every clause adds operational detail rather than filler.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a four-parameter lookup with no output schema, the description supplies the missing pieces: sentinel content names, the difficulty/content mapping, and the shape of the returned data. An agent could invoke it correctly without opening the schema, leaving only minor unknowns such as miss-handling.

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 only 25%, so the description must compensate, and it does: it clarifies content_name's sentinel values and maps difficulty values to content type (normal/heroic/mythic for raids, 'mythic_plus' for dungeons). Only class/spec are left unexplained, though their meaning is self-evident.

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 and resource ('Get the importable loadout that players actually ran') and pins down scope with data provenance ('aggregated from Warcraft Logs and the M+ leaderboards'). The emphasis on empirically-observed player builds implicitly separates it from the sibling generate_build (synthetic) and decode_build (parse a string).

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?

It gives concrete usage: pass a boss/dungeon name, or use the sentinel values 'All Bosses' / 'All Dungeons' with the matching difficulty. It clearly explains the raid-vs-M+ branching, but it does not name sibling tools or state when a different tool (e.g. generate_build) is preferable.

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