Get a change

get_change
Read-onlyIdempotent

One proposed or decided change with before, after, reason, status, result and via (portal, link or autopilot; null while open). Read only; approval happens in Vibeking.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true and openWorldHint=false, so 'Read only' largely restates structured data. The real added value is disclosing return-field semantics, notably 'via (portal, link or autopilot; null while open)', which is behavior the agent could not otherwise know — but the description stops short of explaining what status/result values look like.

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 dense sentences, front-loaded with what is returned and terminated by a scope constraint. The parenthetical about 'via' is compact and informative rather than wasteful; nothing needs trimming.

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 single-record getter with one fully documented parameter and no output schema, enumerating the returned fields and the null-while-open case is close to sufficient. Minor gaps remain: no description of the status/result value space and no note on what happens for an unknown or malformed change_id.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and the schema itself explains that change_id is 'as returned by propose_ad_change, propose_post or list_changes'. The description adds no additional syntax, format, or error-condition detail beyond that, so the baseline 3 applies.

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?

Clear specific verb-resource pair: retrieves 'one proposed or decided change' and enumerates the fields it carries (before, after, reason, status, result, via). The singular 'One' implicitly contrasts with list_changes but never names it, so sibling differentiation relies on inference.

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?

Usage is only implied by 'One ... change' plus the required change_id. It does provide a genuine exclusion — 'approval happens in Vibeking' tells the agent not to look for an approve action here — but it never states the natural complement, e.g. use list_changes to browse or propose_ad_change to create one.

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