Search articles

search_articles
Read-onlyIdempotent

Performs case-insensitive full-text search across published articles. Returns matching articles with summary metadata, category, tags, and URLs (no body markdown). Use it when the user asks about a specific topic or method (e.g. "kano model", "customer journey"). Then call get_article_details_by_slugs with the returned article_slug values to read full content. Optional page/per return a slice and next_page while more remain; without them the complete list is returned.

  4. First observed

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/idempotent/non-destructive safety, so the bar is lower, but the description adds real behavior: matches are case-insensitive, results carry summary metadata/category/tags/URLs and explicitly NOT body markdown. It also discloses pagination semantics (next_page while more remain; complete list when page/per omitted). Minor gap: no note on match ranking or empty-result behavior.

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?

Dense, front-loaded paragraph that goes purpose -> output shape -> when to use -> next step -> pagination in that order, with no filler sentences. Every clause carries actionable information.

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?

For a 3-param search tool with annotations covering the safety profile and an output schema covering return values, the description supplies the missing pieces: search breadth, result contents, pagination contract, and the follow-up tool. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it correctly is absent.

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 semantics the schema does not carry: the returned next_page field and the contrast between sliced and complete-list modes. It largely restates the schema's page/per default behavior rather than adding new syntax detail, keeping it just above baseline.

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 (case-insensitive full-text search over published articles) and constrains it to published articles, which separates it from list_articles and get_articles_by_tag. The agent knows exactly what this tool does 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 Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly says when to use it ('when the user asks about a specific topic or method', with concrete examples) and prescribes the follow-up call to get_article_details_by_slugs for full content. This is a clear when-to-use plus a named next step, leaving nothing to inference.

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