Browse the Atlas Tree or Guided Tour

atlas_navigate
Read-onlyIdempotent

Browse the whole Atlas in the publisher's order: the canonical tree of every published Node, or the guided first learning path, an introduction then steps each naming a Node id with narration. Use to survey what exists or to start learning with no topic in mind. Neither view carries entry text or claims; the tour is null if none is published.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, closed-world), so they carry the burden. The description still adds real value beyond them: the content boundary ('neither view carries entry text or claims') and the null-tour edge case, which an agent cannot infer from the annotations.

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 primary purpose, then the usage trigger, then the return caveat; no sentence is wasted. The opening sentence is long and appositive-heavy, which slightly blunts scannability, but it is proportionate to the two-mode tool.

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 two-parameter, default-valued, read-only browse tool with full annotation coverage and an output schema, nothing needed to invoke it correctly is missing. The description even covers the one edge case (unpublished tour) that the structured fields leave open.

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 description coverage is 100%, so both parameters are already documented, including the enum values and the expected_revision rejection behavior ('revision_changed'). The description reinforces tree ordering and the tour null case but adds no syntax or meaning beyond the schema, matching the 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?

The description names a concrete verb (browse) and resource (the Atlas), then enumerates the two modes precisely: the canonical tree of every published Node, or the guided first learning path. The clause 'Neither view carries entry text or claims' implicitly separates it from atlas_read, so an agent can tell what this tool is not without opening a 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?

'Use to survey what exists or to start learning with no topic in mind' gives a clear use condition plus an implicit exclusion (topic-driven lookups belong elsewhere). It stops short of naming a specific sibling alternative, so it is clear context rather than explicit when/when-not routing.

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