Get an uploaded asset

get_upload
Read-only

Look up a stored asset by its upload id: filename, contentType, sizeBytes, status, its kamy://asset/<id> reference, and a freshly signed downloadUrl valid for one hour once the bytes exist. Its main use is confirming an out-of-band transfer landed — upload_file returns uploaded:false when the file was too large to pass inline and you PUT it yourself — because this read reconciles a still-'pending' row against storage and flips it to 'uploaded' the first time it sees the object. Also the way to mint a fresh download link after an earlier signed URL expired. Read-only and spends no quota. Requires a Kamy API key with the uploads:read scope; without a key, returns dashboard setup instructions.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

The description contains a critical contradiction: it claims 'Read-only and spends no quota' (consistent with readOnlyHint=true) but then describes a side effect: 'reconciles a still-'pending' row against storage and flips it to 'uploaded' the first time it sees the object.' This is a state change, contradicting the annotation. Per rubric, score 1 for contradiction.

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 description is dense with useful information and front-loaded with the return fields. It efficiently covers use cases, requirements, and behavior. While it is somewhat long, every sentence serves a purpose, earning a 4 rather than a perfect 5.

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?

Despite the contradiction, the description covers all needed context: it lists return fields, explains the reconciliation behavior, mentions the signed URL's validity, states quota and scope requirements, and notes what happens without a key. For a one-parameter tool with no output schema, this is very complete.

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 baseline is 3. The description repeats the schema's hint about using the bare UUID but adds no new parameter semantics. The single parameter is well-documented in the schema; the description does not enhance it further.

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 clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Look up a stored asset by its upload id' and enumerates the specific fields returned. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like upload_file by explaining its role in confirming out-of-band transfers, making it unambiguous.

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?

The description explicitly states when to use the tool: confirming an out-of-band transfer landed and minting a fresh download link. It provides context by referencing upload_file's behavior and notes the required API key scope ('uploads:read'), giving clear guidance on prerequisites and use cases.

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

A4.4/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct action or resource with minimal ambiguity. For example, `render_pdf`, `render_docx`, `render_xlsx`, and `pptx` are clearly different output formats, while `merge_pdfs`, `split_pdf`, and `edit_pdf` target different PDF operations. The signature tools (`create_signature_request`, `get_signature_request`, etc.) are also clearly separated by lifecycle stage. No two tools appear to do the same thing.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names follow a highly consistent `verb_noun` pattern throughout, such as `create_signature_request`, `get_signature_request`, `list_signature_requests`, and `remind_signature`. This pattern is applied uniformly across all major domains (render, signature, template, webhook, trace), making the API predictable and easy for an agent to navigate.

Tool Count4/5

With 59 tools, this is a large surface area, but it is justified by the breadth of functionality: document rendering in multiple formats, e-signatures, template management, webhooks, scheduling, and a crypto/audit trail. While large, each tool has a distinct purpose, and the count feels appropriate for the scope of a comprehensive document automation API. A surface this large risks being overwhelming, but the internal organization is logical.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface is remarkably complete, covering the full lifecycle for multiple domains. For e-signatures, there are tools for CRUD (requests, templates), sending (individual, bulk, envelope), monitoring (get, list), reminders, and certificates. For documents, it covers creation, conversion, editing, merging, splitting, and verification. The inclusion of utility tools like `get_started`, `validate_payload`, and the audit trail tools further solidifies this as a well-considered, production-ready API surface.
