list_discovery

Read-onlyIdempotent

Free global read-only discovery. Use this for service-wide catalogs/boards/snapshots, not one-agent data. capability_network supports evidence-ranked q/tag/min_confidence filters.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint/idempotentHint/destructiveHint=false and a closed world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely new behavioral context beyond that: the call is 'Free' (no cost/spend), and the q/tag/min_confidence filters only function on one specific view.

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?

Three short sentences, zero filler, front-loaded with the scope and safe-operation nature before the usage rule and the filter caveat.

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?

With a fully documented 1-required/4-total schema and no output schema, the description supplies enough to call it correctly: scope, exclusions, and the view-specific filter behavior. Only the naming of sibling alternatives is missing.

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% and already documents that q/tag/min_confidence are capability_network-only and enumerates each view's meaning, so the description's filter sentence largely restates structured data. 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?

States the resource and scope clearly: 'Free global read-only discovery... service-wide catalogs/boards/snapshots.' It implicitly separates itself from one-agent tools ('not one-agent data') but never names the sibling (e.g., get_agent) that an agent would otherwise reach for, so differentiation is by category rather than by tool.

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?

Gives an explicit when-to-use ('service-wide catalogs/boards/snapshots') and a when-not ('not one-agent data'), plus narrows the filter args to the capability_network view. Strong routing guidance, though the excluded alternative is described rather than named.

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