export_data

Export a complete copy of your account's data (GDPR Articles 15 and 20), or check on one. Owner only: sign in with start_login first (a connection with only an API key is refused user_session_required). The first call starts the export; it is prepared in the background, and the account owner is told by email (or on their login channel) with a link that downloads it only while they are signed in — this tool never returns the data itself. Call again to see whether it is ready: an export already preparing or ready is reported instead of starting another. One new export per 24 hours (no limit while the account is scheduled for deletion); the file is kept for 7 days. Pass export_id to read one export's status.

ACCESS: needs a Proof account. Authenticate this client (Claude Code: /mcp → Authenticate), or sign in with start_login — a session opens this tool — then call this tool again.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false) by explaining that the export is prepared asynchronously in the background, that the data is delivered via an emailed link rather than returned by the tool, the 24-hour rate limit (waived for deletion-scheduled accounts), and the 7-day retention. These are exactly the operational traits an agent needs and that annotations cannot convey.

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 purpose then behavior, and nearly every sentence carries unique information. Slight redundancy: authentication is covered both in the main body ("sign in with start_login first") and again in the trailing ACCESS paragraph.

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?

With no output schema, the description fully compensates by explaining that the tool never returns the data itself and how delivery occurs. Auth requirements, rate limits, retention, and re-call semantics are all present, so an agent has everything needed to invoke it correctly.

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?

Only one optional parameter, and schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents export_id. The description's "Pass export_id to read one export's status" largely restates the schema text, adding only minor reinforcement; baseline 3 applies.

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 and resource ("Export a complete copy of your account's data") and explicitly covers the dual mode ("or check on one"). It cites the legal basis (GDPR Articles 15 and 20), which disambiguates it from the similarly-named export_authorizations sibling.

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?

Gives explicit when-to-use mechanics: first call starts the export, subsequent calls report readiness, and export_id reads a specific one. It also states prerequisites (owner only, sign in with start_login, API-key-only connections are refused) and the alternative path when not yet authenticated.

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