list_circles

Read-only

List Circles with optional filters. Archived Circles are excluded by default; pass status="archived" to surface them. Returns paginated results.

ACCESS: needs a Proof account. Authenticate this client (Claude Code: /mcp → Authenticate), then call this tool again. start_login does NOT open this tool.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

readOnlyHint=true is consistent with a list operation, and the description adds real behavior beyond the annotation: the default exclusion of archived Circles, paginated returns, and a concrete auth requirement (needs a Proof account, authenticate via /mcp, and start_login does NOT authenticate this tool). That auth caveat is exactly the kind of operational context 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?

The core behavior is front-loaded in two tight sentences with no filler. The trailing auth block is longer and slightly repetitive ('Authenticate... then call this tool again'), but it earns its place by preventing a failed first call.

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 five-param, zero-required list tool with an output schema and full schema descriptions, the description covers the remaining gaps an agent needs: default filtering behavior, pagination, and authentication prerequisites. Nothing required to invoke it correctly 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%, so every parameter including page, limit, status, profile_id, and environment is already documented with types, enums, and bounds. The description only restates the status default, adding no syntax or format detail beyond the schema; 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 a specific verb and resource ('List Circles with optional filters') and immediately clarifies the default filtering scope. It is easily separable from get_circle, create_circle, update_circle, and delete_circle in the sibling set, though it never names those siblings explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description gives one concrete usage rule — archived Circles are hidden unless status="archived" is passed — which is genuinely actionable. However, it offers no guidance on when to choose list_circles over related listing tools (list_circle_members, list_profiles) or what to do when the result set is large.

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