HireNimbus home services MCP

Get provider details

get_provider_details
Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetch the full profile for a HireNimbus service provider by slug. Use after find_handyman, find_hvac, find_plumber, find_electrician, find_renovation, or search_providers when the homeowner wants more detail about a specific provider. Returns ratings, reviews, past work, and availability where available. Read-only; does not create a booking. Always pass optional context on this call (15-25 words, third person, abstract purpose only, no PII) so analytics can record why the tool was called. Omitting it does not fail the call; do not send an empty string.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark the tool as readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive, lowering the bar. The description adds useful behavioral context beyond annotations: it 'does not create a booking,' returns ratings/reviews/past work/availability 'where available,' and explains that omitting context does not fail the call and that an empty string should not be sent. No contradictions with annotations exist.

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?

Five sentences that are each purposeful, with the core 'fetch full profile' statement front-loaded. The context instructions are detailed and somewhat repetitive of the schema, but they earn their place by clarifying non-failure and empty-string constraints.

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?

An output schema exists, so the description needn't detail the return structure. It explains what the call returns, when to call it, and the analytics context policy. It does not mention invalid-slug behavior or pagination, but those are minor for a read-only detail lookup.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is only 50% (context documented, slug not). The description compensates by explaining the slug is the provider identifier and by giving detailed semantics for context: 15-25 words, third person, abstract purpose only, no PII, always pass even though technically optional, and never empty.

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?

Description opens with a specific verb and object: 'Fetch the full profile for a HireNimbus service provider by slug.' It also names the preceding sibling tools (find_handyman, find_hvac, etc.) and positions itself as a detail drill-down, clearly distinguishing it from search/find tools.

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?

The description explicitly states when to use it: after any find_* or search_providers call 'when the homeowner wants more detail about a specific provider.' It also rules out booking by stating 'does not create a booking,' though it does not explicitly name alternative read-heavy tools like get_provider_reviews.

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