Códigos geográficos do IBGE

ibge_geocodigo
Read-onlyIdempotent

Decodes IBGE codes or searches codes by locality name.

Features:

  • Decode region, state, municipality, or district codes

  • Search IBGE code by name

  • Show complete geographic hierarchy

  • Return related codes

Code structure:

  • 1 digit: Region (1=North, 2=Northeast, 3=Southeast, 4=South, 5=Central-West)

  • 2 digits: State (11-53)

  • 7 digits: Municipality

  • 9 digits: District

Examples:

  • Decode municipality: codigo="3550308"

  • Decode state: codigo="35"

  • Search by name: nome="São Paulo"

  • Municipality in state: nome="Campinas", uf="SP"

This tool decodes a code's structure and resolves name→code at any level. Use a different tool when:

  • You only need to list/search municipalities → ibge_municipios

  • You want the full detailed record of one locality → ibge_localidade

Behavior: read-only and idempotent — a live GET against the public IBGE Localidades API. Returns Markdown.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, open-world, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful context beyond annotations: it is a live GET against the public IBGE Localidades API and returns Markdown. It does not discuss error behavior or rate limits, but those gaps are minor for a public read-only decoder.

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 front-loaded with the core purpose and organized under clear headings. It is longer than strictly necessary because it repeats code-format details already present in the schema, but the structure and examples make the extra length useful rather than noisy.

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?

Given the 3 optional parameters, 100% schema coverage, full annotation coverage, and the presence of an output schema, the description supplies everything needed for correct invocation. Alternatives are named, examples are provided, and the return behavior is stated, so no material context is missing.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all three parameters. The description still adds value by repeating the digit-to-level code structure and giving concrete examples such as codigo="3550308" and combined nome="Campinas", uf="SP", which clarify usage beyond the raw schema.

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 states a specific purpose: decoding IBGE codes or searching codes by locality name. It enumerates supported levels (region, state, municipality, district) and explicitly distinguishes itself from ibge_municipios and ibge_localidade, so an agent can select it without inspecting sibling schemas.

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?

It gives explicit examples for both main modes and a dedicated 'Use a different tool when' section naming alternatives and the conditions that select them. This routes the agent away from tools that only list municipalities or return one full locality record.

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