List brands

list_brands
Read-onlyIdempotent

List the brands and studies you can access, with visibility, share of voice and recommendation (each with the answers and models behind it and its change on the previous period), citations, site readiness, collection health, AI traffic, and the opportunity inbox's Now stage. Brands come in name order, so paging stays steady as brands are added. Start here to find a brand ID.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false), so the bar is lower, yet the description still adds a genuine behavioral guarantee: brands are returned in name order "so paging stays steady as brands are added" — a stability property not derivable from annotations. It does not discuss auth scoping or rate limits, keeping it at a 4.

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?

Purpose and ordering guarantee are front-loaded, with the entry-point cue last. The middle clause is a long laundry list of returned metrics, but each item is scoped and no sentence is filler.

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 annotations covering safety, a full output schema, and 100% parameter coverage, the description only needs purpose, ordering, and entry-point guidance — all present. Minor gap: no hint about how large the result set can be before paging, though the schema's cursor/limit notes mitigate this.

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 the schema already fully documents from/to/kind/limit/cursor, including defaults, window caps, and enum values. The description adds no parameter-level detail beyond the ordering note, so the 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?

Opens with a specific verb+resource ("List the brands and studies you can access") and explicitly frames itself as the entry point ("Start here to find a brand ID"), which separates it from detail-oriented siblings like get_brand_overview or get_brand_settings. An agent can route to it without opening the schema.

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?

"Start here to find a brand ID" gives clear, actionable context for when to reach for this tool, and the enumeration of returned data implies it's the discovery/index call. It stops short of naming when NOT to use it or pointing to a specific alternative for per-brand detail, so it falls just short of the top score.

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