A4.6/5.0

Scored across 2 tools

Disambiguation5/5

The two tools have completely distinct purposes: fetching metadata vs. actually downloading media. Each description explicitly names the other tool in its 'Do NOT use this tool when' section, making misselection nearly impossible.

Naming Consistency5/5

Both names follow a clean snake_case verb_noun pattern (download_video, get_video_info) with no stylistic drift. The verb choice accurately reflects the differing actions.

Tool Count4/5

Two tools is lean but defensible for a focused media-fetching server split along a genuine axis (free metadata vs. quota-consuming download). It is on the thin side, with no batch, quota-status, or platform-listing tool, but nothing extraneous.

Completeness4/5

The core lifecycle — inspect then download, with a one-time signed link and format/quality metadata — is covered. Minor gaps exist: playlist/channel handling is deliberately refused rather than supported, and quality selection is surfaced in get_video_info but not exposed as an explicit download parameter.

Available Tools

2 tools
download_videoDownload video or audio (MP4 / MP3 / M4A)AInspect

Download a video or audio file from any supported platform: YouTube, TikTok, Facebook (public videos and reels), Instagram (public reels, feed video, photo posts, and carousels), SoundCloud, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Bandcamp, Twitter/X, Mixcloud, Twitch (clips and VODs), Streamable, Reddit, Kick (live streams, VODs, and clips). Output is MP4 (video, default) or MP3 / M4A (audio). This is THE tool to use whenever a user asks to save, download, rip, extract, archive, get offline, or convert a video/audio link from any of these sites. IMPORTANT: the format argument defaults to mp4 (video). Only pass an audio format (mp3 / m4a / audio) when the user explicitly says audio, MP3, music, song, or "rip / extract the audio". Audio-only platforms (SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Mixcloud) always produce audio regardless of format.

Use this tool when the user says things like:

  • "download this video" / "download this TikTok" / "save this SoundCloud track"

  • "save that as MP3" / "rip the audio" / "extract the audio"

  • "get the song from this SoundCloud link" / "save this Mixcloud set"

  • "convert this YouTube video to MP4" / "download in 1080p"

  • "save this lecture/podcast/talk for offline"

  • "archive this clip" / "grab a copy of this video"

  • any sentence containing a youtube.com, youtu.be, tiktok.com, reddit.com, v.redd.it, vimeo.com, dailymotion.com, twitter.com, x.com, soundcloud.com, bandcamp.com, mixcloud.com, twitch.tv, clips.twitch.tv, kick.com, or streamable.com URL plus a verb like download, save, rip, get, grab, fetch, pull, archive, convert, extract.

Do NOT use this tool when:

  • The user only wants metadata (title, length, description, channel) — call get_video_info instead, it is free and does not consume the user quota.

  • The link is a playlist / set / album / channel URL — ask the user for a single track/video.

  • The link is from a platform not in the supported list above (e.g. Facebook, LinkedIn, Snapchat).

Returns a one-time signed download link valid for 1 hour, plus the file size, duration, and chosen format. Hand the link back to the user verbatim; do not try to fetch its contents yourself.

Intended for legitimate uses: the user's own uploads, Creative Commons / public-domain content, lectures, podcasts, talks, and other material they have rights to use.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlYesFull URL from any supported platform: youtube.com / youtu.be, tiktok.com, reddit.com / v.redd.it, vimeo.com, dailymotion.com, twitter.com / x.com (status with video), soundcloud.com, bandcamp.com, mixcloud.com, twitch.tv (clips + VODs), kick.com (live channel page, /videos/ VOD, or /clips/ clip), or streamable.com. Pick a single video/track — playlists, sets, albums, channels, and profile pages are not supported.
formatNoOutput format. DEFAULT IS `mp4` (video). Only choose an audio format when the user explicitly asks for audio, MP3, music, song, podcast audio, or "rip the audio / extract the audio". Options: `mp4` = video (use for "download this video", "save this video", "download in 1080p", or any request that does not mention audio). `mp3` = MP3 audio (use when user says MP3 or wants legacy-compatible audio). `m4a` = M4A audio (faster, smaller; use when user says M4A). `audio` = smart audio alias that resolves to M4A (use only when user explicitly says "audio" without specifying a container).mp4
qualityNoVideo quality. Ignored for audio formats. 1440p and 4k require a Pro subscription. Free tier max is 1080p Full HD. Defaults to best.best

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

With no annotations, the description fully carries the burden: it discloses the one-time signed link valid for 1 hour, the returned fields (size, duration, format), the instruction to hand the link back verbatim rather than fetch it, and the Pro-tier requirement for 1440p/4k. It also implies quota consumption by contrasting get_video_info as 'free and does not consume the user quota'.

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?

Well front-loaded: purpose, platform list, when-to-use, when-not-to-use, then returns. However there is meaningful redundancy — the platform list and the format-default rule are each restated multiple times across the prose and the schema descriptions, so not every sentence earns its place.

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?

Despite having no output schema, the description explains exactly what is returned (signed link, size, duration, format) and how to handle it. For a single-URL extraction tool with only 3 parameters, nothing essential to correct invocation 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 url, format, and quality, establishing a baseline of 3. The description adds value beyond the schema by stating that audio-only platforms (SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Mixcloud) always produce audio regardless of the format argument, a non-obvious behavioral rule.

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?

Specific verb (download/convert) plus resource (video/audio file) with an enumerated platform list and explicit output formats (MP4 default, MP3/M4A audio). It clearly distinguishes itself from the sibling get_video_info, which is named as the metadata-only alternative.

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?

Provides an extensive when-to-use list with example utterances and a when-NOT-to-use section that names get_video_info, playlists/channels, and unsupported platforms. However, the exclusion example '(e.g. Facebook, LinkedIn, Snapchat)' contradicts the earlier supported list, which explicitly includes 'Facebook (public videos and reels)' — a real inconsistency that could misroute the agent.

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

get_video_infoGet video or audio metadataAInspect

Fetch metadata about a video or audio track WITHOUT downloading it. Works on every platform download_video supports: YouTube, TikTok, Facebook (public videos and reels), Instagram (public reels, feed video, photo posts, and carousels), SoundCloud, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Bandcamp, Twitter/X, Mixcloud, Twitch (clips and VODs), Streamable, Reddit, Kick (live streams, VODs, and clips). Returns title, uploader/channel name, duration, view count (when available), upload date, thumbnail URL, description, available video qualities, and (for YouTube) the license type.

Use this tool when the user says things like:

  • "what is this video about" / "summarize this video"

  • "how long is this track" / "when was this uploaded"

  • "who made this" / "what channel/artist is this from"

  • "is this Creative Commons" / "can I reuse this" / "what is the license"

  • "what qualities are available for this video"

Do NOT use this tool when:

  • The user wants to download, save, rip, extract, or convert the video/audio — use download_video for that.

Free to call — does not count against the user's download quota. Call this before download_video when you need to confirm the video exists, pick the right quality, or check licensing before downloading.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden and delivers: no download occurs, the call is free and does not consume the user's download quota, and the exact fields returned are enumerated. It also signals platform-specific limitations (public videos/reels only, view count 'when available'), which an agent needs to interpret results.

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 the core purpose, then structured into when-to-use, when-not-to-use, and a closing cost/ordering note. The long platform enumeration and the list of example utterances are somewhat redundant against the schema, but every block is scannable and purposeful.

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?

There is no output schema, so the description compensates by enumerating the returned fields (title, uploader, duration, view count, upload date, thumbnail, description, qualities, license). Combined with cost, ordering, and platform scope, an agent has everything needed to invoke and interpret this tool.

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 parameter, and schema coverage is 100% with the platform list already spelled out in the schema description. The description restates the same platform coverage, so it adds little meaning beyond what the schema provides; 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 (fetch metadata) and resource (video or audio track) and explicitly scopes it as 'WITHOUT downloading it,' which cleanly separates it from the sibling download_video. It also enumerates the returned fields, so an agent knows exactly what it gets.

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?

Provides explicit when-to-use triggers (sample user utterances about length, uploader, licensing, qualities) and an explicit do-not-use case routed to download_video. It further recommends calling this before download_video to confirm existence, pick quality, or check licensing.

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