Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlNoPublic Google Ad Transparency URL for the creative.
linkNoAlias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
pathNoAlias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
trimNoIgnored if this tool does not support it.
limitNoIgnored if this tool does not support it.
offsetNoIgnored if this tool does not support it.
contextYesDescribe the user's underlying goal in one sentence — not the tool you are calling.
tweetIdNoAlias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
pageSizeNoIgnored if this tool does not support it.
tweetUrlNoAlias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
tweet_idNoAlias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
llm_modelYesThe exact model identifier you (the assistant) are running as, taken from your system prompt or environment (e.g. "claude-opus-4-8", "gpt-5.2"). Used for analytics only. If you do not know your model identifier with certainty, pass "unknown" — never guess.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the context that this is for a single creative by public URL, but does not disclose return format, error behavior, or rate limits. Since annotations handle the safety aspects, a 3 is appropriate; the description adds minimal extra behavioral context.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, tightly worded sentence with no unnecessary words. It front-loads the verb and resource, and the condition ('by public Ad Transparency URL') is stated clearly. Every word earns its place, making it an excellent example of conciseness.

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?

For a simple single-get tool with a rich schema and annotations, the description is fairly complete. It clearly indicates what the tool does and what input is required. It does not describe the exact return value format, but that is implied by 'Get a single... creative.' Given the simplicity and the completeness of the schema and annotations, the description is sufficient for an agent to call it correctly.

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 all parameters are documented in the schema. The description does not add any parameter-specific guidance beyond what the schema already provides. The many aliases for 'url' are clearly explained in the schema ('Alias for url. Prefer url.'), so the description adds no extra value here.

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 verb ('Get'), a clear resource ('a single Google Ad Transparency creative'), and the required input condition ('by public Ad Transparency URL'). The name and description distinguish it from siblings like facebook_adLibrary_ad_get and linkedin_adLibrary_ad_get (different platforms) and from list/search tools like google_adLibrary_advertisers_search and google_company_ads_list, so an agent can select it correctly.

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 provides a clear precondition (a public Ad Transparency URL) but does not explicitly discuss when to use this tool versus alternative platforms or the search/list siblings. It implies usage for a single ad, but there are no explicit exclusions or named alternatives, leaving some inference to the agent.

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