Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`url`	No	Link to the Reddit post or hosted video.
`link`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
`path`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
`trim`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`limit`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`offset`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`context`	Yes	Describe the user's underlying goal in one sentence — not the tool you are calling.
`tweetId`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
`language`	No	Optional ISO 639-1 language code (two letters) to prefer when multiple caption tracks exist.

TDQS

B3.4/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the agent knows this is a safe read operation. The description adds that it returns captions/transcript and accepts post or video URLs, which is useful. However, it doesn't disclose behavior like what happens for non-video posts, whether the transcript is auto-generated, or language selection behavior beyond the optional language param.

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 a single, efficient sentence that front-loads the core purpose ('Get captions transcript') and then states the input type. No wasted words. It could add a bit more context about when to use it, but for its length it's well-structured.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a read-only transcript tool with 100% schema coverage and no output schema, the description is mostly adequate. However, it doesn't address edge cases like non-video posts, whether the transcript is auto-generated, or how language preference works. The openWorldHint annotation suggests the tool may behave unpredictably, and the description doesn't clarify what happens with unsupported inputs.

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 documents all 18 parameters. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema: it clarifies the URL input accepts a post or video URL, which maps to the url/link/path aliases. The many alias parameters (link, path, tweetId, tweetUrl, etc.) are documented in the schema but the description doesn't explain why they exist or which to prefer beyond the schema's 'Prefer url' notes.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Get captions transcript for a Reddit video post.' It also clarifies the accepted input ('post or video URL'). It doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like reddit_post_get or reddit_post_comments_list, but the transcript focus is clear enough to distinguish it from most siblings.

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 implies usage context: use when you need captions/transcript of a Reddit video post. It doesn't explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives (e.g., reddit_post_get for post metadata, reddit_post_comments_list for comments). The 'Accepts a post or video URL' line gives some input guidance but no exclusions or alternative routing.

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