Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`by`	No	Treat the path value as a handle or a numeric user id. Defaults to id when the value is all digits.
`trim`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`urls`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`user`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`limit`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`handle`	No	X (Twitter) profile handle without the leading @, or a numeric user id.
`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.
`pageSize`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`userName`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`username`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`llm_model`	Yes	The 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.
`maxResults`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`profileUrl`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`linkedinUrl`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`max_results`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`screen_name`	No	Alias for `handle`. Prefer `handle`.
`conversation_id`	No	Echo the conversation_id from the server's previous response. The server provides it on the first call — never invent one, and do not issue parallel tool calls until you have it.

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, covering the safety profile. The description adds content about return fields (lookupStatus, metrics, account age signals) but does not disclose rate limits, auth requirements, or behavior on not-found profiles. With annotations present, the bar is lower, and the added return context is useful but not extensive.

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 two sentences with no filler. The primary action is front-loaded, and the return summary is concise. Every word earns its place.

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 single-profile get tool, the description covers the core purpose, input types, and key return elements. Though it lacks an output schema, it sketches the important return fields. The many ignored/alias parameters are documented in the schema, so the description does not need to repeat them. Slight gap: no mention of not-found handling or pagination, but those are minor for 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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description's mention of 'by handle or numeric user id' overlaps with the existing 'by' and 'handle' parameter descriptions without adding new meaning. It does not clarify alias parameters or the 'Defaults to id when all digits' behavior already in the schema. No extra semantic value beyond the 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 verb and resource ('Get an X (Twitter) profile') and adds key details: lookup by handle or numeric user id, and return contents (lookupStatus plus follower/tweet metrics and account age signals). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like twitter_profile_about_get and twitter_profiles_batch_get, even without naming them.

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 when to use the tool: when you need a profile by handle or numeric user id. However, it gives no explicit guidance about alternatives or when not to use it (e.g., for about-only data, use twitter_profile_about_get; for multiple profiles, use twitter_profiles_batch_get). Usage is clear but not contrasted with siblings.

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