Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`url`	No	Link to the YouTube video. Shorts URLs are also supported.
`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 preferred language for returned text when the source supports localization.
`pageSize`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`tweetUrl`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
`tweet_id`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.
`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.
`permalink`	No	Alias for `url`. Prefer `url`.

`maxResults`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.
`max_results`	No	Ignored if this tool does not support it.

B3.3/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, and the description adds useful response-shape context (channel field naming, publishedAt) that the schema does not. It does not cover error behavior, auth, or invalid/private URLs, but the read-only annotation lowers that burden.

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?

Two short sentences, both load-bearing: the first states purpose and input, the second preempts two common field-mapping mistakes. No filler or repetition of schema details.

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?

The tool is simple and read-only, and the schema fully documents parameters, so the call is invocable. However, with no output schema, the description only hints at the response shape (channel, publishedAt), leaving an agent unsure what else is returned.

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 of 3 applies. The description adds value by mapping response fields (channel vs author, publishedAt), which aids interpretation, but it adds little to the 18 input parameters; aliases and ignored params are left entirely to the schema.

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?

Opens with a clear verb+resource: 'Get a single YouTube video by URL', which communicates exactly the operation and its scope. The word 'single' distinguishes it from sibling list/search tools like youtube_search_list and youtube_channel_videos_list, though it does not name them explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance is given on when to choose this tool over the many YouTube siblings (comments, transcript, search, channel videos). The field-name hints are response semantics, not selection criteria, so an agent gets no help routing between alternatives.

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