OverviewDiscussionsAdmin

Get post

get_post
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get a single post by its slug. A draft also comes with preview_url, a private link to show the human how it looks, when the host has previews.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
slugYesSlug of the post, e.g. "hello-world", as returned by create_post or list_posts.
blog_idNoYour blog's id, as returned by signup. Optional with an API key: it defaults to the key's blog, and any id you pass must be that blog. Required when the server runs without API keys.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
postNo
errorNoPresent only on failure (isError: true). Success fields are absent then.
preview_urlNoPrivate link to a rendered draft for the human to review: not indexed, not listed anywhere. Present only for drafts, on hosts with previews.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish that this is a non-destructive, idempotent read. The description adds useful conditional behavior: drafts may include a private preview_url when the host supports previews, which is context not available from the annotations.

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 compact sentences with the core lookup behavior front-loaded and the draft preview behavior appended only as useful conditional detail.

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?

The tool is simple, the schema is fully documented, annotations specify the safety profile, and an output schema exists. The description adds the only notable behavioral nuance (draft preview_url), making the definition complete 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 coverage is 100%, so both slug and blog_id are fully documented in the schema. The description reinforces slug lookup but adds no syntax, constraints, or meaning beyond what the schema already provides.

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?

Description states a specific verb and resource ('Get a single post') and scopes it to lookup by slug, which clearly distinguishes it from list_posts and other 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 phrase 'by its slug' implies this is the single-record lookup path, but the description never explicitly names alternatives like list_posts or states when not to use this tool.

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