get_tweet_replies

Read-onlyIdempotent

Get replies to a tweet (v1). Tweet must be an original post. Up to ~20 per page; use cursor to paginate. Prefer get_tweet_replies_v2 for Relevance/Latest/Likes sorting.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, openWorld and non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds real behavioral context beyond them: a ~20-item page size, cursor-based pagination, and the original-post restriction that will cause failures if ignored. It stops short of noting auth needs, rate limits, or what a reply object contains.

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?

Three short sentences, zero filler, with the version, precondition, and sibling routing front-loaded in that order. Every clause carries operational information.

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?

With only 4 parameters, full schema coverage, and annotations covering the safety semantics, this is nearly complete for a read-only paged listing. The residual gap is that no output schema exists and the description never characterizes the reply records returned – the one place a description would still be carrying weight.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3, but the description still adds meaning: it ties 'cursor' to pagination flow and quantifies the page size, which the schema does not. It says nothing about how sinceTime/untilTime interact with pagination, leaving a small gap.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Get replies to a tweet'), marks the API version (v1), and immediately distinguishes it from get_tweet_replies_v2. An agent can tell which of the two replies tools it wants without opening either schema.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Gives both a precondition ('Tweet must be an original post') and an explicit routing rule: prefer get_tweet_replies_v2 for Relevance/Latest/Likes sorting. That is a concrete when-not plus a named alternative, leaving little to inference.

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