chesscom_player_game_archives

Read-only

List source-native monthly game archive URLs for a player. The service calls Chess.com’s documented Published-Data API serially. This independent service is not affiliated with Chess.com; do not use results for AI training or dataset creation.

A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The annotations already establish that this is a read-only, open-world operation. The description adds useful context beyond that: the service calls Chess.com's documented API serially, is independent and unaffiliated, and carries a restriction against using results for AI training or dataset creation.

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 purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence, followed by concise operational and usage constraints. The affiliation and AI-training disclaimer is somewhat boilerplate but still relevant to responsible use.

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?

This is a simple one-parameter tool with an output schema and annotations covering read-only and open-world behavior. The description supplies the core purpose and key usage restriction; only explicit sibling routing is missing.

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 single username parameter is already documented in the schema. The description says the tool is 'for a player' but adds no format, validation, or lookup semantics beyond 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?

The description uses a specific verb and resource: 'List source-native monthly game archive URLs for a player.' This clearly separates it from tools that return actual games or PGN data, though it does not explicitly name the relevant sibling tools.

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 purpose implies when to use it: when the agent needs the player's monthly archive URLs rather than game records. However, it gives no explicit when-not guidance and does not name alternatives such as the month-level game tools.

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