tmdb_person_list

Read-only

List popular TMDB people with IDs, names, known-for titles, images, and detail URLs. Use tmdb_person for one person's profile, tmdb_search to find a person by query, or tmdb_movie_list and tmdb_tv_list for title charts.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and openWorldHint, so safety is covered. The description adds useful behavioral context: results are a popularity chart ('popular') and carry detail URLs plus known-for titles. It does not contradict 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 sentences, zero waste, with the primary purpose front-loaded and the disambiguation sentence directly after.

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?

An output schema exists so return values need no explanation, and annotations cover the read-only/open-world profile. Purpose, content, and sibling routing are all present, leaving nothing an agent needs 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% and both params (page, limit) are documented in the schema with defaults and the max 20 cap. The description adds no parameter-level detail, so the schema does the heavy lifting; baseline 3 applies.

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?

Specific verb (List) plus resource (popular TMDB people) with the exact fields returned (IDs, names, known-for titles, images, detail URLs). It explicitly names which sibling to use for adjacent tasks, so an agent can distinguish it without opening any 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?

Explicitly routes the agent: tmdb_person for one profile, tmdb_search to find a person by query, tmdb_movie_list/tmdb_tv_list for title charts. Covers the main alternatives and the conditions that select them.

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