cricbuzz_video_playlists

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful behavioral context by explicitly stating that 'media files and playback URLs are not returned', setting a clear boundary for what the agent should expect.

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 tightly written sentences with no waste. The core return contents are front-loaded, followed immediately by the important exclusion and downstream usage hint.

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 no input parameters, an output schema present, and annotations covering read-only/open-world behavior, the description is largely complete. It explains returned fields and an important exclusion, though it could have named the relevant sibling tool or the actual playlist page tool to make the 'use a playlist ID' guidance directly actionable.

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?

The tool has zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description does not need to explain parameter semantics, and it appropriately focuses on output content instead.

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 gives a specific verb and resource ('Returns the current Cricbuzz video playlist directory') and enumerates the returned fields (playlist IDs, names, preview video URLs, video counts). It is clear what the tool does, though it does not explicitly differentiate itself from the sibling cricbuzz_video_categories tool.

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?

It implies usage by saying 'Use a playlist ID to find the playlist page', which describes a downstream step rather than when to select this tool over alternatives. No explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance is provided, and the sibling cricbuzz_video_categories is not mentioned.

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