reelshort_home

Read-only

List ReelShort's home page shelves of short dramas (New Release, TOP, Reel Original, genre shelves) with each title's id, title, description, cover, link, episode count, tags, plays and favorites. Use this to see what ReelShort is promoting and to find shelf ids for reelshort_shelf. Only public catalog metadata is returned, never playable video.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, and the description adds real value by clarifying what data is returned ('Only public catalog metadata is returned, never playable video'), setting expectations vs a streaming/playback tool. No pagination or rate-limit behavior is described, keeping it from a 5.

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 tight sentences: purpose and returned fields first, then usage/routing, then a data-scope caveat. Every sentence carries distinct information with zero restatement.

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?

Given an output schema exists, the description doesn't need to detail return structure; it still summarizes returned fields and the 'never playable video' scope. With annotations plus a full-coverage schema, an agent has everything needed to select and call this 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 the single language param documents its allowed locales and translation behavior. The description adds nothing about the parameter, so the baseline 3 applies since the schema does the heavy lifting.

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: 'List ReelShort's home page shelves of short dramas' and enumerates the shelf types (New Release, TOP, Reel Original, genre). It also spells out the returned fields and distinguishes itself from reelshort_shelf by naming the dependency, so an agent can tell it apart from sibling catalog tools.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explicitly frames the use case ('Use this to see what ReelShort is promoting and to find shelf ids for reelshort_shelf'), routing the agent to a downstream sibling. It stops short of an explicit when-not (e.g. 'for keyword search use reelshort_search'), so context is clear but exclusions are absent.

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