tiktok_profile

Read-only

Fetch a public TikTok account's user metadata and engagement statistics by handler without the leading @. Missing, deleted, or banned handles return not found. This retrieves the account profile rather than its video feed. Use tiktok_posts for the account's public videos or tiktok_post for one video's details.

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 the safety profile is covered. The description adds real behavioral context beyond them: only public accounts are covered, and missing/deleted/banned handles return not found — a non-obvious edge-case outcome. It stops short of richer detail (e.g. rate limits), but it meaningfully exceeds the annotation bar.

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, front-loaded with the core purpose, followed by the not-found edge case, then sibling disambiguation. Every sentence carries distinct value and nothing is wasted.

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?

With an output schema present, return values need not be described, and annotations cover the safety profile. The description supplies purpose, edge-case behavior, and alternatives, leaving nothing an agent needs in order 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 description coverage is 100% and the handler parameter is fully documented in the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies. The description restates the 'no leading @' convention, which is mildly reinforcing but adds no new syntax or format information.

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 (Fetch), resource (public TikTok account's user metadata and engagement statistics), and input form (by handle without the leading @). It explicitly distinguishes itself from the video-oriented siblings, so an agent can route correctly 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 contrasts this tool with its alternatives: 'This retrieves the account profile rather than its video feed. Use tiktok_posts for the account's public videos or tiktok_post for one video's details.' Both the when-to-use and the when-to-use-something-else conditions are named.

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