Get provider import

getProviderImport
Read-only

One import from another email provider by its id, with its report as the Migrations page shows it: what came across, the domains to publish here, the API keys to replace and what was not brought across. Only the workspace owner reaches it.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish read-only, non-destructive, non-open-world behavior, and the description adds useful context about the report contents and the workspace-owner access restriction. It does not cover error behavior for a missing or unauthorized id, but it adds meaningful detail beyond 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?

The description is front-loaded and compact, with the core action stated first and the report contents and access restriction following efficiently. Every clause contributes relevant information.

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 output schema, the description appropriately explains what the returned report contains and who can access it. The remaining gap is the id parameter semantics, which are not clarified.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The only parameter is id, and the schema provides 0% description coverage. The description says the import is identified 'by its id' but does not state the id format, origin, or constraints, so it does little beyond restating the parameter name.

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 names a specific verb and resource: retrieving one provider import by id, and it enumerates the report content. It is clearly distinct from the list operation, though it does not explicitly name sibling alternatives such as getImport or listProviderImports.

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?

Usage is implied: fetch a specific provider import when its id is known, and only workspace owners can access it. However, it does not explicitly say when to use this versus listProviderImports, getImport, or cancelProviderImport.

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