x_read

Read live X/Twitter data: look up a single tweet or user profile, batch-read up to 100 tweets or users at once, check whether one account follows another, fetch trending topics by region, extract a long-form article, or download tweet media. Pay per call in USDC — no API key, no signup; failed calls are never charged.

Guidance: resource=get-tweet|get-user (id), batch-tweets|batch-users (ids array, ≤100), check-follower (source+target usernames), trends (optional woeid/count), article (tweet id), followers-you-know (id + mandatory resultsLimit), download-media (id or ids ≤50 — returns media file URLs on THIS origin; links live 7 days). Fixed-price per call/id except followers-you-know which is per-result.

TDQS

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Without annotations, the description fully discloses behavior: all operations are read-only (no side effects), pricing is per-call (per-result for followers-you-know), failed calls are not charged, and download-media links expire in 7 days. No hidden surprises.

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 paragraphs: the first gives a high-level overview; the second is a dense, structured guidance list. Every sentence adds necessary detail with no fluff.

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 8 parameters and no output schema, the description covers all resources, their parameters, pricing, and side effects (no authentication, link expiry). It is complete enough for correct selection and invocation.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds critical context: batch limits, download-media limit ≤50, default WOEID, and the fact that resultsLimit is mandatory and billed per result. This is far beyond the schema's basic type constraints.

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?

The description opens with a clear verb ('Read') and lists specific resources (tweet, user, batch, trends, etc.), immediately distinguishing it from sibling tools like x_write or x_compose.

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?

The 'Guidance:' section explicitly maps each resource to its parameters, constraints (e.g., batch ≤100, followers-you-know requires resultsLimit), and pricing model. This tells the agent exactly when to use each variant.

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