Brand search terms

get_brand_search_terms

Read-only

Use when the user requests Amazon Brand Analytics Search Terms reports: top_terms returns search-term ranks, term_products returns clicked products for one exact term, and asin_terms returns terms for one exact clicked ASIN. Reads stored reports for a required date window of at most 42 days. Lookup views require the exact term or ASIN; wildcard term searches are not supported.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`asin`	No	asin_terms only. Exact clicked ASIN.
`view`	No	Bounded serving view.	top_terms
`limit`	No	Max rows (1-200, default 20).
`offset`	No	Pagination offset (0-100000, default 0). Use the returned pagination.next_offset to continue.
`sort_by`	No	Sort column. Allowed values depend on view.
`end_date`	No	Optional report-week end upper bound (YYYY-MM-DD). The range may span at most 42 days. Defaults to the latest complete week.
`sort_order`	No	Sort direction. Defaults to ascending rank or descending share depending on view.
`start_date`	No	Optional report-week start lower bound (YYYY-MM-DD). The range may span at most 42 days. Defaults to the latest complete week.
`search_term`	No	term_products only. Exact search term; wildcard and substring scans are not supported.
`department_name`	No	Optional exact department filter.
`min_click_share`	No	Lookup views only. Minimum Amazon-reported click share.
`include_raw_rows`	No	For tabular results, false returns compact rows capped at MCP_TEXT_ROW_PREVIEW_LIMIT (default 10), regardless of limit. Complete-page and custom non-tabular responses may ignore this option; see tool-specific notes. Default true; large full-row responses are capped separately. Freshness fields require include_diagnostics=true in either row mode, where supported.
`include_diagnostics`	No	True enables expanded freshness diagnostics. Where supported, snapshot_capture_at and snapshot_data_through_date are populated only when include_diagnostics=true, in both compact and full-row modes; values may still be null if source data is unavailable. Default false. Basic empty-result data-window diagnostics are included by default when available.
`max_search_frequency_rank`	No	Maximum Amazon search-frequency rank.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnly, non-destructive, closed-world), so the description earns credit for adding non-obvious behavior: it reads stored reports, requires a bounded window of at most 42 days, and exact-match lookups reject wildcard/substring scans. Minor inconsistency: it calls the date window 'required' while start_date/end_date are optional and default to the latest complete week.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three dense sentences, front-loaded with the trigger, then view semantics, then operational constraints — no wasted clauses. The phrase 'required date window' is slightly misleading given optional date params with defaults.

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 14 parameters, an output schema, and full annotations, the description covers the pieces an agent most needs: which view to pick, what each returns, exact-match requirements, and the date-span cap. Return shape and pagination are handled by the output schema and the offset parameter description, so nothing critical is missing.

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%, so every parameter is already documented, including view-scoped ones ('asin_terms only', 'term_products only') and the 42-day range limit. The description restates those same couplings rather than adding new meaning, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 resource (Amazon Brand Analytics Search Terms reports) and enumerates the three serving views with what each returns (top_terms = ranks, term_products = clicked products for one term, asin_terms = terms for one ASIN). That is a clear verb+resource statement. It falls short of 5 because it never distinguishes itself from the adjacent sibling get_search_terms (and get_search_query_performance), which an agent could easily confuse with this report.

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?

Opens with an explicit trigger: 'Use when the user requests Amazon Brand Analytics Search Terms reports,' and adds per-view applicability plus the constraint that lookup views need exact term/ASIN with no wildcards. It gives no explicit exclusions or 'use X instead' routing, so an agent has to infer that get_search_terms is a different dataset.

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