Refresh the local Radius documentation cache

radius_docs_sync

Updates the local documentation cache from the radius-project/docs GitHub repo to refresh search results when answers appear stale.

Instructions

Pulls the latest changes from the radius-project/docs GitHub repo (the source of https://docs.radapp.io/) into the local cache. Call this if answers seem stale; otherwise the cache is reused as-is across calls.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

No arguments

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries burden. It mentions pulling changes into cache, implying mutation, but does not disclose potential side effects (e.g., network usage, cache overwrite behavior, error handling). Adequate but not thorough.

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 sentences, no wasted words. Front-loaded with action and condition. Highly efficient.

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 simplicity (0 params, no output schema), description fully covers purpose, usage, and caching behavior. No missing context for agent to invoke correctly.

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

Parameters4/5

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

No parameters exist, schema coverage 100%. Description adds no param info, which is expected. Baseline 4 for zero-parameter tool.

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?

Clearly states the verb 'Pulls' and resource 'local Radius documentation cache' from the specific GitHub repo. Distinguishes from sibling tools like radius_source_sync by specifying docs repo. Provides condition for use.

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 states when to call ('if answers seem stale') and when not to ('otherwise the cache is reused as-is'), providing clear guidance.

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