Tool Scores

• search_pocketsA
  4.7/5.0
  Behavior4/5

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

  No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses authentication requirement ('Requires a valid Bearer token'), describes return fields ('IDs, titles, descriptions, creators, content types, and pricing tiers'), and mentions pagination control via limit. Could further clarify pagination behavior if results exceed limit.

  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?

  Description is a single paragraph of 5 sentences, front-loaded with purpose and usage. While concise and clear, it could be slightly better structured with bullet points or separate paragraphs for even easier scanning.

  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?

  For a tool with 3 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description covers all necessary context: purpose, usage guidelines, parameter behavior, authentication, and relationship to siblings. It is complete for an AI agent to understand when and how to use it.

  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% with descriptions for all three parameters. The description adds value by explaining what the query parameter accepts ('natural language search terms, creator names, or category keywords'), that content_type is optional with examples, and specifies the default and maximum for limit.

  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 clearly states the action ('Search the Meta-Stamp Pockets catalog') and the resource ('by keyword, creator name, or content category'). It distinguishes itself from siblings by noting that this is for discovery before pulling content, and explicitly says 'Does NOT retrieve content — use pull_content with the returned pocket_id to access actual content.'

  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?

  Provides explicit guidance: 'Use this tool when an AI agent needs to discover available licensed content before pulling it. Ideal for finding relevant pockets when the agent knows what topic or creator it needs but not the specific pocket ID.' It also tells the agent what not to use it for and directs to pull_content.

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

• pull_contentA
  4.8/5.0
  Behavior5/5

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

  No annotations provided, so description fully covers behavioral traits: requires Bearer token, unauthenticated returns 401, metered charge ($0.001–$0.25), transaction logged for royalty distribution, and returns full content with provenance metadata.

  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?

  Concise single paragraph with front-loaded purpose, followed by usage guidelines and behavioral details. Every sentence provides necessary information without fluff.

  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?

  Given no output schema and no annotations, the description is quite complete: explains auth, cost, logging, return content. Could mention error cases (e.g., invalid pocket_id), but overall covers the essential context.

  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?

  Schema covers both parameters (100% coverage), but description adds value: pocket_id format (24-char hex) and source (from search/list), query is optional natural language focus. These details help agent use parameters correctly.

  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 'Pull licensed creator content from a specific pocket by ID', using a specific verb and resource. Distinctly differentiates from siblings by noting that browsing/discovery should use search_pockets or list_pockets.

  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 provides use cases (retrieving verified content for generation, RAG, training) and explicitly states when NOT to use (browsing/discovery) with alternative tool names. Also mentions authentication requirement.

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

• list_pocketsA
  4.9/5.0
  Behavior5/5

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

  No annotations present, but description fully discloses that the tool does not retrieve content, requires a Bearer token, returns a paginated list, and lists the fields included. No contradictions.

  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?

  Multiple sentences but each adds essential information: purpose, usage alternative, limitations, auth, and return structure. Front-loaded with main action.

  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?

  For a listing tool with two optional params and no output schema, the description covers functionality, filtering, auth, pagination, and return fields completely. No gaps.

  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?

  Schema coverage is 100% so baseline 3. Description adds value by explaining that creator_id filters by unique identifier, and that limit defaults to 50 with a max of 200 for catalog browsing, beyond just repeating schema descriptions.

  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 clearly states the tool lists all available content pockets, optionally filtered by creator. It distinguishes from siblings by specifying that search_pockets is for specific topics and pull_content retrieves actual content.

  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 says to use this tool for browsing the full catalog or by creator, and to prefer search_pockets for specific topics. Provides clear when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance.

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