list_providers

Read-onlyIdempotent

Lists workspace-scoped provider instances with status, limits, expiration, and reset flags so you can find provider slugs for workspace-level updates.

Instructions

List workspace-scoped provider instances and their limits or status. Use this to find provider slugs for workspace-level updates; use list_integrations for the org-level source connection. Returns total plus provider name, slug, integration, status, limits, expiration, and reset flags.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
page_sizeNoNumber of results per page (max 100, default 50)
current_pageNoZero-based page number; the first page is 0
workspace_idNoWorkspace ID - required when using organization admin keys, optional with workspace API keys

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
okYesWhether the tool call succeeded and returned structured data
dataNoStructured success payload when ok is true
errorNoStructured error payload when ok is false

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint, so the safety profile is covered. The description's extra value is the enumeration of returned fields (total, name, slug, integration, status, limits, expiration, reset flags), which is largely duplicated by the existing output schema. It adds little behavioral context beyond what structured fields provide.

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, front-loaded with the resource and scope, then the routing guidance, then the return contents. No filler or restated title.

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?

Scope, alternative, and returned data are all covered, and an output schema exists so return values need no elaboration. Minor gap: no note on permission/key-type implications despite workspace_id being conditionally required, but overall complete for a list tool.

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%, and each of the three pagination/workspace parameters is fully documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter-level detail (e.g., which key type requires workspace_id), so baseline 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource with scope ('workspace-scoped provider instances') plus what it exposes (limits or status). This is clearly distinguishable from siblings like list_integrations, list_analytics_group_providers, and get_provider without inspecting their schemas.

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 names the use case ('find provider slugs for workspace-level updates') and names the alternative ('use list_integrations for the org-level source connection') along with the condition that selects it. Both when-to-use and when-to-use-something-else are stated.

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