datasets_steam_games_search

Search Steam game catalog records by title, developer, publisher, genre, tag, price, reviews, platform, and release year; sort and filter results.

Instructions

Search the Steam games dataset. Searches enriched public Steam catalog records stored in a search index. price_tier enum: free, under5, 5to15, 15to30, 30to60, over60. review_tier enum: overwhelmingly_positive, very_positive, positive, mostly_positive, mixed, mostly_negative, negative, very_negative, overwhelmingly_negative, insufficient. Sort enum: relevance, owners_desc, reviews_desc, review_score_desc, ccu_desc, metacritic_desc, price_asc, price_desc, release_desc, release_asc.

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the behavioral disclosure burden. It mentions 'enriched public Steam catalog records stored in a search index' but doesn't disclose pagination limits, default sort order, result format, or that all parameters are optional. It lacks critical behavioral context for a search tool.

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?

The description is concise and starts with a clear purpose statement. However, it spends a significant portion listing enum values that are redundant with the schema. It could be more front-loaded with essential information, but it remains efficiently short.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a tool with 29 optional parameters and no output schema, the description is notably incomplete. It doesn't explain default behavior (e.g., default sort, default page size), result structure, or common usage patterns. The agent is left without sufficient context to effectively use such a complex search 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%, so the schema already documents all parameters thoroughly. The description adds little beyond repeating enum values (price_tier, review_tier, sort) that are already in the schema. It doesn't explain parameter interactions or provide examples, so baseline 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 clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Search the Steam games dataset.' It identifies the verb and resource precisely. However, it doesn't differentiate from sibling tools like datasets_steam_games_facets or datasets_steam_games_item, relying on the name to disambiguate.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It doesn't mention when not to use it, exclusions, or how it differs from other Steam dataset tools. The description only states what it does, leaving the agent to infer usage context.

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