producthunt_product

Retrieve Product Hunt product details by slug or numeric ID. If you only know the product name, find its slug first with search.

Instructions

Retrieve Product Hunt product details. Returns the core Product Hunt product details. The path takes an exact Product Hunt slug; if you only know the product name, look the slug up first with /producthunt/search (live) or /datasets/producthunt-products/search (indexed). Unknown slugs return 404, and that 404 is cached for one hour.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses that slugs must be exact, that unknown slugs return 404, and that the 404 is cached for one hour — non-obvious operational behavior. It does not mention auth requirements, rate limits, or what the response contains beyond "core details," which keeps it from a 5.

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?

Front-loaded with the action, then usage routing, then failure behavior — good ordering. Slightly redundant: "Retrieve Product Hunt product details" is immediately restated as "Returns the core Product Hunt product details," which is filler rather than an added fact.

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?

For a one-param read tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description covers the key operational facts an agent needs: input form (exact slug), fallback workflow, and failure/caching behavior. It does not describe the shape of the returned product data, but with no output schema that omission is acceptable rather than critical.

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% (the single `id` param is documented as "Product Hunt slug or numeric ID"), so the baseline would be 3. The description adds meaning by stressing that the path requires an exact slug and by explaining the name-to-slug resolution workflow and the 404 consequence, which is more than the schema conveys.

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 ("Retrieve Product Hunt product details") and distinguishes itself from sibling endpoints by naming the search tools an agent should use to resolve a name into a slug. An agent can tell this apart from producthunt_search, producthunt_reviews, and producthunt_alternatives without opening any schema.

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?

Gives explicit routing: use this tool only when you have an exact slug, and if you only have a product name, first call `/producthunt/search` (live) or `/datasets/producthunt-products/search` (indexed). This is a clear when-to-use / when-to-use-something-else rule with named alternatives.

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