yandex_search

Search Yandex web results for a query, returning titles, URLs, and snippets with page-based pagination; retry on 503 when captcha challenges block requests.

Instructions

Search Yandex web results. Returns organic Yandex web results for a query: title, destination URL, display URL, and snippet, with page-based pagination. Advertisements are not returned. Yandex challenges a portion of requests with a captcha; the service retries and returns 503 if every attempt is challenged, so callers should retry on 503. Results are localized by Yandex to the location the request is made from.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden and does well: it names returned fields, states ads are excluded, documents pagination, explains captcha retry behavior and 503 failure, and notes location-based result localization.

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?

The description is front-loaded with purpose, then moves through return shape, pagination, exclusions, failure behavior, and localization. Every sentence adds useful information with no waste.

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 two-parameter search tool with no output schema, the description covers return fields, pagination, advertisement exclusion, reliability behavior, and localization. An agent has enough to invoke it and handle common failures.

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 coverage is 100%, so the query and page parameters are already documented. The description adds only a brief mention of page-based pagination, matching the baseline for full schema coverage.

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: 'Search Yandex web results,' and then clarifies it returns organic Yandex web results. The Yandex-specific scope distinguishes it from the many non-Yandex search siblings.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for Yandex web searches but does not explicitly compare it with alternatives like google_search, bing_search, or yandex_suggest. The retry-on-503 note is operational guidance, not tool-selection guidance.

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