asa_get_game_log

Retrieve the current game log from an Ark: Survival Ascended server using RCON commands.

Instructions

Run GetGameLog on the Ark: Survival Ascended server.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
serverNameNoConfigured ASA serverName. Required when more than one server is configured.
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description must convey behavioral traits. It only states 'Run GetGameLog' without indicating whether it's read-only, how large the log might be, or error handling. This is insufficient for safe invocation.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it essentially restates the tool name without adding meaningful context. It could be more informative while remaining brief.

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?

Given the lack of output schema, the description fails to explain what the tool returns or how to interpret the log. For a simple tool, it is minimally adequate but leaves gaps about expected output and behavior.

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% for the single parameter, and its description is provided in the schema. The tool description adds no extra semantic value beyond what the schema already offers, so baseline score of 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 runs GetGameLog on the ASA server, which aligns with the name and title. It distinguishes from sibling tools like asa_broadcast or asa_list_players by focusing on log retrieval, but it does not elaborate on the log's content.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any conditions or prerequisites. The agent is left to infer the use case from the tool name alone.

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