list_maps

Retrieve maps from a Kanka campaign with pagination and filters for empty or filled entries; limit page size and omit long entry text to keep responses compact.

Instructions

List maps. Use per_page to keep responses small enough to be returned whole, and entry_filter to return only records whose entry is empty or filled.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
pageNoPage number (default 1).
entriesNoInclude full entry/entry_parsed text (default true). Set false to omit the long entry fields, shrink the response, and get a has_entry boolean per record instead.
per_pageNoRecords per page, 1-100. Enforced by this server, so it holds even when the Kanka API returns a different page size. Omit to return the API's own page untouched; when set (or when entry_filter is used) the default is 25 with entries, 100 without.
campaignIdYes
entry_filterNoKeep only records with an empty entry ('empty'), only records with text ('filled'), or all of them ('all', default). Filtering is applied across the whole collection, not just one API page.

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the disclosure burden. It adds useful behavioral context about response size and collection-wide filtering, but it does not explicitly confirm read-only behavior, describe permissions/campaign scoping, or explain the returned record shape.

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 tightly written sentences with no waste. The core purpose is front-loaded, followed by targeted parameter guidance.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The description covers the basic list operation and key pagination/filtering options, which is adequate for a simple collection tool. It omits the required campaign context and does not describe returned map records, leaving some gaps given that there is no output schema.

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 high at 80%, so the baseline is 3. The description mentions per_page and entry_filter but adds little beyond the schema, and it does not clarify page, entries, or the required campaignId parameter.

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 starts with a specific verb and resource: 'List maps.' This clearly distinguishes it from get_map, create_map, update_map, and delete_map. It does not explicitly distinguish list_maps from search or other list_* siblings, so it falls short of a 5.

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?

It gives practical parameter guidance, such as using per_page to keep responses small and entry_filter to narrow records. However, it does not say when to use list_maps instead of alternatives like search or get_map, leaving tool-selection guidance implicit.

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