Read-only

Find official Austrian state ordinances by filtering on state, publication number, date range, and full-text search. Retrieve gazette entries from Tirol and other federal states.

Instructions

Search Austrian state ordinance gazettes (Verordnungsblaetter der Laender).

Use this tool to find official publications of state/provincial ordinances. NOTE: Currently only Tirol data is available (since January 1, 2022). Other federal states have not yet published their ordinance gazettes in RIS.

Example queries:

suchworte="Wolf" -> Full-text search
titel="Verordnung" -> Search in title
bundesland="Tirol" -> Filter by state (currently only Tirol has data)
kundmachungsnummer="25" -> Search by publication number
kundmachungsdatum_von="2024-01-01", kundmachungsdatum_bis="2024-12-31" -> Date range

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`limit`	No	Results per page: 10, 20, 50 or 100 (default: 20). Every hit costs about 1k characters of structured payload, so prefer 20 for browsing and 50 for a broad survey; a page that would exceed the payload budget is delivered at the next smaller page size and says so (page_size, query.limit and notice).
`seite`	No	Page number (default: 1)
`titel`	No	Search in title
`suchworte`	No	Full-text search terms
`bundesland`	No	Filter by state (currently only Tirol has data)
`response_format`	No	"markdown" (default) or "json"	markdown
`kundmachungsnummer`	No	Publication number
`kundmachungsdatum_bis`	No	Publication date to (YYYY-MM-DD)
`kundmachungsdatum_von`	No	Publication date from (YYYY-MM-DD)

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`page`	Yes	Page number of this result set (1-based)
`query`	No	Echo of the validated search parameters alongside the tool name — re-issue the call with an incremented "seite" for the next page
`notice`	No	Present when the page was delivered at a smaller size than requested to fit the payload budget — page, page_size and query already describe the delivered page; page with query.limit
`has_more`	Yes	Whether further result pages are available
`documents`	Yes	The documents on this page
`page_size`	Yes	Number of documents per page
`total_hits`	Yes	Total number of documents in RIS matching the search

TDQS

A4.1/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds valuable context: the current data limitation (only Tirol since 2022) and example queries that illustrate expected behavior. It does not contradict annotations and enriches them with operational constraints.

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 well-structured, starting with a clear purpose, then a note on data availability, and finally example queries. It is slightly lengthy but every part earns its place, and the examples are presented compactly. No redundancy or fluff.

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 tool with 9 optional parameters and an output schema, the description adequately covers the main usage patterns and the crucial data limitation. Pagination and response_format are described in the schema, so the description need not repeat them. It is complete enough for an agent to call the tool correctly.

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%, so each parameter has a description. The description goes beyond by providing concrete example queries (suchworte, titel, bundesland, kundmachungsnummer, date range) that demonstrate how parameters combine, adding practical meaning beyond the schema's isolated field descriptions.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Search Austrian state ordinance gazettes (Verordnungsblaetter der Laender).' It also clarifies the scope (state/provincial ordinances) and distinguishes from generic law searches by focusing on ordinance gazettes, though it doesn't explicitly name a sibling alternative.

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 provides clear usage instructions via example queries and notes that only Tirol data is available, implying when the tool is applicable. However, it does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools like ris_landesgesetzblatt or ris_landesrecht, leaving the 'when-not-to-use' guidance implicit rather than explicit.

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