GTM trigger

gtm_get_trigger
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve a Google Tag Manager trigger's full configuration—type, filters, and fingerprint—to inspect it or prepare an update in a workspace. Read-only.

Instructions

One trigger of a workspace in full (type, filters) with its fingerprint (needed to update it). Read only.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
client_idNoClient id from clients_list. Required when several clients are registered; empty uses the only client
trigger_idYesNumeric trigger id
workspace_idYesNumeric GTM workspace id (gtm_workspace_status lists them); never the Default Workspace for a change

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint and destructiveHint=false, so 'Read only' restates structured data. The one piece of added value is that the returned fingerprint is required for updates, which explains why an agent would call this before a write.

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?

A single compact sentence with the resource and scope front-loaded and no filler. The stacked parentheticals make it slightly dense but nothing is wasted.

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?

No output schema exists, and the description does state the shape of the return (type, filters, fingerprint), which is the key missing piece. Combined with 100% schema coverage and annotations carrying the safety profile, it is nearly complete, though error/permission behavior is unstated.

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 100% and all three parameters (client_id, trigger_id, workspace_id) are documented in the schema, including the multi-client fallback and the Default Workspace caveat. The description adds no parameter-level detail, so the baseline 3 applies.

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?

Names a specific verb (get) and resource (one trigger of a workspace) and even scopes the payload (type, filters, fingerprint). An agent can separate it from gtm_get_tag and gtm_get_variable by resource, though no sibling is named explicitly.

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 parenthetical 'needed to update it' implies the fetch-then-upsert flow (presumably feeding gtm_plan_trigger_upsert), which is useful context, but there is no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or named alternative.

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