CatchAll (by NewsCatcher)

Official

pull_results

Retrieve clustered, validated web results from a submitted job. Get partial output while job is active, then full results when completed, iterating pages as needed.

Instructions

Retrieve the results of a job.

Can be called before completion for partial results, or after completion for the full set. Returns clustered, validated, and enriched web results. While job status is active, call this repeatedly (typically page=1) to refresh partial output. When job reaches completed, iterate all pages. If job fails, call once more to capture any partial output.

Input Schema

page_sizeNoNumber of records returned per page (default: 100, max: 1000).

Behavior5/5

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

No annotations exist, so description carries full burden. It fully discloses behavior: partial results, pagination, handling of active/completed/failed states, and return format (clustered, validated, enriched web results). No contradictions.

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?

Five sentences, front-loaded with purpose, every sentence adds value. No fluff. Clear structure with state-specific guidance.

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?

Given 4 parameters, presence of output schema, and multiple siblings, the description is complete. Covers state handling, pagination, and result nature. No gaps.

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 description coverage is 100% with each parameter described. The description adds context about pagination and job states, plus the output nature, but the schema already explains the parameters well. Slight extra value.

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 clearly states 'Retrieve the results of a job' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like 'pull_job_csv' and 'get_job_status' by focusing on retrieving results in general.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Provides explicit guidance: call before completion for partial results, after completion for full set, iterate pages when completed, call once on failure. Also mentions pagination and refreshing partial output.

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