toolset_report

Reports active toolsets, registration modules, and the live registered tool count to show how much surface is exposed right now. Use for discovery.

Instructions

Report the active toolsets and registration modules, plus the live registered tool count — answers "how much surface is exposed right now". Discovery set; always available. Also see find_tool / inspect_tool.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations only carry destructiveHint=false, so the description supplements it with the meaningful behavioral trait that this is an always-available discovery tool. A return schema exists, so return format need not be described. It stops short of explicitly confirming read-only, keeping it at 4.

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?

Three tight sentences, front-loaded with the purpose, followed by availability context and the sibling pointer. There is no filler, and the framing question aids quick scanning.

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 one-parameter, zero-required introspection tool with a full output schema and near-minimal annotations, the description covers purpose, availability, and alternatives adequately. An explicit read-only statement would complete it.

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 the single response_format parameter is fully documented in the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies. The description adds no format guidance beyond what the schema already provides.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Report the active toolsets and registration modules, plus the live registered tool count') and even frames it with a plain-language question it answers. It is clearly distinguishable from find_tool and inspect_tool, which it names.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives useful context ('Discovery set; always available') and points to the alternative tools find_tool / inspect_tool, but does not state explicitly when to reach for this report versus those siblings. Clear context with no exclusions, so a 4 rather than a 5.

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