Farm Administrators

ras_farm_get_administrators
Read-onlyIdempotent

List RAS farm administrator accounts with usernames, roles, permissions, and group membership to audit admin access, verify role assignments, and review who controls the farm.

Instructions

List RAS farm administrator accounts — usernames, roles, permissions, group membership. Use this to audit admin access, verify role assignments, or review who has administrative control of the farm.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
limitNoMax rows after filtering. Default 50, max 200. Prefer narrowing with `filter` over raising the limit.
fieldsNoTop-level keys to keep on each row. Unknown keys are dropped. Use this to shrink large responses to only the columns you need.
filterNoEquality filter on top-level fields (AND across keys). String values match case-insensitively.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, and open-world behavior, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds the shape of what is returned, but says nothing about pagination behavior or result size, which is the main remaining unknown for a list tool.

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?

Two tight sentences with no filler, and the resource scope is front-loaded ahead of the use cases. Slightly repetitive in that the use-case clause restates the same audit theme three ways, 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?

With no output schema, the description usefully enumerates the fields returned, and annotations carry the safety profile while the schema documents all three optional parameters. The only omission is any note on result volume or truncation behavior.

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 schema parameters (limit, fields, filter) are already well documented inline. The description adds no additional meaning about filtering, limiting, or field selection, so the baseline 3 applies.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource ("List RAS farm administrator accounts") and enumerates the returned content (usernames, roles, permissions, group membership). No sibling tool covers admin accounts, and the scope is unambiguous without opening the schema.

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?

It gives three concrete use cases: auditing admin access, verifying role assignments, and reviewing who holds administrative control. That is clear context, though it names no exclusions or alternative tools (and no sibling competes for this data).

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