clio_get_grant

Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetch Clio grant details through the project-bound connector account. Returns the grant data from the governed connector authority.

Instructions

Clio connector operation get_grant (platform tool clio.get_grant).

Routes only through the exact project/account governed connector authority.

Args: arguments: JSON string of arguments for the connector operation. project_id: Authenticated Project UUID. project_ref: Exact project correlation reference. connector_account_ref: Project-bound connector account alias. idempotency_key: Stable business-action identity. effect: Required and must be read; Spring verifies it. approval_ref: Approved platform task UUID when resuming a write.

TDQS

C2.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already disclose readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful context about the exact project/account governed routing requirement and that Spring verifies effect must be 'read'. It also clarifies that approval_ref is for write resumption, which is helpful but not detailed beyond annotations.

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 concise and structured as a clean bulleted parameter list. The opening line is slightly redundant by repeating the operation name and platform tool identifier, but every other sentence earns its place without unnecessary filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The parameter definitions and routing constraint are present, and an output schema exists, so return format is not required. However, the description omits the actual domain action (what a grant is and what retrieval entails) and provides no selection criteria versus sibling operations, leaving an agent without enough context to choose this 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 description coverage is 0%, and the description compensates well by giving each parameter a meaningful explanation: project_id as Authenticated Project UUID, project_ref as exact correlation reference, connector_account_ref as project-bound alias, idempotency_key as stable identity, and effect as required read. The 'arguments' parameter is only described as a JSON string, which is somewhat vague, but overall the parameter semantics are clearly addressed.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose2/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description merely restates the operation name as "Clio connector operation get_grant" and gives a routing constraint, but never explicitly explains that this tool fetches or retrieves a grant. It does not describe what a grant is, what data is returned, or how it differs from a list operation, leaving the core purpose largely implicit.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool instead of alternatives like clio_list_grants, clio_update_grant, or clio_create_grant. The description offers no when-to-use or when-not-to-use conditions, and no reference to sibling tools.

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