List My Beta Features

alterlab_list_my_beta_features
Read-onlyIdempotent

Lists all active beta and GA features on your account as compact slugs so you can verify availability before making API calls that depend on them.

Instructions

List all beta and GA features currently active on your account — a compact slug list for quick checks. Includes all GA features plus any beta features you have opted in to. Use this to verify which features are available before making API calls that require them.

A3.9/5.0
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 the safety profile is covered. The description adds that the result is a compact slug list covering all GA features plus opted-in betas, but says nothing about auth requirements, rate limits, or pagination.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the core action and scope, followed by the intended use. No filler or redundant restatement of the title.

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 zero-parameter read tool with no output schema, the description supplies enough: what is listed, what the output looks like (compact slugs), and why to call it. Minor gaps around auth or result ordering are not material here.

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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is no parameter semantics to explain; the baseline for a parameterless tool is 4. The description correctly implies no inputs are needed.

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?

The description gives a specific verb and resource ("List all beta and GA features currently active on your account") and characterizes the output as a compact slug list. It is clear what the tool returns, though it does not explicitly distinguish itself from the sibling alterlab_list_beta_features.

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 states a concrete use case: verify which features are available before making API calls that require them. That is clear contextual guidance, but it offers no explicit when-not-to-use conditions or named alternatives.

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