Get Detailed System Information for Advisor Recommendation

advisor__get_hosts_details_for_rule
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get paginated details of RHEL systems affected by an Advisor recommendation, including system identification and severity counts, with optional filters by RHEL version.

Instructions

Get detailed information about RHEL systems affected by a specific Advisor Recommendation.

Returns paginated system details with comprehensive information about each affected system, including system identification, impact metrics, RHEL version, and last seen timestamps. Each system entry contains hit counts categorized by severity level and incident status.

Call examples: Standard call: {"rule_id": "xfs_with_md_raid_hang|XFS_WITH_MD_RAID_HANG_ISSUE_DEFAULT_KERNEL"} With pagination: {"rule_id": "rule_id", "limit": 20, "offset": 0} Filter by RHEL version: {"rule_id": "rule_id", "rhel_version": "9.4"} Combined filters: {"rule_id": "rule_id", "limit": 50, "offset": 20, "rhel_version": "8.9"}

Input Schema

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, non-destructive, idempotent behavior. The description adds useful context: pagination, filtering by RHEL version, and details about returned data (impact metrics, severity counts). 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?

The description is highly concise: two sentences plus examples. It front-loads the purpose and uses clear, structured examples. No unnecessary words or redundancy.

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 the tool's complexity (pagination, filtering, detailed output) and the presence of an output schema, the description covers all essential aspects: what is returned, input options, and usage patterns.

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 covers 100% of parameters with descriptions. The description enhances understanding with explicit examples showing correct formatting (e.g., rule_id format, combined filters), which adds value beyond the schema alone.

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 the tool's purpose: 'Get detailed information about RHEL systems affected by a specific Advisor Recommendation.' It specifies the verb (get), resource (systems affected by a rule), and scope (detailed info). The name 'detail' differentiates it from sibling 'advisor__get_hosts_hitting_a_rule', which likely provides a simpler list.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description provides call examples but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'advisor__get_hosts_hitting_a_rule'. It lacks guidance on when not to use or context for exclusion.

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