land_resources_taxes

Retrieve the resource-tax record for a Splinterlands land deed by plot ID or deed UID, returning the upstream taxes and capacity values exactly as provided.

Instructions

Get the resource-tax record the upstream returns for one deed, as GET /land/resources/taxes/{deedUID} returns it. A successful response is {status, data}, where data is one object carrying taxes and capacity. taxes was null on all three real deeds measured; no populated taxes array was ever observed. A fabricated deed id returned taxes:[] and capacity:0, while each of the three real deed ids returned taxes:null and capacity:1000000, so those measured real and fabricated responses are distinguishable. capacity was 1000000 on all three real deeds measured. That is either a shared cap or a field that does not vary by deed; one probe cannot tell those apart, so this description does not call it the deed's capacity. The taxes and capacity values are returned unchanged; this server does not interpret, total or compare them, and a change in their wire type would be reported as a malformed response rather than converted silently. The required deedUID is a path segment, so omitting it reaches no handler and is reported as an upstream routing failure. Supply exactly one plot_id (numeric or display label) or deed_uid; the original UID spelling is also accepted. Reference resolution may add one verified deed GET before the target GET, with a hard two-request limit. Populated resolved results include all three plot identities and resolution freshness.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does so extensively. It discloses the response envelope, the observed null vs empty-array behavior, capacity quirks, that values are returned unchanged, and failure modes like omitting deedUID causing routing failure. This is far beyond typical transparency.

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 long but well-organized: purpose first, then response shape, observed data behavior, parameter rules, and resolution behavior. Some hedging around capacity could be tightened, but every sentence carries useful information.

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 no output schema and no annotations, the description provides the response shape, observed examples, parameter edge cases, and resolution request limits. An agent has enough to call the tool correctly and interpret the result without additional context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, but the description fully compensates. It explains that plot_id can be numeric or a display label, that deed_uid is an accepted UID form, and that deedUID acts as a required path segment. It also adds the 'exactly one' constraint that the schema does not express.

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 names a specific verb ('Get') and a specific resource ('resource-tax record for one deed'), and it pinpoints the upstream endpoint GET /land/resources/taxes/{deedUID}. This clearly separates it from the many land_resources_* sibling tools by scope and resource.

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 explicit input rules: supply exactly one plot_id (numeric or display label) or deed_uid, and explains that reference resolution may add one verified deed GET with a hard two-request limit. However, it does not name sibling alternatives or state when not to use this tool, so it lacks explicit exclusion guidance.

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