email_disposable

Read-onlyIdempotent

Detect disposable email addresses from providers like Guerrilla Mail, Temp Mail, and Mailinator. Use for input validation to block throwaway signups.

Instructions

Check if email address uses a known disposable/temporary provider (Guerrilla Mail, Temp Mail, Mailinator, etc.). Use for input validation to detect throwaway signups; for domain reputation use threat_intel. Companion email-investigation tools: email_mx (deliverability + MX trust), domain_report on the email's domain (full recon), threat_intel (malware-distribution signal on the domain). Free: 30/hr, Pro: 500/hr. Returns {disposable, domain, provider}.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint. The description adds rate limits (Free: 30/hr, Pro: 500/hr) and return structure {disposable, domain, provider}, providing useful behavioral context 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.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is concise (two sentences) and front-loaded with the core purpose. Every sentence adds value, with no wasted words.

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 simplicity (1 param, output schema exists), the description covers purpose, usage, rate limits, return format, and sibling differentiation. It is fully adequate for an AI agent to select and invoke the tool correctly.

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?

The only parameter 'email' has schema coverage 100%, with a description that already includes examples. The tool description does not add significant additional meaning beyond what the input schema provides.

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 checks if an email uses a disposable/temporary provider, lists examples (Guerrilla Mail, Temp Mail, Mailinator), and specifies the use case (input validation for throwaway signups). It distinguishes from sibling tools like threat_intel and email_mx.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly says when to use (input validation) and when not (for domain reputation use threat_intel). It also lists companion tools and their purposes, providing clear guidance on alternatives.

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