safari_navigate_and_read

Navigate to a URL and immediately retrieve its page content, saving one round trip by combining two actions into one.

Instructions

Navigate to a URL and return the page content in one step — saves 1 full round-trip vs navigate+read_page. Use instead of safari_navigate + safari_read_page.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description must convey behavioral traits. It indicates navigation and page reading, but does not mention side effects like page load waits, JavaScript execution, or potential destructive actions (e.g., form submissions). Adequate but minimal.

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 concise sentences with no redundant information. The first sentence states action and benefit, the second provides usage guidance. Efficiently conveys key points.

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?

Given the combined nature and good schema descriptions, the description is largely complete. It covers the main purpose and usage. Missing details like return format or error handling are minor given the context.

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?

Input schema has 100% description coverage, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides (e.g., url, maxLength, timeout).

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?

Description clearly states it navigates to a URL and returns page content in one step, distinguishing it from the separate safari_navigate and safari_read_page tools.

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 'Use instead of safari_navigate + safari_read_page', providing clear when-to-use guidance and highlighting the efficiency benefit of saving a round-trip.

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