get_builder_tasks

Read-only

Identify improvement tasks for idle builders by scanning territory and prioritizing pillaged improvements, unimproved resources, and productive tiles. Use to decide builder assignments each turn.

Instructions

Get a prioritized task board for all your builders.

Scans your territory for tiles needing improvements and matches them
with idle builders. Like the builder lens in the UI — shows what to
build where and which builder is closest.

Priority tiers:
- URGENT: Pillaged improvements (yield loss), unimproved strategic resources
- HIGH: Unimproved luxury/bonus resources
- NORMAL: Empty tiles that could benefit from farms/mines/lumber mills

Call this before issuing builder orders each turn.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true, which is consistent. The description adds behavioral context: scanning tiles and idle builders, matching them, and defining priority tiers. 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?

Description is concise with four sentences, front-loading the purpose, and using bullet-like formatting for tiers. Every sentence is informative.

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 parameters, existing output schema, and clear annotations, the description is complete. It covers what the tool does, when to use it, and what to expect (priority tiers).

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?

No parameters exist (empty schema), so schema coverage is 100% by default. The description adds value by explaining the output (priority tiers) beyond what the empty 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 'Get a prioritized task board for all your builders,' specifying the action and resource. It distinguishes itself from siblings by likening it to the builder lens in the UI, which is unique among many get_* 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 'Call this before issuing builder orders each turn,' providing clear when-to-use guidance. No alternatives are mentioned, but the context implies it's the go-to for builder task prioritization.

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