qui_get_cross_seed_local_matches

Read-only

Fetches local cross-seed matches for a torrent by providing its instance ID and hash. Use it to find identical files already present in qBittorrent for efficient cross-seeding.

Instructions

Call qui's GET /cross-seed/torrents/{instanceID}/{hash}/local-matches endpoint. Pass path variables directly in arguments, query values in arguments.params, and a JSON request body in arguments.body.

Behavior3/5

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

The readOnlyHint annotation already covers safety, and the description adds the parameter-passing convention (path vars, query, body). It doesn't disclose response behavior, error cases, or what the response contains, but the annotation lowers the bar.

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?

One sentence, front-loaded with the endpoint, no filler. Every part contributes useful information about how to invoke the tool.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The presence of an output schema and read-only annotation reduces the need to describe return values and safety. Still, the description lacks a functional statement of what local matches are and when to use the tool, making it adequate but not complete.

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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description does compensate by explaining how to organize arguments into path, query, and body. However, it doesn't define the specific parameters (instanceID, hash) or their types, leaving some ambiguity.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description identifies the exact HTTP method and endpoint path, making the operation clear. However, it doesn't explicitly state what 'local matches' are or how this tool differs functionally from sibling cross-seed tools beyond the endpoint name.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description gives no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no exclusions, and no context about prerequisites. It simply instructs to call the endpoint.

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