get_rpm_limit_value

Retrieves the maximum motor RPM limit setting used when rpm_limit is enabled, allowing verification of safe speed thresholds.

Instructions

Get rpm_limit_value: Maximum motor RPM when rpm_limit is ON. (Requires: USE_RPM_LIMIT) [UINT16, default: 18000]

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

No arguments

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the value is meaningful only when rpm_limit is ON and requires the USE_RPM_LIMIT feature. However, it does not mention whether the operation is safe or has side effects, though it is implied to be a read. Additional details like error conditions or behavior when the feature is off would improve score.

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 extremely concise, consisting of a single line that includes the tool's purpose, prerequisite, data type, and default. Every element serves a clear function with no redundancy.

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?

For a simple getter with no input parameters and no output schema, the description provides all necessary information: what it retrieves, when it applies, the type, and default. No gaps exist for an agent to misuse the tool.

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?

The input schema has no parameters, and schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by stating the return type (UINT16) and default value, which provides context beyond the schema. This compensates for the lack of parameters, so a 4 is warranted.

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 it retrieves the maximum motor RPM when rpm_limit is ON. It specifies the feature requirement (USE_RPM_LIMIT), data type (UINT16), and default value (18000). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_rpm_limit (likely a boolean enable) and set_rpm_limit_value.

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?

The description explicitly states the requirement for USE_RPM_LIMIT feature, guiding when this tool is applicable. It implies it should be used when the rpm_limit feature is enabled. While it does not list alternatives or exclusions, the context of many get_* tools makes its usage clear.

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