eb_event_attendee

Read-only

Retrieve an individual event attendee by attendee ID to get barcode, profile answers, and check-in state. Use this read-only lookup when you need a specific attendee's full record.

Instructions

Get one attendee of an event by id (barcode, profile answers, check-in state).

No field projection on this tool: this server has no verified record of which Eventbrite fields matter here, and inventing one would risk dropping a field a caller needs.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The readOnlyHint annotation already covers the safety profile, and the description adds useful output context by mentioning barcode, profile answers, and check-in state. There is no contradiction between the description and the annotation.

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 a single focused sentence with the operation and key data points front-loaded. The parenthetical adds meaningful detail without waste.

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?

For a simple single-attendee getter backed by a readonly annotation and a fully documented schema, the description is nearly complete. It could be improved by explicitly routing to the plural list tool for collection queries, but nothing essential blocks a correct call.

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 schema description coverage is 100%, with event_id and attendee_id documented and the view parameter thoroughly explained. The tool description does not add parameter-specific detail beyond saying 'by id', so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('one attendee of an event by id'), and the parenthetical adds the attendee data returned. It clearly implies a singular lookup, which distinguishes it from the plural sibling eb_event_attendees, though it does not name that alternative explicitly.

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 'by id' phrasing establishes a clear calling context: use this when you already have an event_id and attendee_id. It does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives such as eb_event_attendees for listing attendees, so it falls short of a 5.

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