eb_series_events

Read-only

List all occurrences in a recurring event series using its series ID. Filter by status and paginate to get the full schedule.

Instructions

List the occurrences of a recurring event series. Search results and events carry a series_id when they belong to one.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
viewNoResponse shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact strips image/avatar URLs from the response; "full" returns Eventbrite's payload untouched. 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.
statusNoEvent status filter (default all)
series_idYesNumeric series id (from an event/search result)
continuationNoPagination continuation token from a previous response

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, so the read-only nature is covered. The description adds that series_id appears on search results and events, which is helpful provenance context. However, it does not disclose response shape, pagination behavior, or what 'occurrences' includes beyond the basic list operation; overall it provides modest additional transparency beyond annotations.

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 short sentences, front-loaded with the core action. The second sentence adds relevant input-origin context. No filler, no repetition of schema details, and every sentence earns its place.

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 tool's low complexity, full parameter schema coverage, and readOnly annotation, the description is nearly complete for using the tool correctly. It lacks explicit alternative routing and output-shape details, but the absence of an output schema is partially mitigated by the view parameter documentation. Overall, the core information needed to call and understand the tool is present.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents series_id, view, status, and continuation clearly. The description's mention that search results and events carry series_id essentially repeats the schema's 'from an event/search result'. It adds no new parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 states an exact action and resource: 'List the occurrences of a recurring event series.' This clearly identifies what the tool does and distinguishes it from single-event tools like eb_event or eb_event_details by focusing on series occurrences. It also explains where series_id comes from, adding useful context without ambiguity.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage when you have a series_id and need its occurrences, and it tells readers that search results and events carry series_id. However, it does not explicitly compare this tool to sibling tools such as eb_event or eb_search_events, nor does it state when not to use it. The usage context is present but not fully explicit.

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