eb_series_events

Read-only

List all occurrences of a recurring Eventbrite event series using a series_id, with optional status and pagination filters to inspect dates.

Instructions

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

Input 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

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds context that events and search results carry a series_id, which is genuinely useful for locating the required input, but it says nothing about pagination behavior or result ordering despite a continuation token being available.

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 sentences, zero waste, with the core action front-loaded and the supporting detail about series_id immediately after. Nothing is padded.

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 read-only list tool with no output schema and annotations covering safety, the description is nearly complete. The main omission is that it never mentions the pagination model implied by the continuation parameter, which an agent would want to know before iterating results.

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 in detail. The description's note about series_id provenance largely repeats what the schema field description already states, adding no new syntax or format guidance.

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?

States a specific verb and resource: list the occurrences of a recurring event series. It also explains where the series_id comes from, which distinguishes it from generic event endpoints like eb_event_details. It stops short of explicitly contrasting itself with the closest sibling, eb_event.

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?

Usage is implied rather than stated: the agent infers it should call this when it has a series_id and wants the occurrences. There is no explicit when-not guidance or named alternative (e.g. eb_event for a single occurrence, eb_search_events for discovery).

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