eb_ticket_classes

Read-only

Retrieve ticket classes for an Eventbrite event, including ticket name, cost, free or paid status, and on-sale availability. Use it to check pricing and sales status before making purchase or reporting decisions.

Instructions

List an event's ticket classes (name, cost, free/paid, on-sale status).

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.

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 the description's 'List' verb is consistent with that. The description adds little behavioral context beyond the verb and the listed output fields, and it does not mention pagination, ordering, or error behavior; with the annotation carrying the safety profile, 3 is appropriate.

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?

A single, front-loaded sentence that states the action, resource, and key output fields with no filler. Every word 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?

For a low-complexity read-only list operation with one required parameter and a clearly documented optional view parameter, the description plus schema provides enough for an agent to call the tool correctly. The absence of an output schema is partly mitigated by the listed output fields, though pagination/ordering are not addressed.

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 fully documents event_id and view, including a detailed behavioral explanation of the compact/full view semantics. The tool description itself adds no parameter-level information, meeting the baseline rather than exceeding it.

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 (List), a specific resource (an event's ticket classes), and enumerates key output fields (name, cost, free/paid, on-sale status). It is clear enough to distinguish from the sibling eb_ticket_class by the plural scope, though it does not explicitly call out that alternative.

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 intended use is implied by 'List an event's ticket classes': use when you need the collection of ticket classes for a given event_id. However, there is no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and no mention of the singular sibling eb_ticket_class for fetching a single class.

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