eb_user

Read-only

Retrieve a public Eventbrite user profile by numeric ID; use eb_me for authenticated user data, including private fields like email.

Instructions

Get a public user profile by id. Use eb_me for the authenticated user (that call also returns private fields like emails).

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.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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 non-obvious behavioral context: this endpoint exposes only public fields, and email-like private data lives on eb_me. It says nothing about rate limits or error behavior, but for a single-resource read that is a minor gap.

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, zero waste, with the core purpose front-loaded and the routing note second. Nothing redundant and nothing 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 two-parameter, annotated, single-resource read tool the description covers purpose, the key sibling disambiguation, and the public/private data boundary. The absence of an output schema is acceptable since the description notes what fields are and aren't returned; only edge details like error cases are absent.

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%, and the schema itself explains the 'view' enum in unusual depth (compact vs full, image stripping, no field projection). The description only echoes 'by id' and adds nothing about 'view', so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Get a public user profile by id') and immediately distinguishes it from the sibling eb_me by contrast. An agent can tell exactly which of the many eb_* user-facing tools this is without opening the schema.

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?

Explicitly names the alternative (eb_me) and the condition that selects it (the authenticated user, including private fields like emails). It implies, but never states outright, that this tool is for other users' public profiles and that self-lookups should go elsewhere. Solid routing guidance with a small inference left to the agent.

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