evite_list_messages

Read-only

Fetch messages from an Evite event's Messages tab to review guest posts and event conversation by event ID.

Instructions

List the messages on an Evite event's Messages tab (GET /services/event/v1/{id}/posts/).

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 Evite's payload untouched. No field projection: this server has no verified record of which Evite fields matter, and inventing one would risk dropping a field a caller needs.
event_idYesEvite event id (event_id from evite_list_events).

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
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 the endpoint path and the tab scope, but says nothing about pagination, ordering, or rate limits that a list tool would benefit from disclosing.

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 tight sentence front-loads the verb, resource, and scope, then appends the endpoint. Every clause earns its place with no redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple two-parameter read tool with full schema coverage and readOnly annotations, the description is adequate but thin: it omits result ordering, pagination, and how 'Messages tab' content differs from other message endpoints. No output schema exists, so return-shape expectations are left unstated.

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 both event_id and view are fully documented in the schema, including the compact/full enum semantics. The description adds no parameter-level detail beyond what the schema provides, matching the baseline 3.

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 (List) and resource (messages on an Evite event's Messages tab), and includes the underlying endpoint. It doesn't differentiate from the closest sibling evite_send_message, though the read/write distinction is implied.

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 by 'List the messages on an Evite event's Messages tab' — an agent infers it's for reading event messages — but there is no explicit when-to-use versus evite_send_message or evite_broadcast, and no stated prerequisites beyond needing an event id.

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