evite_list_messages

Read-only

List messages on an Evite event's Messages tab by providing the event ID. See guest and host conversations for that event in compact or full response.

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

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The readOnlyHint annotation already establishes that this is a safe read operation, and the GET endpoint is consistent with that. The description adds product context ('Messages tab') but does not disclose behavioral details such as pagination, ordering, authentication requirements, or result-size limits, which would be useful given there is no output schema.

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?

The description is a single concise sentence that fronts the action and resource, with the endpoint as a useful parenthetical. No words are wasted and the structure is immediately parseable.

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?

Operation, endpoint, and both parameters are adequately covered, so the tool is callable. However, since there is no output schema, the absence of any indication of what the returned messages look like or whether results are paginated leaves a meaningful gap in context.

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%, with strong parameter documentation: event_id is traced to evite_list_events and view is given a detailed compact/full explanation. The tool description itself adds no parameter-level meaning beyond the schema, so it meets the baseline for schema-covered parameters.

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 a specific verb ('List') and resource ('messages on an Evite event's Messages tab') and includes the exact GET endpoint. It is clearly distinct from sibling send/broadcast tools because it is the only message-listing operation.

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?

The read-only listing intent is clear from the description and GET endpoint, so an agent can infer when to call it. It does not explicitly name alternative tools or exclusion conditions, but the alternatives differ so clearly in action (send/broadcast vs. list) that this is a minor gap.

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