Get the signed-in OneHome user profile

onehome_get_user
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieves the OneHome user profile and attached consumer-share groups. Falls back to session data when GraphQL access is denied for magic-link users.

Instructions

Returns the OneHome user profile + the consumer-share groups attached. For full agent / registered users, queries the GraphQL user endpoint. For magic-link consumer-share sessions (where user { } is access-denied), falls back to the data captured during the checkToken exchange — email, contact id, group/savedSearch ids, and the agent who shared with you.

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 OneHome's payload untouched. No field projection: this server has no verified record of which OneHome fields matter, and inventing one would risk dropping a field a caller needs.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and idempotentHint, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable behavioral context: the fallback mechanism for magic-link sessions and the reason (user {} access-denied). This goes beyond annotations and clarifies what data is returned in the fallback.

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, front-loaded with the core purpose, then a concise explanation of the fallback. No wasted words; every sentence adds information.

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 getter with no output schema, the description explains both execution paths and lists the key fields returned in the fallback. It lacks explicit error behavior or auth requirements, but annotations cover the safety profile. Complete enough for a single-parameter read tool.

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 single 'view' parameter is fully documented in the schema. The description does not add extra semantics, but the schema suffices. Baseline 3 applies because the schema carries the burden.

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 clearly states it returns the OneHome user profile plus consumer-share groups, which is specific and not a tautology. It distinguishes the tool's scope (user profile) from siblings like onehome_get_groups, though it doesn't name them explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It explains two execution modes (full agent vs magic-link) but does not state when to prefer this over onehome_get_session_context or other siblings. The agent must infer usage from the resource name.

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