payhip_read

Reads the current Payhip seller page and returns its text plus numbered buttons, links, and fields so an agent can inspect store content and choose the right element to act on.

Instructions

Read the current Payhip page: its text and numbered buttons, links and fields.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden; it does disclose output shape (text, numbered buttons, links, fields), which is genuinely useful and hints at the indexing scheme other tools consume. It omits read-only framing, whether results are truncated or paginated, and what happens on a non-Payhip or unloaded page.

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?

One front-loaded sentence with the resource first and the returned content after the colon; no redundant restatement of the name or title.

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 no-annotation, no-output-schema read tool this is close to sufficient because the description doubles as a return-value summary. The gap is that the numbering convention and `element` scoping are never tied together for the agent.

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 single `element` parameter is documented as scoping the read, so the schema does the work. The description adds nothing about what an element index means or how it interacts with the numbered output.

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 ("Read") and resource ("the current Payhip page") and enumerates what comes back: text, numbered buttons, links, fields. That content enumeration implicitly separates it from the click/type/open siblings, though no sibling is named explicitly.

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 only implied: an agent can infer this is the inspection step before acting, but the description never says when to prefer it over payhip_status or payhip_guide, nor any precondition (e.g. page must be open).

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