List Noir library and reference repositories with descriptions and clone status to discover community packages and tools in the Noir ecosystem.

Instructions

List available Noir library and reference repos with descriptions and clone status. Use to discover community packages and tools in the Noir ecosystem.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
categoryNoFilter by category: 'libraries' or 'reference'. Shows both if omitted.
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions listing with descriptions and clone status but does not state that the operation is read-only, whether it requires network access, or any other behavioral traits.

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 action, no redundant information. Every sentence adds value.

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 simple list tool with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description adequately covers purpose and basic output. Minor gap: it doesn't specify if data is live or cached.

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 coverage is 100% with a clear description for the category parameter. The tool description adds no further meaning beyond what the schema provides, 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?

The description clearly states the action (list), the resource (Noir library and reference repos), and what information is provided (descriptions and clone status). It distinguishes itself from siblings like noir_list_examples by specifying repo types.

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?

The description indicates usage for discovery ('Use to discover community packages and tools'), giving context but no explicit when-not-to-use or alternatives. It is adequate but lacks deeper guidance.

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