Instructions

Get status for an async Publer job such as scheduling or media import.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
jobIdYes
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, and the description only says 'Get status' without revealing behavioral traits like idempotency, expected response structure, or whether repeated requests are safe. For a read-only tool, minimal detail is acceptable but still lacks clarity.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, which is concise but lacks structure. It front-loads the purpose but omits essential details that could be briefly included.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the simple input (one required string) and no output schema, the description should at least mention the nature of the returned status (e.g., job state, progress) to help the agent interpret results. The current description is insufficient for an agent to use the tool correctly without additional context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The schema has 0% description coverage for parameters. The required parameter 'jobId' is not explained in the description. The description should clarify that jobId is the identifier returned when initiating the async job, but it does not.

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 identifies the verb 'Get status' and the resource 'async Publer job', with specific examples like scheduling or media import. It distinguishes this tool from siblings that perform creation or listing operations.

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 is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., polling or checking via other means). The description does not mention prerequisites, such as having previously started an async job, or indicate when not to use it.

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