search_units

Search Warhammer 40K units or Kill Team operatives by name, faction, or keywords. Returns up to 10 matching results with optional points and game mode filters.

Instructions

Search Warhammer 40K units or Kill Team operatives by name, faction, or keywords. Returns a compact list of matching results (max 10).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryYesSearch query — matches against name, faction, and keywords
factionNoOptional faction filter to narrow results (e.g. 'Necrons', 'Aeldari')
max_pointsNoOptional max points filter — only return units costing this many points or fewer (40K only)
game_modeNoGame mode: '40k' (default) searches 40K units, 'kill_team' searches Kill Team operatives
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses the max result limit (10) and default game_mode. However, it does not explicitly state that the tool is read-only or safe, nor mention any other behavioral traits like authentication or rate limits.

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 two sentences, clear, and front-loaded with the action and purpose. Every word earns its place with no redundancy.

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?

Given 4 parameters and no output schema, the description covers the tool's purpose, result limit, and game_mode. It lacks return format details but is sufficient for an agent to use correctly.

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%, so baseline is 3. The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond the schema (e.g., 'compact list' and max 10). It does not provide additional context for parameter syntax or behavior.

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 tool searches Warhammer 40K units or Kill Team operatives by name, faction, or keywords, returning a compact list (max 10). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like lookup_unit (single unit), compare_units (comparison), and search_stratagems.

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 description implies usage for broad searches by specifying a compact list and max 10 results. It does not explicitly state when not to use or alternatives, but the context of siblings provides differentiation.

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