read_doc

Retrieve full text of motorsport event documents by title or slug. Use optional event code and page range to get specific sections.

Instructions

Read a document's full text by slug or title (fuzzy matched).

Args: name: Slug or title, e.g. 'marshals event information booklet' or '2026-mxm-event-sat-v1-a6-device'. event: Optional event code to disambiguate. pages: Optional page range like '3-5' or '12' to return only those '## Page N' sections (recommended for long documents).

Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It reveals that matching is fuzzy, that event codes help disambiguate, and that pages restricts output to specific '## Page N' sections. It lacks behavior on error handling or not-found cases, but still adds significant transparency.

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 succinct and well-structured: a one-sentence purpose followed by a concise parameter list with examples. Every sentence contributes without 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 the presence of an output schema, the description does not need to explain return values. It adequately covers purpose and parameters, making the tool usable. Minor omissions like behavior on ambiguous matches or no results prevent a perfect score.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Despite 0% schema coverage, the description fully explains all three parameters with concrete examples and purposes. Name, event, and pages are each clearly defined, making it easy for an agent to provide correct inputs.

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 reads a document's full text by slug or title, with fuzzy matching. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like list_docs or search, making the purpose unambiguous.

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 provides clear context for when to use the tool: to retrieve a document's full text, with optional disambiguation by event and page range limiting. It does not explicitly reference alternatives or exclusions, preventing a higher score.

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