get_block

Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve block information from the Klever blockchain by block number (nonce). Without a nonce, returns the latest block with hash, timestamp, proposer, and transaction count.

Instructions

Get block information from the Klever blockchain by nonce (block number). If no nonce is provided, returns the latest block. Returns hash, timestamp, proposer, number of transactions, and other block metadata.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nonceNoBlock number (nonce). Omit to get the latest block.
networkNoNetwork to query. Options: "mainnet", "testnet", "devnet", "local". Defaults to server default (mainnet).
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true. Description adds value by listing returned fields (hash, timestamp, proposer, transactions count, metadata). No contradiction.

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 verb and resource, no redundancy. Every sentence is informative and earns its place.

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 read-only tool with good annotations and schema, the description is complete enough. It mentions return fields despite no output schema. Could add detail about pagination or errors, but not necessary.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. Description adds meaning: omitting nonce returns latest block; network defaults to mainnet. This provides context beyond schema.

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?

Description clearly states it retrieves block information from the Klever blockchain by nonce (block number). The verb 'get' and resource 'block' are specific. It distinguishes from sibling tools like get_transaction, get_account, etc.

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?

States when to use: to get block by nonce or latest if omitted. Does not explicitly mention when not to use, but context from sibling tools provides alternatives. Adequate guidance.

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