magento_find_observer

Identify and locate event observer classes and events.xml declarations for any Magento event. Pinpoints which listeners respond to a specific event.

Instructions

Find event observers (listeners) for a Magento event. Locates Observer classes and events.xml declarations. See also: magento_find_config with configType=events for raw XML.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It describes what it finds but does not disclose behavioral traits like side effects, performance, or output format. As a read-only lookup tool, minimal 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?

Very concise: two sentences with front-loaded action. No wasted words, efficient and clear.

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

Completeness3/5

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

With a single required parameter and no output schema, the description covers purpose and sibling hint. However, it does not hint at the output format (e.g., list of classes), which would improve completeness for a simple tool.

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 description coverage is 100% with examples. The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides, so a baseline score of 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 tool finds event observers and locates Observer classes and events.xml declarations. It distinguishes from sibling magento_find_config by mentioning an alternative use case.

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?

Provides a 'See also' reference to magento_find_config for raw XML, offering guidance on when to use an alternative. Does not explicitly state when not to use this tool, but sufficient for a single-purpose tool.

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