Find Implementations

find-implementations
Read-onlyIdempotent

Locates types and members that implement a resolved interface or member, returning symbol references so you can inspect concrete implementations in selected projects or the loaded solution.

Instructions

Finds implementations of a resolved interface or member and returns symbol references. Use this to locate implementing types or members; use find-overrides for overrides of a virtual or abstract member, or find-references for source usages. Searches projects selected by scope, or the loaded solution when scope is omitted. Returns up to 100 implementations by default; check implementations.hasMore before treating the results as complete.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
scopeNoSelects projects to search; a document scope searches its containing project. Omitted searches the loaded solution.
symbolYesProvide exactly one of location or documentationCommentId.
workspaceNoProvide workspaceId, alias, path, or any combination.
expectedSnapshotNoEcho the snapshot returned with the data or transaction state used to construct this request.
implementationsLimitNoCaps returned distinct implementation symbols. Omitted or null uses 100; zero returns no implementations.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior, so safety is covered. The description adds real value beyond that: the default cap of 100 results and the instruction to check implementations.hasMore before treating results as complete — a truncation trait not obvious from the schema. It stops short of describing ordering or whether partial results are stable across snapshots.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Three sentences, front-loaded with purpose, then routing, then scoping/pagination caveat. Every sentence carries information; the only mild redundancy is repeating the solution-scope default already stated in the schema for scope.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a read-only query tool with a rich nested schema and an output schema, this covers everything an agent needs: what it returns (references), how to pick it over siblings, which projects get searched, and how to detect truncation. Return-value detail is correctly delegated to the output schema.

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% and the schema already documents scope defaults, implementationsLimit default of 100, and zero-means-none behavior. The description restates the scope default and result cap, which reinforces but adds no syntax or constraint detail the schema lacks. Baseline 3 applies when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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?

Opens with a specific verb+resource ('Finds implementations of a resolved interface or member') plus the return shape ('returns symbol references'). It explicitly contrasts itself with find-overrides and find-references, so an agent can distinguish it from the closest siblings without reading any schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

States exactly when to use it ('to locate implementing types or members') and names the two alternatives with the conditions that select them ('overrides of a virtual or abstract member' vs 'source usages'). It also clarifies the scope default (loaded solution when scope is omitted). Nothing is left to inference.

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