Get job seeker statistics (Stellensuchende) from SECO, covering broader categories beyond unemployment to assess full labor market challenges.

Instructions

Get job seeker (Stellensuchende) statistics from SECO/AMSTAT.

Stellensuchende is a broader category than unemployed (Arbeitslose) – it includes people in retraining programs, temporary employment programs, and other ALV programs. Important for understanding the full scope of labor market challenges.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, so safety is covered. The description adds valuable context by explaining the inclusive nature of 'Stellensuchende', which helps agents understand what the data represents.

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 short, focused sentences: the first states the core function, the second provides essential context. No unnecessary words or repetition.

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 a full output schema and high schema coverage, the description adequately explains the tool's context. Minor gap: no explicit mention of when not to use this tool over siblings.

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% with clear descriptions for both parameters (canton and response_format). The description does not add parameter-specific details, which is acceptable when schema is thorough.

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?

Clearly states 'Get job seeker statistics' and distinguishes 'Stellensuchende' from 'unemployed', making the tool's purpose distinct from sibling tools like seco_get_unemployment_overview.

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?

Implies use for understanding broader labor market challenges, but does not explicitly state when to avoid or list alternatives. The context signal of sibling tools provides indirect differentiation.

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