export_payroll_settings

Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetches incremental payroll settings updates for bulk sync. Start with a date or continuation token, then keep requesting using the returned token while more data exists.

Instructions

Read the incremental payroll settings export feed for bulk synchronization. Start with a date or omit from to start at the beginning of the feed, continue immediately with continueFrom while hasMore is true, and when false retain it and wait before polling again. includeRecentChanges may return records sooner but can repeat them.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds substantial behavioral context beyond that: incremental feed semantics, continuation token handling, polling/wait behavior, and the fact that records may repeat when `includeRecentChanges` is used. No annotation contradiction exists.

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 compact: two sentences cover purpose, start condition, continuation, termination, waiting behavior, and a caveat. The main purpose is front-loaded, and every sentence adds useful information without filler.

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?

Given the output schema covers return fields, and annotations cover the read-only/idempotent safety profile, the description fully covers the operational details an agent needs: how to begin, how to continue, when to stop, when to wait, and when duplicates may occur. Nothing essential is missing for correct invocation.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters. The description adds extra meaning by explaining how to start with `from` and by warning that `includeRecentChanges` can cause repeated records. This goes beyond the schema without being redundant.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Read the incremental payroll settings export feed for bulk synchronization.' This clearly identifies what the tool does and distinguishes it from the many sibling export_* feeds by naming the exact resource. There is no ambiguity about its role.

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 gives an explicit usage protocol: start with a date or omit `from`, continue with `continueFrom` while `hasMore` is true, and wait after retaining it when false. It also documents the tradeoff of `includeRecentChanges`. It does not name alternative tools explicitly, but the polling and continuation guidance is complete enough to use it correctly.

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