List recipe share links

list_share_tokens
Read-onlyIdempotent

List public recipe share links with their expiry dates to identify which recipes are accessible without an account.

Instructions

Lists the public share links that currently exist, with the recipe each one exposes and when it expires. Anyone holding such a link can read the recipe without an account.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent behavior. The description adds useful context about share links being publicly accessible without an account, which goes beyond the annotation metadata and helps the agent understand the security model.

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 two sentences with no redundancy. The main purpose is stated first, followed by a brief explanation of what the share links are, making it efficient and well-structured.

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?

The description states what is listed (share links, recipe, expiration) and there is an output schema to cover the response format. It is reasonably complete for a simple list operation, though it does not mention any filtering behavior beyond the schema parameter.

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?

The only parameter 'recipe' already has a full description in the schema ('Restrict the result to one recipe'). The tool description provides no additional meaning or usage notes for this parameter, so it adds nothing beyond the 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?

The description clearly states the tool lists all public share links with their associated recipe and expiration date. This distinctly separates it from sibling tools that create or delete share tokens.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description does not explicitly mention when to use this tool versus alternatives like create_share_token or delete_share_token. The purpose is obvious, but no direct contrast or conditions for choice are provided.

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