Get the authenticated account

get_current_user
Read-onlyIdempotent

Identify the authenticated account and its admin status to resolve 403 permission errors before using admin-only tools.

Instructions

Returns the account WOODPECKER_TOKEN belongs to, including whether it is an instance administrator. This is the first thing to call when a tool answers 403: the admin-only tools need admin=true here.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful context beyond annotations: token ownership, the admin boolean, and the diagnostic 403 workflow.

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 tight sentences with no filler. The primary result is stated first, followed by an immediately actionable usage tip, making the description both compact and well-structured.

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?

With an empty input schema, an output schema present, and annotations covering safety, the description includes all essential context: what is returned and when to call the tool. Nothing critical is missing.

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?

The tool has zero parameters and schema description coverage is 100% by default, so the baseline is 4. There is no parameter meaning for the description to add.

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?

States precisely what it returns: the account associated with WOODPECKER_TOKEN, plus admin status. This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_user or list_users, which operate on other users.

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?

Gives explicit when-to-use guidance: call this first when a tool returns 403, because admin-only tools require admin=true. It doesn't explicitly name alternatives or exclusions, but the 'current account' scope makes the intended context clear.

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