  • output_format: Elige el formato (html, markdown, json o text) - predeterminado: markdown

  • country: Código de país opcional (ej. US, GB, CA) para extracción específica por ubicación

  • wait_before_scraping: Tiempo de espera en milisegundos antes de extraer (0-10000)

  • parser: ID de analizador opcional para extracción especializada

Respuesta (ejemplo):

{
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "{\n  \"id\": \"scrp_...\",\n  \"url\": \"https://example.com\",\n  \"markdown_content\": \"# ...\",\n  \"html_content\": null,\n  \"json_content\": null,\n  \"text_content\": null,\n  \"status\": \"succeeded\",\n  \"timestamp\": \"2025-11-14T12:34:56Z\",\n  \"screenshot_hosted_url\": null,\n  \"page_metadata\": { }\n}"
    }
  ]
}

2. Buscar en la web (search_web)

Busca en la web una consulta determinada y obtén resultados estructurados (no IA, basado en analizadores).

{
  "name": "search_web",
  "arguments": {
    "query": "your search query",
    "country": "US"
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • query: Consulta de búsqueda (obligatorio)

  • country: Código de país opcional para resultados localizados (predeterminado: US)

Respuesta:

  • JSON estructurado (como texto) que representa los resultados basados en analizadores

3. Respuestas (IA) (answers)

Busca en la web y devuelve respuestas impulsadas por IA en la estructura JSON que desees, con fuentes y citas.

{
  "name": "answers",
  "arguments": {
    "task": "Who are the top 5 competitors to Acme Inc. in the EU?",
    "json": "Return a list of the top 5 competitors with name and homepage URL"
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • task: Pregunta o tarea a responder usando datos web (obligatorio)

  • json: Esquema/objeto JSON opcional o una breve descripción de la forma de salida deseada

La respuesta incluye:

  • answer_id, object, task, result (JSON si se proporciona), sources, created

4. Extraer URLs por lotes (batch_scrape_urls)

Extrae hasta 10.000 URLs al mismo tiempo. Perfecto para la extracción de datos a gran escala.

{
  "name": "batch_scrape_urls",
  "arguments": {
    "urls_to_scrape": [
      {"url": "https://example.com/a", "custom_id": "a"},
      {"url": "https://example.com/b", "custom_id": "b"}
    ],
    "output_format": "markdown",
    "country": "US",
    "wait_before_scraping": 500,
    "parser": "@olostep/amazon-product"
  }
}

La respuesta incluye:

  • batch_id, status, total_urls, created_at, formats, country, parser, urls

5. Crear rastreo (create_crawl)

Inicia un rastreo asíncrono que descubre y extrae autónomamente sitios web completos siguiendo enlaces. Devuelve un crawl_id: el rastreo se ejecuta en segundo plano y no devuelve contenido en esta respuesta. Luego debes llamar a get_crawl_results con el crawl_id para consultar el estado y recuperar las páginas extraídas (el mismo patrón de dos pasos que batch_scrape_urls + get_batch_results).

{
  "name": "create_crawl",
  "arguments": {
    "start_url": "https://example.com/docs",
    "max_pages": 25,
    "follow_links": true,
    "output_format": "markdown",
    "country": "US",
    "parser": "@olostep/doc-parser"
  }
}

La respuesta incluye:

  • crawl_id, object, status, start_url, max_pages, follow_links, created, formats, country, parser

Empareja esta llamada con get_crawl_results: no pases un crawl_id a get_batch_results (los rastreos y los lotes son recursos separados).

6. Crear mapa (create_map)

Obtén todas las URLs de un sitio web. Extrae todas las URLs para descubrimiento y análisis.

{
  "name": "create_map",
  "arguments": {
    "website_url": "https://example.com",
    "search_query": "blog",
    "top_n": 200,
    "include_url_patterns": ["/blog/**"],
    "exclude_url_patterns": ["/admin/**"]
  }
}

La respuesta incluye:

  • map_id, object, url, total_urls, urls, search_query, top_n

{
  "name": "get_webpage_content",
  "arguments": {
    "url_to_scrape": "https://example.com",
    "wait_before_scraping": 1000,
    "country": "US"
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • url_to_scrape: La URL de la página web a extraer (obligatorio)

  • wait_before_scraping: Tiempo de espera en milisegundos antes de comenzar la extracción (predeterminado: 0)

  • country: País residencial desde el cual cargar la solicitud (ej. US, CA, GB) (opcional)

Respuesta:

{
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "# Example Website\n\nThis is the markdown content of the webpage..."
    }
  ]
}

8. Obtener URLs de sitios web (get_website_urls)

Busca y recupera URLs relevantes de un sitio web, ordenadas por relevancia según tu consulta.

{
  "name": "get_website_urls",
  "arguments": {
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "search_query": "your search term"
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • url: La URL del sitio web a mapear (obligatorio)

  • search_query: La consulta de búsqueda para ordenar las URLs (obligatorio)

Respuesta:

{
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "Found 42 URLs matching your query:\n\nhttps://example.com/page1\nhttps://example.com/page2\n..."
    }
  ]
}

9. Obtener resultados de lote (get_batch_results)

Recupera los resultados de un trabajo de extracción por lotes enviado previamente usando su batch_id.

{
  "name": "get_batch_results",
  "arguments": {
    "batch_id": "batch_abc123"
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • batch_id: El ID de lote devuelto por batch_scrape_urls (obligatorio)

La respuesta incluye:

  • batch_id, status (processing o completed), total_urls, completed_urls, items (matriz de resultados extraídos por URL con url, custom_id, markdown_content, html_content, json_content, text_content, status, page_metadata)

10. Obtener resultados de rastreo (get_crawl_results)

Recupera el estado y las páginas extraídas para un rastreo asíncrono iniciado con create_crawl. Este es el compañero obligatorio de create_crawl: create_crawl solo inicia el trabajo y devuelve un crawl_id; esta herramienta es cómo realmente obtienes las páginas descubiertas y su contenido.

{
  "name": "get_crawl_results",
  "arguments": {
    "crawl_id": "crawl_abc123",
    "formats": ["markdown"],
    "items_limit": 20,
    "cursor": 0
  }
}

Parámetros:

  • crawl_id: El ID de rastreo devuelto por create_crawl (obligatorio)

  • formats: Matriz de formatos a recuperar por página: markdown, html, json, text (predeterminado: ["markdown"])

  • items_limit: Máximo de páginas para recuperar contenido, 1–100 (predeterminado: 20)

  • cursor: Cursor de paginación en la lista de páginas descubiertas (predeterminado: 0)

  • search_query: Filtro opcional para clasificar/seleccionar páginas por relevancia a una consulta

La respuesta incluye:

  • Mientras está en progreso: crawl_id, status (in_progress), pages_completed, pages_total, y un message que te indica que vuelvas a llamar en ~10 segundos.

  • Cuando se completa: crawl_id, status (completed), pages_returned, next_cursor, has_more, y una matriz pages donde cada entrada tiene url, custom_id y los campos de contenido solicitados (markdown_content, html_content, json_content, text_content).

Manejo de errores

El servidor proporciona un manejo de errores robusto:

  • Mensajes de error detallados para problemas de API

  • Reporte de errores de red

  • Manejo de fallos de autenticación

  • Información sobre límites de tasa

Ejemplo de respuesta de error:

{
  "isError": true,
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "Olostep API Error: 401 Unauthorized. Details: {\"error\":\"Invalid API key\"}"
    }
  ]
}

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions 'AI-powered answers' and 'sources and citations', which hints at synthesis and attribution, but lacks details on behavioral traits like rate limits, authentication needs, response format beyond JSON, or whether it performs web searches in real-time. For a tool with no annotations, this leaves significant gaps in understanding its operation.

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?

The description is concise and front-loaded, stating the core functionality in one sentence. Every phrase ('Search the web', 'return AI-powered answers', 'JSON structure you want, with sources and citations') contributes meaning without redundancy. It could be slightly more structured by separating usage hints, but it's efficient overall.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given no annotations, no output schema, and a tool that performs web searches and AI synthesis, the description is incomplete. It doesn't cover critical aspects like response format details, error handling, limitations (e.g., search depth), or how 'sources and citations' are structured in the output. For a complex tool with 2 parameters, this leaves too much undefined for effective agent use.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters ('task' and 'json') well. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema, mentioning 'JSON structure you want' which aligns with the 'json' parameter but doesn't provide additional semantics like examples or constraints. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema does the heavy lifting.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Search the web and return AI-powered answers' with specific outputs ('JSON structure you want, with sources and citations'). It distinguishes from siblings like 'google_search' or 'scrape_website' by emphasizing AI-powered answer generation rather than raw search results or content extraction. However, it doesn't explicitly contrast with 'search_web' which might be similar.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'google_search', 'search_web', or 'get_webpage_content'. The description implies usage for AI-powered answers with structured JSON output, but doesn't specify scenarios where this is preferred over simpler search tools or when not to use it (e.g., for raw data vs. synthesized answers).

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

batch_scrape_urlsB

Scrape up to 10k URLs at the same time. Perfect for large-scale data extraction.

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urls_to_scrapeYesJSON array of objects with "url" and optional "custom_id".
output_formatNoChoose format for all URLs. Default: "markdown".markdown
countryNoOptional country code for location-specific scraping.
wait_before_scrapingNoWait time in milliseconds before scraping each URL.
parserNoOptional parser ID for specialized extraction.

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden but offers minimal behavioral disclosure. It mentions scale ('up to 10k URLs') but doesn't cover critical aspects like rate limits, authentication needs, error handling, or what 'scrape' entails (e.g., does it extract text, metadata, full HTML?). The phrase 'at the same time' hints at concurrency but lacks specifics. For a batch operation tool with zero annotation coverage, this is inadequate.

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 extremely concise (two sentences) and front-loaded with the core functionality. Every word earns its place: first sentence defines the tool, second provides usage context. No wasted words or redundancy.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the complexity (batch scraping with 5 parameters, no annotations, no output schema), the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what 'scrape' returns (e.g., content, status codes), how errors are handled for partial failures, or performance considerations. For a tool that could involve significant processing and network usage, more context is needed to use it effectively.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema fully documents all 5 parameters. The description adds no parameter-specific information beyond implying the 'urls_to_scrape' parameter supports batch operations. No additional semantics, constraints, or usage examples are provided. Baseline 3 is appropriate when schema does all the work.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Scrape up to 10k URLs at the same time' specifies the verb (scrape) and resource (URLs) with a quantitative limit. It distinguishes from siblings like 'scrape_website' (singular) and 'get_webpage_content' (single page) by emphasizing batch capability. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from 'create_crawl' which might also handle multiple URLs.

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 provides implied usage context: 'Perfect for large-scale data extraction' suggests when to use this tool (for bulk operations). However, it lacks explicit guidance on when NOT to use it or alternatives (e.g., use 'scrape_website' for single URLs, 'get_webpage_content' for simpler extraction). No prerequisites or exclusions are mentioned.

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

create_crawlB

Autonomously discover and scrape entire websites by following links from a start URL.

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
start_urlYesStarting URL for the crawl.
max_pagesNoMaximum number of pages to crawl.
follow_linksNoWhether to follow links found on pages.
output_formatNoFormat for scraped content. Default: "markdown".markdown
countryNoOptional country code for location-specific crawling.
parserNoOptional parser ID for specialized content extraction.

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. While it mentions autonomous discovery and link-following, it lacks critical behavioral details like rate limits, authentication requirements, potential for being blocked by websites, or what happens when max_pages is reached. The description doesn't explain what 'scrape' entails beyond content extraction.

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 a single, efficient sentence that communicates the core functionality without unnecessary words. It's front-loaded with the main action and resource, making it immediately understandable.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a complex crawling tool with 6 parameters and no annotations or output schema, the description is insufficient. It doesn't address important contextual aspects like what the tool returns (scraped content format, error handling), performance characteristics, or limitations of autonomous website discovery.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters thoroughly. The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond what's in the schema. The baseline score of 3 reflects adequate parameter documentation through the schema alone.

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's purpose with specific verbs ('discover and scrape entire websites') and resource ('websites'), distinguishing it from siblings like 'scrape_website' or 'get_webpage_content' by emphasizing autonomous link-following behavior.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'scrape_website' or 'batch_scrape_urls'. It mentions following links but doesn't specify scenarios where this comprehensive crawling approach is preferred over targeted scraping.

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

create_mapC

Get all URLs on a website. Extract URLs for discovery and site analysis.

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
website_urlYesWebsite URL to extract links from.
search_queryNoOptional search query to filter URLs (e.g., "blog").

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It states the tool extracts URLs but doesn't describe how it works (e.g., crawling depth, handling of dynamic content, rate limits, authentication needs, or error conditions). The phrase 'Get all URLs' might imply comprehensive extraction, but without behavioral details, the agent lacks transparency about what to expect from the operation.

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 extremely concise and front-loaded: the first sentence 'Get all URLs on a website' directly states the core purpose. The second sentence adds context about use cases without redundancy. Every word earns its place, making it efficient and easy to parse for an AI agent.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (5 parameters, no annotations, no output schema), the description is insufficient. It doesn't explain what the tool returns (e.g., list structure, error formats), behavioral constraints, or how it differs from similar siblings. For a URL extraction tool with multiple filtering options, more context is needed to guide effective use, especially without annotations or 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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage, providing clear documentation for all 5 parameters. The description adds minimal value beyond this, only implying URL extraction without detailing parameter interactions or usage examples. Since the schema does the heavy lifting, the baseline score of 3 is appropriate, though the description could have enhanced understanding with practical context.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Get all URLs on a website' specifies the verb (get/extract) and resource (URLs from a website). It distinguishes from some siblings like 'get_webpage_content' (which gets content rather than URLs) and 'google_search' (which searches the web rather than extracting from a specific site). However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from 'get_website_urls' (which might have similar functionality), keeping it from a perfect score.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It mentions 'discovery and site analysis' as general use cases, but doesn't specify when to choose this over siblings like 'get_website_urls', 'scrape_website', or 'create_crawl'. There's no mention of prerequisites, limitations, or comparative advantages, leaving the agent with minimal usage context.

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

get_webpage_contentC

Retrieve content of a webpage in markdown

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
url_to_scrapeYesThe URL of the webpage to scrape.
wait_before_scrapingNoTime to wait in milliseconds before starting the scrape.
countryNoResidential country to load the request from (e.g., US, CA, GB). Optional.

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'retrieve' and 'scrape', implying a read-only operation, but doesn't address potential issues like rate limits, authentication needs, error handling, or what happens with dynamic content. This is inadequate for a scraping tool with zero annotation coverage.

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 a single, efficient sentence with zero waste. It's front-loaded with the core purpose and includes the output format, making it easy to parse quickly.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a scraping tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain return values (e.g., structure of markdown content), error conditions, or behavioral traits like handling of JavaScript-rendered pages. This leaves significant gaps for an AI agent to use the tool effectively.

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 input schema has 100% description coverage, so the schema fully documents all three parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what's in the schema, such as explaining why 'wait_before_scraping' might be needed or how 'country' affects the scrape. Baseline 3 is appropriate 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.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'retrieve' and resource 'content of a webpage', specifying the output format 'in markdown'. However, it doesn't differentiate from sibling tools like 'scrape_website' or 'batch_scrape_urls', which likely have overlapping functionality.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'scrape_website' or 'batch_scrape_urls'. The description lacks context about use cases, prerequisites, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage from the tool name alone.

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

get_website_urlsC

Search and retrieve relevant URLs from a website

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlYesThe URL of the website to map.
search_queryYesThe search query to sort URLs by.

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'search and retrieve' but doesn't explain how the search works (e.g., depth, scope, or limitations), what 'relevant' means, potential rate limits, or authentication needs. This leaves significant gaps for a tool that interacts with external websites.

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 a single, efficient sentence that directly states the tool's function without unnecessary words. It's front-loaded and appropriately sized for its purpose, earning full marks for conciseness.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the complexity of web interaction tools and the lack of annotations and output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't cover behavioral aspects like error handling, return format, or limitations, which are crucial for an agent to use this tool effectively in real-world scenarios.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters ('url' and 'search_query') adequately. The description implies these parameters are used for searching and retrieving, but doesn't add meaningful semantic context beyond what the schema provides, such as examples or constraints on the search query.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose with specific verbs ('search and retrieve') and resource ('relevant URLs from a website'). However, it doesn't explicitly distinguish this tool from sibling tools like 'scrape_website' or 'search_web', which might have overlapping functionality, preventing a perfect score.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. With multiple sibling tools like 'scrape_website', 'google_search', and 'search_web', there's no indication of context, prerequisites, or exclusions, leaving the agent to guess based on tool names alone.

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

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'JavaScript rendering' (useful context) and 'Supports multiple formats' (output behavior), but lacks critical details: whether scraping respects robots.txt, rate limits, authentication needs, error handling, or what 'extract content' specifically means. For a scraping tool with zero annotation coverage, this leaves significant behavioral gaps.

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?

The description is concise (two short sentences) and front-loaded with the core purpose. Every sentence adds value: first states the main action, second adds key capabilities. No wasted words, though it could be slightly more structured for clarity.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given 5 parameters, no annotations, and no output schema, the description is moderately complete. It covers the basic purpose and key features (formats, JavaScript), but lacks details on scraping behavior, error cases, or output structure. For a tool with this complexity and no structured safety/behavior annotations, it should provide more context about limitations or typical use cases.

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 description coverage is 100%, so parameters are well-documented in the schema. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema: it implies format support ('Supports multiple formats') and JavaScript capability, but doesn't explain parameter interactions or provide additional semantic context. Baseline 3 is appropriate 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.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Extract content from a single URL' specifies the verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling 'batch_scrape_urls' by emphasizing 'single URL' and from 'get_webpage_content' by mentioning format support and JavaScript rendering. However, it doesn't explicitly contrast with all siblings like 'google_search' or 'search_web'.

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 implies usage context through 'single URL' (vs. batch) and 'JavaScript rendering' (for dynamic content), but doesn't provide explicit when-to-use guidance or alternatives. It mentions 'Supports multiple formats' which suggests format flexibility, but no clear exclusions or comparisons to siblings like 'get_webpage_content' are stated.

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

search_webC

Search the web for a given query and return structured results (non-AI, parser-based).

ParametersJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryYesSearch query
countryNoOptional country code for localized results (e.g., US, GB).US

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions 'parser-based' and 'non-AI' which adds some behavioral context, but fails to disclose critical traits like rate limits, authentication needs, result format, pagination, or error handling for a web search tool.

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 a single, efficient sentence with zero wasted words, clearly front-loading the core functionality. Every part earns its place by specifying the action, resource, and method.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the complexity of web search and lack of annotations or output schema, the description is incomplete. It omits details on result structure, limitations, error cases, and how it differs from siblings, leaving significant gaps for agent understanding.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters ('query' and 'country'). The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, such as query formatting tips or country code examples, meeting the baseline for high schema coverage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb ('Search') and resource ('the web'), specifying it returns structured results via parser-based (non-AI) methods. It distinguishes from AI-based search tools but doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like 'google_search' or 'answers'.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'google_search' or 'answers', nor does it mention prerequisites or exclusions. The description implies a general web search context but lacks explicit usage instructions.

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

TDQS

B3.2/5.0

Scored across 9 tools

Disambiguation3/5

There is significant overlap between tools like 'answers', 'google_search', and 'search_web' for web search functionality, and between 'scrape_website', 'get_webpage_content', and 'batch_scrape_urls' for content extraction. However, the descriptions help clarify some distinctions, such as AI-powered vs. parser-based search or single vs. batch scraping.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., 'create_crawl', 'get_webpage_content', 'scrape_website'), with only minor deviations like 'answers' (a noun alone) and 'google_search' (noun_verb). The naming is generally readable and predictable across the set.

Tool Count4/5

With 9 tools, the count is reasonable for a web data extraction and search server. It covers multiple aspects of the domain without being overwhelming, though some overlap suggests potential consolidation could refine the scope slightly.

Completeness4/5

The toolset provides comprehensive coverage for web search, content scraping, and URL discovery, including batch operations and autonomous crawling. Minor gaps might include more advanced filtering or data processing tools, but core workflows are well-supported without dead ends.
