telegram-inline-query-send

Send an inline bot result to a chat using queryId and resultId from a prior inline query. The queryId is valid for about 60 seconds, so call this soon after the inline query.

Instructions

Send an inline bot result to a chat by queryId + resultId (as returned by telegram-inline-query). The queryId is valid for ~60s after the original query, so call this soon after telegram-inline-query. Returns the sent messageId (0 if not extractable from the update).

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate mutation (readOnlyHint=false). The description adds the 60-second timeout and potential zero return for messageId. No contradictions.

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 sentences, front-loaded with key action and prerequisite, no unnecessary words.

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 no output schema, it explains the return value. It could detail more optional parameters, but the essential usage is covered.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents parameters. The description adds value by linking queryId/resultId to the prior call and clarifying the time constraint and return value nuances.

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 action: sending an inline bot result to a chat using queryId and resultId. It distinguishes from sibling tools by being the only one for inline query results.

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?

It explicitly mentions the prerequisite call (telegram-inline-query) and the 60-second validity window, guiding when to use. It does not explicitly exclude other send tools, but the context is clear.

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