kaggle_search_datasets

Read-only

Search Kaggle datasets using keywords, filters, and pagination. Returns a compact ranked table of top results with download stats and usability.

Instructions

Search datasets; return top ~10 as a compact ranked table (ref, title, downloads, updated, usability) — not raw JSON. Paginated.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds useful behavioral traits: returns a compact table instead of raw JSON, paginated, and limits to top ~10 results. No contradiction with annotations.

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, front-loads the core action and output format, and contains no unnecessary words. It is highly efficient.

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, 0% schema coverage, and an output schema, the description provides essential output details (columns) but lacks parameter documentation and guidance on when to use this tool relative to siblings. It is adequate but has clear gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must explain parameters. It only implicitly references search and pagination (top ~10) but does not detail the purpose of page, sort_by, file_type, or page_size. The description falls short of compensating for the lack of schema descriptions.

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 searches datasets and returns a compact ranked table with specific columns, which is a specific verb+resource. However, it does not explicitly distinguish from sibling search tools like kaggle_search_discussions, so differentiation is implicit.

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, such as when to prefer this over kaggle_get_dataset_metadata or other dataset tools. No exclusions or context are given.

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