metadata_diff

Compare metadata between live and pending app versions to identify changes in descriptions, keywords, and release notes across locales.

Instructions

Compare metadata between your live and pending app versions. Shows what changed in descriptions, keywords, and release notes across locales.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden. It implies a read-only comparison, but does not explicitly state that no changes are made. This is adequate but not fully transparent about side effects or limitations.

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 wasted words. It front-loads the main action and lists specific elements, making it easy to parse.

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 covers the main purpose and scope, but does not mention output format or how results are presented. Given the low complexity, it is nearly complete.

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 schema has 100% coverage for the single parameter app_id, with a clear description in the schema. The tool description adds no additional semantics about how to obtain or use the parameter, meeting the baseline of 3.

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 function: comparing metadata between live and pending app versions. It specifies what is compared (descriptions, keywords, release notes) and across locales, making it distinct from sibling tools like app_details or keyword_insights.

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 when needing to see differences before release, but does not explicitly state when to use or not use this tool, nor does it mention alternative tools. It lacks context about prerequisites like having a pending version.

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