remarkable_browse

Read-onlyIdempotent

Browse folders, search by name, or filter by tags on your reMarkable device.

Instructions

Browse your reMarkable library or search for documents. Three modes:

  1. Browse mode (default): List contents of a folder

    • Use path="/" for root folder

    • Use path="/FolderName" to navigate into folders

  2. Search mode: Find documents by name

    • Set query="search term" to search across all documents

  3. Filter by tags: Find documents with specific tags

    • Set tags=["tag1", "tag2"] to filter by tags

    • Works in both browse and search modes

Results include document names, types, modification dates, and tags.

Note: If REMARKABLE_ROOT_PATH is configured, only documents within that folder are accessible. Paths are relative to the root path.

  • path: Folder path to browse (default: "/" for root)

  • query: Search term to find documents by name (optional, triggers search mode)

  • tags: List of tags to filter documents (optional, case-insensitive)

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, non-destructive, idempotent behavior. The description adds valuable context about three operation modes, path relativity, and the effect of REMARKABLE_ROOT_PATH. 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.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is well-organized with sections (usecase, instructions, parameters, examples). While slightly verbose, each section serves a purpose and adds clarity. Slightly more concise presentation could improve scannability, but overall effective.

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?

Given the tool has an output schema (not shown but present), the description covers all necessary aspects: modes, parameters, configuration note, and examples. It is complete for an agent to correctly select and invoke this tool.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 0%, but the description fully explains each parameter: path (default '/', folder navigation), query (optional, triggers search), tags (optional list, case-insensitive). Examples demonstrate parameter combinations.

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 browses or searches the reMarkable library. It specifies three modes (browse, search, filter by tags) with examples. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like remarkable_search and remarkable_recent.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description explicitly covers when to use each mode, including path navigation, search term triggering search mode, and optional tag filtering. It also notes the REMARKABLE_ROOT_PATH constraint. Examples cover all major use cases.

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