Fetch the phone's address book again

sync_contacts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Refill wazap's contact list by fetching the linked phone's address book. Use when contacts show as numbers.

Instructions

Ask WhatsApp to send the linked phone's address book from scratch, and wait up to 15 seconds for it. Nothing on WhatsApp changes: this only refills wazap's own contact list.

Use it when get_status reports contacts_named: 0, or when senders in a group read as phone numbers for people you know are saved on the phone. Returns named_before and named_after so you can tell whether it helped; if both are 0 the phone has no saved contacts for these people.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/idempotent/non-destructive, and the description adds genuinely new behavioral facts: a bounded up-to-15-second wait, an explicit assurance that nothing on WhatsApp changes, and the names and interpretation of the return fields (named_before/named_after, with both zero meaning the phone has no saved contacts).

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?

Four tight sentences, front-loaded with the action and its cost (up to 15 seconds), followed by scope, trigger conditions, and return-value interpretation. No filler.

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?

With no output schema, the description compensates by explaining what is returned and how to read it, and it covers trigger conditions, latency, and side-effect scope. An agent has everything needed to call and interpret this correctly.

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?

Only one optional parameter exists and schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents account_id fully. The description adds nothing about parameters, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Ask WhatsApp to send the linked phone's address book from scratch') and immediately scopes it ('this only refills wazap's own contact list'), which cleanly separates it from siblings like search_contacts and get_contact that read the existing list.

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?

Gives two explicit triggering conditions ('when get_status reports contacts_named: 0', or 'when senders in a group read as phone numbers for people you know are saved on the phone') and names the sibling tool to check first, leaving no inference needed about when to reach for this.

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