seameet_get_media_url

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses the URL is 'fresh' and has a 15-minute expiry, and that it's for streaming/downloading a recording's media file. However, it does not mention behavior on invalid assetId, rate limits, authentication needs, or whether the operation is read-only (likely but not stated).

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

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

The description is a single concise sentence (12 words) with the key information front-loaded. It is efficient but could include a brief parameter hint without becoming verbose.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description provides adequate context: purpose, type of URL, and expiry. It does not specify the output format, but the phrase 'Get a fresh presigned URL' implies the output is the URL string.

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

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

The schema has one required string parameter 'assetId' with no description (0% coverage). The description does not explain what assetId represents or how to obtain it. It could be inferred from context ('a recording's media file'), but explicit mapping to a recording ID is missing.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action ('Get'), the resource ('fresh presigned URL'), and the purpose ('to stream/download a recording's media file') with a specific expiry (15 min). It distinguishes from siblings like seameet_get_recording and seameet_list_recent_recordings by focusing on obtaining a URL for the media file.

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

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

The description implies usage for streaming or downloading but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings. It does not state prerequisites or alternatives, which would be helpful given the existence of similar tools like seameet_get_recording.

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