Get model detail

get_model

Retrieve detailed AI model information by ID or name, including per-benchmark results and dimension coverage.

Instructions

Full detail for one model by id/name, including per-benchmark results and dimension coverage.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It states the output includes per-benchmark results and dimension coverage, but does not address authorization, side effects, or error conditions. Basic but adequate for a read operation.

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 a single sentence that is front-loaded and concise, containing no redundant information while covering the core functionality.

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?

With one parameter and no output schema, the description adequately explains the return values and scope. It is sufficient for a simple retrieval tool, though it could mention error handling or existence guarantees.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The tool description does not add additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema already provides (e.g., id example).

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?

Description explicitly states the tool retrieves full details for one model by id or name, including per-benchmark results and dimension coverage, clearly distinguishing it from siblings like list_models or compare_models.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description implies usage when needing detailed information for a single model, but lacks explicit guidance on when not to use or alternatives, though the tool name and sibling differentiation provide context.

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