spider_unblocker

Access content from bot-protected websites using advanced anti-bot bypass with fingerprinting and proxy rotation.

Instructions

Access content from bot-protected websites. Uses advanced anti-bot bypass with fingerprinting and proxy rotation. Costs 10-40 extra credits per successful unblock on top of base scrape cost.

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavior. It mentions fingerprinting, proxy rotation, and extra costs, but lacks details on failure modes, return format, or additional latency. This is adequate but not thorough.

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, front-loading the purpose and efficiently conveying technique and cost. No redundant information.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the tool has 64 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description is too brief. It fails to explain return values, parameter interplay, or failure handling, leaving significant gaps for agent use.

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 coverage is 100% and the description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 accesses content from bot-protected websites, using anti-bot bypass, fingerprinting, and proxy rotation. This distinct purpose differentiates it from siblings like spider_scrape and spider_crawl.

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 use for bot-protected websites and mentions extra credit costs, providing some usage context. However, it does not explicitly state when to avoid this tool or recommend alternatives for non-protected sites.

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