fetch_page

Read-onlyIdempotent

Extract full text content from any web page URL with customizable output formats and options for metadata, tables, comments, and images.

Instructions

Extracts the full text content from a web page URL. Use this to read the details of a specific result found via web_search.

Args: url: The URL to fetch and extract content from output_format: Format for extracted content ('csv', 'html', 'json', 'markdown', 'python', 'txt', 'xml', 'xmltei') include_metadata: Whether to include document metadata (title, author, date, etc.) include_tables: Whether to include table content in extraction include_comments: Whether to include comment content in extraction include_images: Whether to include image descriptions in extraction deduplicate: Whether to remove duplicated content max_length: Maximum length of content to return (default 15000) timeout: Request timeout in seconds (default 30) backend: HTTP backend to use ('httpx' for lightweight, 'curl' to bypass bot detection, 'auto' to try httpx first then fallback to curl)

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=true, and openWorldHint=true. The description adds behavioral context by detailing backend options (curl for bot detection) and extraction options, but does not mention potential rate limits or failure scenarios.

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 front-loaded with a concise summary and a usage sentence, followed by a well-structured bullet list of parameters. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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?

The description covers the tool's purpose and all parameters thoroughly. Given an output schema exists (not shown), the description does not need to detail return values. Minor gaps include lack of error handling or typical response behavior.

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

Parameters4/5

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

With 0% schema description coverage, the description compensates by listing all parameters with explanations in the Args section, clarifying enums and defaults. However, some parameters like include_metadata lack details on what metadata is included.

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 'Extracts the full text content from a web page URL', which is a specific verb and resource. It also distinguishes itself from siblings by recommending use after web_search.

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 explicitly advises using it to read details of a specific result from web_search, providing clear context. However, it does not include exclusions or alternatives beyond the implicit sibling distinction.

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