Hybrid

Compare Geographic Identities

compare_geographies

Read-onlyIdempotent

Compare two geographic identities to verify containment, common ancestry, and temporal validity for specified vintages.

Instructions

Compare two geographic identities for the public guarantees implemented today: containment/common ancestry and temporal validity for the requested vintages. The response may include additional maintained evidence, but callers must not rely on deeper topology or relationship semantics as a stable contract until that review is complete. Use convert_reference first for names or outside identifiers. No payment required.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations, the description warns that the response may include additional maintained evidence and that deeper topology or relationship semantics are not a stable contract. This is valuable non-obvious behavioral context that an agent needs before trusting the output.

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?

Three sentences with no wasted words: the core purpose is front-loaded, the stability caveat is stated, and the prerequisite routing is given. Every sentence earns its place.

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?

Given the rich input schema, output schema, and annotations, the description covers the essential behavioral contract, the supported comparison semantics, and the prerequisite conversion step. Nothing critical is missing for an agent to invoke the tool 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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description adds general context like 'requested vintages' and 'names or outside identifiers', but it does not materially deepen parameter-level meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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 names a specific verb ('Compare') and resource ('two geographic identities') and enumerates the exact guarantees covered: containment/common ancestry and temporal validity. It is clearly distinct from the get_* sibling tools and even routes name/identifier resolution to convert_reference.

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?

It explicitly instructs callers to use convert_reference first for names or outside identifiers, which is a concrete alternative and sequencing rule. It also sets expectations about what callers may rely on, effectively saying when this tool is appropriate and when deeper semantics should not be assumed.

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