Read-only

Perform keyword full-text search over page titles and bodies. Use to locate pages by name, exact term, identifier, or error string. Results ranked with snippet highlights. Optionally restrict to a specific space.

Instructions

Keyword (full-text) lookup over title + body, ranked + snippet-highlighted. Use to find a page you can name or that contains an exact term/identifier/error string. Works WITHOUT an embedder (always available). Optional space_id narrows to one space. To answer a question or gather material on a topic by meaning, use research instead.

Behavior4/5

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

Adds value beyond annotations by noting it works without an embedder (always available) and that space_id narrows results. No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Two sentences: first defines core functionality, second gives usage guidance and alternative. Very concise and front-loaded.

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 simple schema, output schema exists, and annotations cover safety, the description fully addresses purpose, usage, and behavioral context.

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 description adds little beyond confirming defaults and indicating space_id is optional. Baseline 3 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?

Description clearly states keyword full-text search over title+body with ranking and snippet highlighting, distinguishing it from siblings by noting it works without an embedder and contrasting with 'research' for semantic queries.

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?

Explicitly says when to use ('find a page you can name or that contains an exact term') and when not to ('use research instead for meaning'), providing clear guidance.

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