Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The annotations already establish the safety profile (readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false), lowering the disclosure burden. The description adds useful scope by naming the returned content, but says nothing about the superadmin impersonation semantics implied by the customerId parameter or any auth requirements.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the verb-resource-content order is efficient. It is appropriately sized, though there is no structural separation of scope from caveats.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple read tool with a fully documented parameter and annotations covering safety, the description is nearly complete: the agent knows what it fetches and what it returns. The absence of any note about the superadmin-only impersonation path is the only real gap.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a single optional parameter, so the schema already carries the full parameter burden. The description adds no additional semantics beyond it, which is the baseline 3 for high-coverage schemas.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
States a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('account') and enumerates the payload ('organization details and subscription plan'), so the agent knows what comes back. It does not, however, distinguish itself from nearby read siblings like get_settings or get_usage, which is why it stops short of 5.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
There is no when-to-use, no when-not-to-use, and no named alternative. An agent deciding between get_account, get_settings, and get_usage gets no routing signal at all from the description.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
