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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds real behavioral value beyond that: it is a permission-discovery call whose result determines what subsequent calls are permitted. It doesn't describe the return shape or whether it's cacheable.

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?

Two sentences, zero waste, with the identity question leading and the call-ordering directive second. The rhetorical-question opening is slightly less direct than a declarative statement but still front-loads the purpose effectively.

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 zero-parameter, annotation-rich read tool with no output schema, the description supplies the essentials: what it returns (identity, per-board role) and when to invoke it. It is complete enough to call correctly; only the concrete return shape is left unspecified, which is acceptable given no output schema exists.

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?

There are zero parameters, so per the rubric the baseline is 4. The description correctly implies no input is needed and doesn't invent parameters that the empty schema doesn't define.

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?

The description states a clear, specific purpose: returning the caller's identity and their role on each board. It's unambiguous and distinguishable from sibling tools (no other sibling answers 'who am I'), though it doesn't explicitly differentiate from e.g. fenbs_groups or fenbs_list_boards.

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?

It gives explicit sequencing guidance ('Call this first') and the reason ('it tells you what you are allowed to do before you try'), which is stronger than generic context. It doesn't name alternatives or exclusions, but none are meaningfully needed for a zero-argument self-lookup.

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