TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the non-read-only nature is covered. The description adds that the summary retains heatmap-compatible block metadata for certain analyses, which is a useful output detail, but it doesn't disclose side effects beyond what 'refreshes' implies. Given the annotations, the description adds modest value without contradicting them.

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 a single, efficient sentence that front-loads the core action ('Returns or refreshes') and follows with the output format and a specific metadata detail. Every clause contributes meaning with no waste.

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?

Given the presence of an output schema and the annotations, the description covers the main purpose and output format. It doesn't explain the nuances of refresh vs force or study selection, but those are handled by the schema parameter descriptions. For a tool with four optional parameters, this is largely complete, with minor gaps around usage scenarios.

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 description coverage is 75% (three of four parameters have descriptions). The tool description does not elaborate on parameter meanings beyond the schema; it mentions output format but not parameter semantics. The length parameter lacks a description in the schema, and the description doesn't compensate. Since coverage is high, a baseline of 3 is 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?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: it returns or refreshes the semantic summary for a Study, and specifies the output as Markdown plus flexible evidence blocks. It also notes a distinguishing detail about heatmap-compatible block metadata for website/image/video analyses, which helps differentiate it from sibling tools like get_study_status or list_studies.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies the tool is for retrieving or refreshing summaries, but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives or when to set the refresh or force flags. It doesn't name any sibling tools or give conditions for choosing this tool over others. The usage context is implicit rather than explicit.

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