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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. 'Retry' implies a re-attempt, but side effects (state of DLQ entry after retry, idempotency, permission requirements, failure behavior) are not disclosed. This is a significant gap for a mutation tool.

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 clear sentence with no wasted words, instantly communicates the core action.

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?

With no annotations and no output schema, the description omits critical context: return value, side effects, prerequisites, and error conditions. The one-sentence description is too sparse for an agent to confidently invoke this tool.

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?

The schema provides 100% coverage with a clear description for dlqId ('DLQ entry ID to retry'). The tool description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond this, so baseline 3 applies.

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 uses a specific verb ('Retry'), names the resource ('failed webhook from the Dead Letter Queue'), and clearly distinguishes from sibling webhook tools like list or configure. It directly states the action.

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?

The description implies usage when a webhook has failed and is in the DLQ, but provides no explicit when-to-use guidance, no exclusions, and no mention of the likely prerequisite of listing DLQ entries (nolag_list_webhook_dlq) to obtain the dlqId. It does not name alternatives.

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