TDQS

C2.6/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description reinforces the safety profile with 'Read only; no spend', which is useful for a pricing tool, but it does not explain auth needs, whether the call depends on campaign type, or how the 'confirm' parameter relates to the preview flow.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is short and front-loaded, but the 'Fields: soclo://tools/...' sentence is an opaque URI that does not give the agent actionable information and does not earn its place. The remaining text is efficient but under-specified rather than genuinely concise.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

This is a complex tool with 10 parameters, nested targeting objects, and no output schema. The description does not explain what the returned bid/budget bounds look like, how the targeting spec affects the result, or what prerequisites are needed, so it is not complete enough for reliable invocation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is only 60% across 10 parameters, including a large nested targeting 'spec'. The description adds no parameter meaning beyond the opaque 'Fields: soclo://tools/soclo_ads_get_linked_in_bid_pricing' pointer, and does not explain bidType, campaignType, confirm, or the targeting fields.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The title and first sentence identify the resource ('Suggested bid and budget bounds') but do not add a distinct verb or scope beyond the tool name. It does not distinguish this from siblings such as soclo_ads_get_campaign_bidding or soclo_ads_get_linked_in_supply_forecast, leaving the agent to infer the exact purpose.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description gives no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance and does not mention alternatives for supply forecasting or campaign bidding. 'Read only; no spend' is a safety note, not a routing rule, so the agent receives no help choosing this tool over its siblings.

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