- "name"
-]Output schema / properties / savedView / typeRemoved value: -"object"Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds no behavioral context beyond 'retrieves a single saved view by ID' – no mention of error behavior, permissions, or what happens if the ID is not found. With annotations covering the read-only nature, a 3 is appropriate.
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?
The description is a single sentence that front-loads the verb and resource. It is appropriately sized for a simple get-by-ID tool, though it could have added a brief note about the nested id structure without becoming verbose.
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-only get-by-ID tool with a full output schema and 100% parameter coverage, the description is minimally adequate. It does not explain what a saved view is or how to obtain the ID, but those are likely discoverable from sibling list tools. The output schema covers return values, so no gap there.
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 description coverage is 100%: the only parameter 'id' is described as a 'UUID value wrapper' with a nested 'value' string. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so the 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 states a specific verb ('retrieves') and resource ('a single saved view by ID'), which clearly distinguishes it from list-style siblings like saved_view_get_list_saved_views and saved_view_get_default_saved_view. It lacks a bit of detail about what a saved view is, but the core purpose is unambiguous.
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: use this when you need one saved view by ID. It does not explicitly contrast with saved_view_get_list_saved_views or saved_view_get_default_saved_view, though the sibling names make the distinction fairly obvious. No explicit when-not-to-use guidance is given.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
