TDQS

B3.2/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=true, idempotent=true, destructive=false and openWorld=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds no behavioral context beyond that — no note on determinism, currency handling, or interpretation of the result. For a pure calculation tool with full annotation coverage, 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

The core purpose is front-loaded in a single efficient sentence. The second sentence is a promotional link to an external site that does not help an agent invoke the tool, which slightly detracts from strict conciseness but the overall length is small.

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?

An output schema exists and annotations cover the safety profile, so the description needn't explain return values. For a self-contained calculation the essential input semantics are covered by the schema, leaving the definition complete enough to call correctly.

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 100%, so all four parameters (currentCpa, monthlyInflationPct, maxCpa, currency) are already documented in the schema. The description adds no syntax, unit, or default information beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline 3 applies.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb and outcome: 'Project how many months until a channel's compounding CPA inflation pushes it past your max viable CPA.' That is a precise, distinguishable purpose. It doesn't name or differentiate against any sibling tool, keeping it short of a 5.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this versus alternatives (e.g. cpa_to_cac_scalability_matrix, ltv_to_cac_ratio_health_grader), no prerequisites, and no exclusions. Usage is only weakly implied by the computation described.

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