TDQS

B3.2/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered structurally. The description adds only the set of derived metrics, which is modest value for a pure deterministic calculator; there is little behavioral surface left to disclose.

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 purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence with no wasted preamble. The trailing link to an external 'full version' is promotional rather than operational and adds no invocation value, but it is brief enough not to undermine the structure.

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, so return values need not be explained, and the input surface is simple and fully documented. Combined with annotations that cover the safety profile, the definition is essentially complete for a single-step calculator, with the only gap being routing guidance against sibling metrics tools.

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 (spend, leads, convPct, currency) are already documented, including the ISO 4217 pattern and units. The description restates the inputs at a high level without adding format, unit, or edge-case 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.

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb (Calculate) and enumerates the exact outputs (cost per lead, expected customers, cost per acquisition) plus the inputs. However, it does not differentiate this tool from adjacent siblings such as cpa_to_cac_scalability_matrix, cac_payback_period_matrix, or ltv_cac_calculator, leaving the agent to infer boundaries from names alone.

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 when-to-use guidance, no stated preconditions, and no mention of alternatives among the many marketing-metric calculators in the sibling list. The description says what it computes but never says when to reach for it over a neighboring tool.

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