TDQS

B3.1/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, non-destructive and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds only the ARR-band framing, which is more purpose than behavior; it says nothing about how recommendations are derived or what assumption set drives the sequence.

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 core sentence is front-loaded and economical, but the trailing 'See the full version at https://...' is promotional filler that does not help an agent invoke the tool correctly and dilutes an otherwise tight sentence.

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

Completeness3/5

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 annotations cover the safety profile for a read-only calculator. With 100% schema coverage the remaining gaps are modest, but the description still omits any usage context or differentiation from a crowded set of planning siblings.

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 both arr and currency are fully documented in the schema with format and pattern constraints. The description adds no syntax or interpretation detail beyond what the schema already provides, so 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?

States a specific verb (Recommend) and resource (growth/marketing hiring sequence) scoped by ARR band, with concrete bounds (pre-$1M to $10M+). An agent can identify the tool's output without opening the schema, though it does not differentiate against near-neighbors like in_house_vs_fractional_cmo or sdr_capacity_and_inbound_quota_planner.

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 says what the tool produces but gives no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and names no alternative. There is no signal for choosing this over the other org/headcount planning tools in the sibling list.

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