TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint false, and openWorldHint false, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds the dual calculation behavior (payout plus margin check), but does not disclose any further operational traits such as input constraints, assumptions, or output format. With annotations carrying the behavioral burden, this is adequate but not rich.

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 description is two short sentences and front-loads the core functionality. The second sentence is a promotional link to a full version, which does not help an agent invoke this MCP tool, so it is not fully waste-free.

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

Completeness5/5

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

With an output schema present, 100% parameter description coverage, and annotations covering safety and side effects, the description only needs to communicate the tool's purpose and context. It does so clearly, making the definition complete enough for reliable agent use.

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 every parameter is already documented in the input schema. The description does not add any parameter-level detail, which is acceptable given the high schema coverage. Baseline 3 applies.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource: model a rep's commission payout under a base-plus-accelerator plan. It also adds a second, distinctive function: checking the plan against gross margin to catch profitability overruns. This differentiates it from generic calculator siblings without needing to name one.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description gives clear contextual use cases: modeling a base-plus-accelerator commission plan and testing whether that plan outruns gross margin. It does not explicitly state when not to use it or name an alternative sibling tool, but the scenario is specific enough to guide invocation.

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