A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. 'List all available' does convey a complete, unfiltered, read-only enumeration, which is useful. However, it says nothing about authentication requirements, whether availability is region-dependent, or the shape of the response for a tool whose output schema is absent.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

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

A single, front-loaded sentence naming the action, the resource, and representative examples. Every element earns its place with no filler.

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?

For a zero-parameter listing tool with no output schema, the description is minimally adequate but leaves the agent guessing what a returned service looks like (name only? ID needed for order_number? availability flags?) and how it connects to the ordering siblings. Given the sibling-rich toolset, a sentence tying the result to the ordering flow would materially improve it.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is no parameter semantics to convey and the baseline is 4. The description correctly does not invent filtering options that the empty schema does not support.

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 ('List') and resource ('SMS verification services') and grounds it with concrete examples (WhatsApp, Telegram, Google, TikTok), which helps distinguish it from siblings like list_countries or list_number_countries. It is clear on its own, though it never explicitly contrasts itself with those similarly-named sibling list tools.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied: an agent can infer this is the discovery/entry-point call for figuring out which services are orderable, but the description never says when to call it versus alternatives such as get_pricing or get_number_pricing, nor does it route the agent forward after the call.

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