Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds value beyond those by disclosing that results are ranked and that a total count is returned for pagination. It does not mention all behavioral nuances, but with rich annotations and schema, the bar is lower and the added context is meaningful.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
