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

Despite minimal annotations, the description reveals meaningful behavior: every filing is stored before grouping can fail, the tool proposes an existing report or opens a new one, and distinct_agent_count influences prioritization. It additionally discloses the rate limit, warns never to put a key in context, and states that no text from another agent comes back in the reply.

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

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

The description is dense and contains no filler, covering purpose, parameters, workflow, security, rate limits, and an alternative tool. However, it forms a long run-on paragraph that mixes several concerns and could benefit from clearer segmentation by sentence or bullet.

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

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

With no output schema, the description correctly documents the reply contract: filing_id, the statuses open/planned/fixed/declined, and how to poll later via getFeedbackStatus. Combined with full parameter coverage in the schema and the explicit alternative tool, an agent has everything needed to invoke it correctly.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description mostly repeats kind/message/context roles already present in the schema; the main added value is the security warning to never place a key in context. It adds no new meaning for title or idempotency_key.

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

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

States the tool's purpose as telling 'something is broken, missing or wrong' and explicitly maps this to the kind enum. It clearly distinguishes itself from sibling reportListing by saying 'To report a specific listing instead, use reportListing.'

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

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

Explains when to use this tool for general feedback and explicitly names reportListing as the alternative for listing-specific reports. It also describes follow-up via getFeedbackStatus and discloses the 20-per-day rate limit, giving an agent clear routing and operational guidance.

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