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 fully covered and the description rightly doesn't repeat it. It adds real value by disclosing the guide's content (field types plus examples) and its 'compact' size, but says nothing about the response shape (text vs. markdown vs. JSON) or any limits.
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?
A single front-loaded sentence with the resource first and the payload description second. No filler, no restatement of the title.
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 input parameters and no output schema, the description carries the return-value burden, and it does name the guide's contents and size. It falls short only on how the guide relates to the schema-mutation siblings that presumably consume this format.
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?
The tool takes zero parameters (empty object schema, 100% coverage), so there is nothing to explain and the baseline of 4 applies. The description correctly avoids inventing parameter guidance.
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 a specific verb ('Get') and a specific resource ('native Airparser extraction schema format guide'), plus the contents (field types, examples). This clearly separates it from get_extraction_schema, which returns an actual schema, though the description never names that sibling explicitly.
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?
Usage is only implied: an agent should read this before generating or hand-authoring a schema. There is no explicit 'use this when…' statement and no routing against alternatives such as generate_schema_from_document or update_extraction_schema_from_json_schema, both of which presuppose this format.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
