  3. First observed

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely useful behavior beyond that: the 50-keyword cap on the returned card, which tells the agent the result is truncated rather than complete.

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?

Three short sentences, trigger first, payload second, exclusion last. No filler and nothing buried.

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

Completeness4/5

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

With an output schema present, return values needn't be spelled out, and annotations cover the safety profile, so the definition is nearly complete for a one-parameter read. The only meaningful gap is that it never positions itself against get_app or list_apps.

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% and the single appId parameter is documented as a uuid in the schema, so the schema carries the load. The description adds nothing about appId format or where to obtain it, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

Names a specific verb+resource (show an overview of a tracked app) and enumerates the payload: connected stores, locales, and up to 50 tracked keywords. It rules out keyword rankings, but never distinguishes itself from the closest sibling, get_app, leaving the agent to guess between two app-scoped reads.

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?

"Use this when someone wants a quick overview" is an explicit trigger, and "Not for keyword rankings" is an explicit exclusion that routes ranking questions elsewhere. It stops short of naming the alternative tool for rankings or explaining when get_app is preferable.

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