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

Annotations already declare a safe, closed-world read (readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=false), so the description's main job is disclosure of content scope, which it does by naming sizes, prices, shipping, and ordering flow. It does not say anything about response shape or how current the pricing/shipping data is, which is a modest remaining gap.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with what is returned and followed by the call condition. Every clause earns its place with no filler.

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?

For a zero-parameter, read-only info tool with annotations covering the safety profile, the description is nearly sufficient. The only shortfall is that with no output schema, the agent gets no hint of the return structure beyond the listed content categories (e.g., whether sizes/prices arrive as a list or nested objects).

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, so the baseline is 4; the schema is trivially complete and the description correctly implies no inputs are needed. Nothing more could reasonably be documented on this dimension.

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 (List) and concrete resources (mosaic sizes/baseplates, prices, shipping, ordering process). It is clearly distinct from the sibling create_brick_mosaic_preview, which is about making a preview rather than answering pricing/sizing questions.

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?

Explicitly says to call this before creating a preview when the person asks about sizes or price, giving both timing and the triggering condition relative to the sibling tool. Little is left to inference.

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