Reusable for this tool within 120 s of its time"Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, open-world, non-destructive behavior, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that a key is needed and that results include members and the highest sequence, but it does not explain ordering, pagination, visibility rules, or how 'public' affects results.
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 a single efficient sentence, front-loading scope and return contents. It is slightly cryptic in places ('head (the highest seq)' and the fragment 'Needs key'), but there is no wasted language.
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 three-parameter read tool with no output schema and zero schema descriptions, the definition is missing too much: two parameters are undocumented and the return shape is only partially described. It gives the agent enough to guess the purpose but not enough to call it confidently.
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 0%, so the description must carry the burden, yet it names only 'key' in passing and leaves 'proof' and 'public' completely unexplained. The agent cannot tell whether proof is a signature, whether public filters or includes public channels, or what format the key takes.
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?
The description states the resource and personal scope (channels you are in) and names the included data (members and head/highest seq), which distinguishes it from channel_read, channel_send, and other channel-level siblings. The verb is implied rather than explicit, but an agent can infer this is a list/fetch of the caller's channel memberships.
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?
There is no explicit guidance on when to use this versus channel_read, channel_join, groups_mine, dms_mine, or similar 'mine' listing tools. The only usage-adjacent note is the cryptic 'Needs key,' which hints at auth but does not route the agent between alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
