TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Adds real context beyond annotations: a per-call credit cost, the note that repeated calls may charge again (corroborating idempotentHint=false), and a prompt-injection warning to treat returned data as untrusted. It doesn't cover rate limits or result caps, but the safety-relevant disclosure is genuinely useful.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Three short sentences, purpose front-loaded, then cost, then the untrusted-data caveat. The billing point is slightly spread across two sentences but nothing is wasted.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a 32-parameter research tool with no output schema, the description says nothing about the shape of the returned weekly metrics or how filtering/paging affects results, and doesn't mention the week-ending-Saturday date semantics that the schema encodes. Annotations and the rich schema cover most of the rest, so this is adequate but thin.

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 coverage is 100%, so all 32 parameters including filters, sorting, paging, and returnFields are already documented in the schema. The description adds no meaning on top, which is the baseline 3 case.

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?

States a specific verb and resource with granularity: 'Research weekly Amazon Brand Analytics keyword metrics.' Clear what data domain is returned, but it doesn't distinguish this from siblings amazon_aba_research_monthly or amazon_aba_research_trends despite them being obvious near-neighbors.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance on when to pick weekly over monthly or trends, nor any prerequisites beyond the required marketplace. The only usage-adjacent content is billing behavior, which is not selection guidance.

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