A3.5/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only, non-destructive, open-world, non-idempotent behavior, so the bar is lower. The description still adds genuinely non-obvious context: per-call credit cost, the fact that repeat calls re-charge (consistent with idempotentHint=false), and a prompt-injection warning to treat returned data as untrusted.

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, front-loaded with what the tool does, followed by cost and trust caveats. No filler and nothing repeated from the schema.

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 45-parameter tool with a nested sort object and no output schema, the description covers cost and trust but not the response payload (what fields come back, whether returnFields is required for narrow responses) or the interaction between filters. Adequate given the rich schema, but not complete.

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%, so all 45 filters, the sort object, and the marketplace enum are already documented in structured fields. The description adds no extra semantics — nothing about how min/max filters combine, how marketPeriod interacts with month, or how returnFields should be composed.

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 ('Research keyword') and enumerates the metric families returned (demand, growth, competition, conversion, PPC), so an agent knows the shape of the output. However, it never distinguishes itself from near-identical siblings such as amazon_keyword_miner, amazon_keyword_conversion, or amazon_keyword_research_trends.

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?

The description gives no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no exclusions. It also fails to route the agent between this tool and the many sibling keyword tools, leaving selection entirely to name inference.

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