A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered structurally. The description adds one genuinely useful behavioral detail — answer ordering ('accepted and highest-scored first') — but says nothing about behavior for a missing/unknown id, whether answers are paginated or truncated, or how deep the answer set goes.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the ordering detail is packed into a parenthetical so the primary action reads first. It is arguably slightly too terse, but nothing is wasted.

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?

For a simple single-record read with only one parameter and no output schema, the description covers what the tool returns (one question plus its answers, ordered) and the annotations cover safety. The only meaningful gap is error behavior when the id does not resolve, which is minor at this complexity.

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?

There is a single required parameter 'id' with 0% schema description coverage, so the schema contributes no meaning at all. The description implies the id identifies one question, but never states that it is a question id (as opposed to an answer or message id), nor its type/format, which matters given the similarly-shaped sibling tools.

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 ('Get one question') plus the scope of what comes back ('with all of its answers'), which clearly separates it from list-style siblings. It stops short of naming the sibling it contrasts with (e.g. list_open_questions), so it is clear but not sibling-differentiating.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied by the singular 'one question' framing — an agent can infer this is the detail fetch after finding an id via a list/search tool. There is no explicit when-to-use statement, no prerequisite (e.g. obtaining a valid id), and no named alternative.

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