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

Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false), it discloses that the first send creates the request, later changed sends become revisions of the same request, and that the token is reused as the request's receipt token for request_status and offers. It also rules out downstream effects. It does not cover failure/retry behavior, what 'changed' means precisely, or the role of op_id, so it falls short of exhaustive.

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?

Three dense sentences, front-loaded with the action and the first-send/revision distinction; nothing is padding. The colon-and-em-dash chaining makes it slightly harder to parse than necessary, and the 'Name the revision the buyer saw' phrasing is terse to the point of ambiguity.

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 6-parameter mutation tool with no output schema, the description should say what comes back; it only hints at a receipt token shared with the requirement. It covers the mutation semantics well but leaves op_id, contact handling, and error outcomes unaddressed.

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 coverage is only 50% (op_id and contact are undocumented in the schema), and the description compensates for the most consequential ones: token is explained as both 'its private token' and the receipt token used by request_status and offers, and revision is framed as 'the revision the buyer saw'. op_id, action and contact still receive no prose meaning.

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 and resource ('Send the requirement to Aseptway') and immediately disambiguates the two modes: first send records the request, a later send of a changed requirement records a revision. An agent can distinguish this from edit_requirement or submit_request without opening any schema.

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?

Gives a clear trigger ('once the buyer says to') and an explicit non-use boundary ('This orders nothing: an offer comes later and is accepted separately on its exact terms'), which steers the agent away from confusing this with an ordering step. It stops short of naming the sibling to use instead (e.g., request_status, edit_requirement) or stating prerequisites for the buyer's assent.

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