Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds nothing behavioral beyond the format list already present in the schema enum — it doesn't say whether output is returned as base64, a file reference, or a URL, nor any size/duration limits. 'client and server side' is indeterminate filler.
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?
A single sentence that front-loads the core action, but it wastes words on the ambiguous 'client and server side from freedailypro' clause while omitting information that would actually help an agent invoke it.
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?
There is no output schema, so the description should explain what comes back — a converted audio blob, base64 string, or link — and it does not. For a tool with two required parameters at 0% schema coverage, one of which (fileBase64) is entirely undocumented, the definition is not complete enough to call reliably.
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 carries the full burden for two required parameters. It restates the format enum (already fully enumerated in the schema) but says nothing about fileBase64 — whether it is raw base64 of the audio bytes, whether a data URI prefix is accepted, or any size limit.
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 (Convert) and resource (audio) plus the supported target formats, so the agent can tell this apart from audio_compress, audio_merge, or audio_normalize at a glance. The trailing 'client and server side from freedailypro' adds no discriminating meaning.
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?
No guidance on when to choose this over the many adjacent audio siblings (audio_compress for size reduction, video_extract_audio for pulling audio out of video), and no prerequisites or exclusions stated. Usage is only implied by the word 'Convert'.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
