Where this data comes from, and how to cite it

dataset_provenance

The source, the date it was computed, the licence and the citation for the Inductvo dataset. Read this to attribute a figure correctly.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations available, the description carries the full disclosure burden. It states the exact informational content returned and implies a non-mutating read operation through "Read this." It could explicitly confirm there are no side effects, but the semantics make this reasonably clear.

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?

Two tight sentences with no filler. The first sentence enumerates the deliverable content, and the second gives an actionable use instruction. Front-loaded and efficient.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a zero-parameter provenance metadata tool with no output schema, the description is complete: it identifies the dataset, the fields returned, and the practical purpose. Nothing needed for correct invocation is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool has zero parameters, so parameter semantics are not needed. The description adds context about what the result will contain, fulfilling the baseline expectation for parameterless tools.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a specific resource (the Inductvo dataset) and the exact information returned (source, computed date, licence, citation). It clearly distinguishes this from sibling tools like dataset_search or dataset_stats, which serve different purposes.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

"Read this to attribute a figure correctly" gives clear guidance on when to use the tool. It does not explicitly discuss alternatives, but for a simple provenance lookup the intended use case is obvious.

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