Tool Definition Quality
Average 3.6/5 across 5 of 5 tools scored.
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: retrieving single article, industry overview, listing articles, listing industries, and searching articles. No overlapping functionality.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (get_, list_, search_), making them predictable and easy to understand.
With 5 tools, the set is well-scoped for serving insight articles and industry overviews, neither too few nor too many.
Covers listing and retrieval of both articles and industries, plus article search. Minor gap: no search for industries, but industries are few and listed.
Available Tools
5 toolsget_articleAInspect
Fetch one insight article as readable text (slug, e.g. "control-tower-operations").
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| slug | Yes |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It indicates a read-only fetch via 'Fetch', but doesn't mention error conditions, prerequisites, or rate limits. Adequate for a simple tool but not 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?
The description is a single sentence with a parenthetical example, front-loading the core action and resource. No wasted words.
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?
Given the tool has an output schema (not shown) and only one parameter, the description sufficiently covers what the tool does. It identifies the input (slug) and what is fetched (readable text). Minor gap: no mention of what happens if slug is invalid.
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 must add meaning. It provides an example slug format (e.g., 'control-tower-operations') which hints at the expected pattern. However, it doesn't explain what a slug represents (e.g., URL-friendly identifier) or constraints.
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?
The description clearly states the verb 'Fetch' and resource 'one insight article', specifies output format as 'readable text', and distinguishes from siblings by focusing on a single article by slug. The example slug further clarifies the input format.
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?
The description implies usage when a specific slug is known and full text is needed. It doesn't explicitly contrast with sibling like list_articles or search_articles, but the example and specificity provide clear context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
get_industry_overviewAInspect
Return a plain-text overview for an industry page (slug, e.g. "retail").
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| industry | Yes |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description only mentions 'plain-text overview' without disclosing behavioral traits such as error handling, rate limits, or whether the overview is static or dynamic. For a tool with no annotations, more detail is expected.
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, well-structured sentence that efficiently conveys purpose and parameter format with no unnecessary words.
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 simple retrieval tool with one parameter and an output schema, the description is mostly complete, though it could mention handling of invalid slugs or missing industries.
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?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description explains that the 'industry' parameter expects a slug (e.g., 'retail'), adding meaningful format guidance beyond the schema's type definition.
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?
The description clearly states the tool returns a 'plain-text overview for an industry page' and specifies the input is a slug like 'retail'. This distinguishes it from siblings like 'get_article' or 'list_industries'.
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?
The description implies usage when needing an industry overview by slug, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives or exclude any use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
list_articlesAInspect
List every Kettle Logic insight article (title, slug, description) as JSON.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
No parameters | |||
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It states the output format but does not disclose any behavioral traits such as idempotency, rate limits, or potential for large responses. It is adequate but minimal beyond listing.
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 is front-loaded with the action and resource, containing no extraneous words. Every part earns its place.
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?
Given the tool's simplicity (no parameters, output schema exists), the description is nearly complete. It could mention if there is pagination or a limit, but 'every' implies full list. The siblings provide context for differentiation.
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?
With zero parameters and 100% schema description coverage, the description adds no parameter information, which is appropriate. The absence of parameters is clear, and the description does not need to compensate.
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?
The description clearly states the action (List), the resource (every Kettle Logic insight article), and the output format (title, slug, description) as JSON. It differentiates from siblings like get_article and search_articles by emphasizing 'every' article.
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?
The description implies usage for retrieving all articles but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like search_articles or get_article. No when-to-use or when-not-to-use conditions are mentioned.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
list_industriesBInspect
List the industries Kettle Logic publishes guidance for (name + slug) as JSON.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
No parameters | |||
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, and the description only mentions the output format (JSON with name and slug). It does not disclose behaviors like whether the list is exhaustive, ordered, or filtered.
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?
Single sentence that is clear, front-loaded, and contains no redundant information. Every word serves a purpose.
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 simple parameterless list tool with an output schema, the description is largely complete. It could clarify whether the result includes all industries or has any limitations, but it is sufficient for basic usage.
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?
With zero parameters, the schema fully covers the input. The description adds value by specifying the returned fields (name + slug) and output format (JSON), which is beyond the schema.
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?
The description clearly states the tool lists industries with name and slug as JSON. It is specific about the resource (industries) and output format, but does not differentiate from sibling tools like get_industry_overview.
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 use this tool versus siblings. There are four sibling tools (get_article, get_industry_overview, list_articles, search_articles), but the description offers no context for choosing this one.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
search_articlesBInspect
Search Kettle Logic insight articles by title, slug or description.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | ||
| query | Yes |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral traits. It only states the search method (by title, slug, description) but discloses no side effects, read-only nature, authentication needs, rate limits, or pagination behavior. Minimal transparency.
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?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no filler. Every word adds value, making it highly efficient for an agent to parse quickly.
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?
Given the tool's search functionality and the existence of an output schema, the description lacks crucial context such as how the query parameter matches (exact, partial, fuzzy), whether results are paginated or sorted, or that it is a read operation. Incomplete for a search tool with no annotations.
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?
With 0% schema coverage, the description should compensate but only hints that the query parameter searches by title, slug, or description. It does not explain the 'limit' parameter or the expected format of the query. Adds little value beyond the raw schema.
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?
The description clearly states the tool searches Kettle Logic insight articles by title, slug, or description. It uses a specific verb ('Search') and identifies the resource and searchable fields, distinguishing it from sibling tools like list_articles (which lists all) and get_article (which retrieves by ID).
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?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., get_article, list_articles). It does not mention when not to use it or any prerequisites, leaving the agent to infer context from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
