D1.8/5.0
Behavior2/5

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, so safety is covered. The description adds nothing beyond that — no indication of result size, pagination, permissions, or what the nested query object controls, despite being the only non-schema source of behavioral context.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

It is short, but it wastes an entire sentence duplicating the identical endpoint path verbatim. The remaining content is an operation ID and a pointer, so brevity here reflects under-specification rather than efficient communication.

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

Completeness1/5

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

For a nested-object, zero-coverage-schema tool with no output schema and no annotations covering return shape, the description supplies nothing an agent could act on: no input contract, no result description, no constraints. It is effectively a stub that offloads everything to describe_operation.

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

Parameters1/5

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

There are 2 parameters with 0% schema description coverage, and the 'query' parameter is an unconstrained nested object with additionalProperties and no enumerated keys. The description provides zero semantics for either parameter, deferring entirely to describe_operation, leaving the agent unable to construct a call from the definition alone.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description only restates the HTTP path 'GET /api/search/global' twice; it never says what is searched (leases, contracts, documents?) or what the result set represents. The verb+path hints at a global search but gives no resource scope, and it does nothing to distinguish itself from siblings like search_operations or get_contracts_tags_search.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The only routing guidance is 'describe_operation provides native request schemas', which points to a sibling for schema discovery rather than explaining when to use this tool over alternatives. There is no statement of when this global search is preferable to the many entity-specific list/search tools in the catalog.

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