Read-onlyIdempotent

Search and page through the user's image, clip and audio generations. tags narrows to the ones carrying every tag named — tags are how work is grouped (a client, a campaign).

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds a useful pagination hint ('page through'), but does not expand on the tags AND-filtering cost, ordering, or default result behavior beyond what annotations provide.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Two compact sentences, front-loaded with the core purpose before the tags clarification. No wasted prose, though the tags sentence packs several concepts together.

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

Completeness2/5

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

An output schema exists so return values need not be described, but with 0% schema coverage across 6 parameters the description leaves most filtering/paging semantics (q, kind enum, favorite, cursor) unexplained, which is a material gap for a search tool.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must carry parameter meaning, yet it only explains `tags` (AND semantics, grouping rationale). The other five parameters (q, kind, limit, cursor, favorite) are left entirely undocumented in both schema and description.

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

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb (search/page through) and resource (image, clip and audio generations) scoped to the user. An agent can distinguish it from get_generation or delete_generation by the listing/collection framing, though no sibling is named explicitly.

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 description implies a browsing/discovery use case via 'search and page through' but gives no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternative (e.g., get_generation for a single item). No prerequisites or routing guidance.

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