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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only gives vague hints about behavior (multi-step reasoning, delegation) and does not disclose specifics like how it processes questions, handles errors, or its limits. Significant gap in behavioral disclosure.

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 extremely concise: a single sentence that front-loads the tool's purpose and key use cases. Every word is necessary and contributes to understanding.

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 complexity as a general agent with delegation capabilities and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what internal tools it can delegate to, how to formulate questions effectively, or what kind of responses to expect. More detail is needed for an agent of this scope.

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 coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate for parameter meanings. It does not mention either parameter ('question' or 'lang'), though 'question' is self-explanatory from its name and 'lang' has an enum. The description adds no value beyond the schema, failing to provide additional semantics.

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's purpose: 'Ask Alya - the operator agent. Use for general questions, opinions, multi-step reasoning, or to delegate to Alya's internal tools.' It uses specific verbs and resources and distinguishes from sibling tools which are more specialized.

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 clear context on when to use this tool: for general questions, opinions, multi-step reasoning, or delegation. It implicitly suggests not using it for specialized tasks covered by sibling tools, but lacks explicit exclusions or alternative tool names.

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