With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does disclose that the tool returns a definition, pronunciation, and every occurrence, which is useful scope information. However, it does not mention output format, potential performance implications of 'every occurrence', or error handling.
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, well-structured sentence that front-loads the core purpose and lists the key deliverables. Every word earns its place, with no redundancy or filler.
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 one-parameter tool with no output schema, the description adequately covers what the agent can expect: definition, pronunciation, and occurrences. It could be slightly more explicit about the response format, but the essentials are present.
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 100% for the only parameter 'strongs', with examples provided. The description adds no new parameter-level detail beyond what the schema already explains, so the baseline of 3 applies.
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 identifies the tool as a Strong's word study that provides original-language definition, pronunciation, and every occurrence. This specific combination distinguishes it from sibling tools like pronounce and word_occurrences, which cover only individual aspects.
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 comprehensive word study is needed, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives such as original_words, pronounce, or word_occurrences. No exclusions or alternative recommendations are provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
