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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false, and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds no behavioral context beyond what the annotations convey—no mention of permission requirements, side effects, or hierarchy constraints. With annotations doing the heavy lifting, a 3 is appropriate.

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 followed by a compact field list. Every element earns its place, with no redundant or filler text.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be described, and annotations cover the safety profile. However, the description omits usage context such as required permissions, parent-entity validation, or the full set of acceptable fields for a creation tool with a nested, open-ended input object. It is minimally adequate but leaves clear gaps.

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?

The input schema only defines a single open 'input' object with the vague description 'Entity fields'. The description adds real meaning by naming required field name, the parent entity field entities_id with 0=Root semantics, and optional fields comment and address. However, the trailing 'etc.' indicates the list is incomplete, leaving some parameter semantics undisclosed.

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 states a specific verb (Create) and resource (entity), clearly distinguishing it from siblings like glpi_update_entity, glpi_get_entity, and glpi_list_entities. An agent can immediately tell this is a write operation for a new entity.

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 versus alternatives such as glpi_update_entity or glpi_create_user. It lists fields but does not state prerequisites, exclusions, or typical scenarios for creating an entity.

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