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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavior. It accurately states the tool generates code rather than executing it, implying a safe, read-only action. However, it does not describe the output format or any contextual behavior (e.g., whether the generated code requires authentication). The description is minimal but not misleading.

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 that contains no filler. Every word contributes to the tool's purpose. It is appropriately concise for a simple code-generation tool.

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 simplicity (one parameter, output schema present) and clear purpose, the description is largely complete. It could mention when to use this over related status snippet tools, but the core functionality is adequately communicated. The output schema likely covers return-value details.

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 schema fully describes the only parameter 'style' with a detailed description: 'sdk uses the Payram SDK, http uses raw HTTP requests'. Since schema coverage is 100%, the description adds no additional parameter information. 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 is highly specific: 'Generates backend code to query the status of a Payram payment.' It clearly states the verb ('generates'), the resource ('backend code'), and the scope ('query the status of a Payram payment'). This distinguishes it from sibling snippet tools like generate_payment_http_snippet or generate_payment_sdk_snippet, which are not focused on status queries.

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. It doesn't mention prerequisites, when this snippet type is appropriate, or explicitly exclude other tools. With many sibling snippet generators, this lack of usage context is a notable gap.

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