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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=false, so safety is covered. Beyond that, the description discloses the response shape, the meaning of permalink_quota as left-of-total, and the downstream failure mode where exceeding the cap rejects the entire add_asset_permalinks batch — real context an agent cannot get from the empty schema.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with what it returns, then the quota caveat. Every sentence earns its place, though the final clause about the refused batch is slightly long-winded for the value it carries.

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?

With no output schema, the description carries the return-value burden and does so fully: fields, the slug's role as cross-tool identifier, and the quota structure. Nothing an agent needs to call this correctly is missing.

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 tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4 and there is nothing for the description to compensate for. It adds no param detail because none exists to add.

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?

States a specific verb and resource (list workspaces/organizations) and immediately disambiguates the term 'organizations' against 'workspaces'. It also enumerates the returned fields (slug, name, role), which no sibling list_* tool claims, so an agent can tell it apart.

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?

Gives a concrete when-to-use: call this before a large add_asset_permalinks batch to check remaining permanent-URL quota, explaining the overage consequence. It also notes the slug is the identifier other tools expect. It does not, however, position itself against the other list_* siblings (list_boards, list_members), so no exclusion guidance.

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