B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description usefully adds that the response carries account-specific captions, publication state and validation warnings, but says nothing about auth/permission scope or behavior for a nonexistent post_id.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

One sentence, front-loaded with verb and resource, no filler and nothing redundant. Every clause (captions, publication state, warnings) adds information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, the description needn't document return values, and annotations cover the safety profile, so the remaining need is minimal. Only the missing post_id semantics and sibling routing keep it short of complete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

A single required post_id at 0% schema description coverage; the description only implies via "one post" that the id selects a single post. It never states the id format, origin, or whether it comes from list_posts, so it does little to compensate for the coverage gap.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb ("Read") and resource ("one post") and enumerates what the payload includes: account-specific captions, publication state, validation warnings. This distinguishes it from list_posts (plural/bulk) without naming the sibling explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Usage is only implied by the singular "one post"; there is no statement of when to prefer this over list_posts, validate_post, or get_post_analytics, and no prerequisites or exclusions are given for a catalog with many lookalike read tools.

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