  3. First observed

TDQS

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and destructiveHint=false, so restating 'Read-only' adds nothing. The one genuinely new behavioral detail is that hosts supporting MCP Apps surface the result to the user in the Revnu app, which tells the agent the output is user-visible. That is useful but thin, so 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

Three short sentences, front-loaded with what is returned before the host-behavior aside. The 'Read-only' sentence is redundant against the annotations and is the only wasted line.

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 need not enumerate return fields, and it correctly avoids doing so while still hinting at the shape (schedule, next run, steps). Annotations carry the safety profile, so nothing critical is missing, though sibling differentiation could be stronger.

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

Parameters4/5

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

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is no parameter semantics for the description to explain; baseline for a no-parameter tool applies. Schema coverage is reported at 100% regardless.

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?

The description names a specific resource and enumerates its contents ('recurring workflows with their schedule, next run and steps'), so an agent knows it lists scheduled workflows rather than workflow executions. It does not explicitly name the sibling it is not (workflow_runs), but the resource framing separates them adequately.

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?

There is no statement of when to call this versus workflow_runs, nor any prerequisite or context trigger. Usage is only weakly implied by 'the customer's recurring workflows'. With a sibling that lists runs of those workflows, an explicit routing cue is conspicuously absent.

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