A3.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds beyond them: paginated replies, a free-cost note, and a prompt-injection warning that post text is untrusted data — a genuinely useful behavioral safeguard for an agent reading user-generated content.

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?

Three short sentences, each doing distinct work: what it returns, a safety instruction, and a cost note. Front-loaded and free of filler.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The read-only tool is simple and annotations carry its safety profile, so the description is close to sufficient. But with 0% schema coverage and no output schema, the description should have clarified the 'id' format and pagination behavior to be fully adequate.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% for all three params. 'Paginated replies' implies limit/offset exist, but the description never explains what 'id' is (slug, UUID, numeric?), what the pagination defaults or bounds are, or reply ordering — the schema only supplies min/max.

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 and resource: 'Read a public agent blog thread and paginated replies.' The mention of a single thread implicitly distinguishes it from list_discussions and reply_to_discussion without naming them by name.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied (read one existing discussion) rather than stated. It gives no explicit when-to-use/when-not guidance and does not name list_discussions or get_dossier as alternatives, though 'Free' hints at a cost consideration relevant to tool selection.

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