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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. Because there is no output schema, the description's enumeration of the four possible run states is genuinely useful return-value disclosure, though it says nothing about permissions or freshness of the status.

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?

A single compact sentence with no filler, and the key qualifier about latest-vs-given run is placed early. It is an incomplete sentence fragment, which slightly hurts readability but not economy.

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?

For a simple read-only, two-parameter tool with annotations covering safety and no output schema, the description supplies the state vocabulary an agent needs to interpret results. Missing only explicit routing guidance to sibling tools, which is minor here.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so both parameters are already documented in the schema, including the 'latest when left out' default for job_id. The description only restates that default and adds no format or ID-syntax detail beyond the schema, so the baseline 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 names the resource (a model's training runs) and the exact information returned (queued/running/finished/failed), which is more specific than the name or title alone. However, it is a noun phrase rather than a verb+resource statement and does not differentiate itself from siblings such as train, model_report, or fill_status.

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?

Usage is only implied: the parenthetical '(or a given)' hints that you may query either the latest run or a specific one. There is no explicit statement of when to use this versus model_report or other status-related siblings, and no prerequisites are mentioned.

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