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

Annotations declare non-read-only, non-destructive, non-idempotent behavior, and the description adds genuinely new context: a third party (the Superset team) receives the person's name and email and will follow up with them, which an agent cannot infer from the schema. It does not address duplicate requests or what a repeat call does, though idempotentHint=false flags that.

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 short sentences, front-loaded with the action, then the downstream effect, then the consent prerequisite. Nothing is redundant.

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 submission tool with full schema coverage and annotations, the description covers the essentials: who is affected, who receives the data, what happens next, and the consent precondition. Return-value behavior is the only unaddressed area, and no output schema exists.

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% and each field is already documented, including agent_name's attribution purpose. The description only echoes 'name and email'; baseline 3 applies since the schema carries the parameter meaning.

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 action (request a free Superset coach trial) and scopes it precisely: it is performed on behalf of the person the agent works for, not the agent itself. That framing makes it unmistakable against unrelated siblings like get_page and list_program_templates.

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?

Provides a clear prerequisite — obtain the person's consent before calling — and clarifies the acting-on-behalf context. It stops short of stating when-not to use it or naming any alternative path, but none of the listed siblings overlaps with this action.

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