C2.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations and no output schema, the description carries the full behavioral burden and does not meet it. 'Reattest' implies some re-verification/attestation semantics, but the description never says whether this is a read, a re-attestation write, what permissions it needs, or what it returns. It only lists topics.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is a single short fragment with no wasted words, but it is a sentence fragment rather than a structured statement, and its brevity is closer to under-specification than intentional concision. The parenthetical list is front-loaded, which is the one structural strength.

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

Completeness2/5

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

With no output schema and no annotations, the description is the only source of information about what an agent gets back, and 'documented limits (…)' does not describe the return shape, units, or format. For a tool whose only job is to surface limits, that leaves a significant gap.

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 nothing for the description to disambiguate; the baseline for a 0-param tool is 4. No schema detail is duplicated or contradicted.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description names a resource ('documented limits') and hints at content areas (signal-bound detection, latency, receipt acceptance, WTP), which is more than the bare name provides. But it is a noun fragment with no verb, and the cryptic 'reattest' prefix plus unexplained acronyms (WTP) leave the actual operation ambiguous. It offers no differentiation from the five sibling reattest_* tools.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of any alternative sibling tool. An agent has no basis for choosing this over reattest_floors, reattest_pricing, or the others.

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