A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds the nuance of 'visible tasks,' implying some tasks may be hidden, which is not covered by annotations. It also mentions filtering, sorting, and pagination, giving behavioral context beyond the safety profile. No contradictions.

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?

One concise sentence with the core purpose front-loaded. Zero waste. Every word earns its place.

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?

Given the simple read-only nature and the rich schema covering all params, the description is sufficient. It lacks explicit return format details, but with no output schema and the tool being a list operation, the expected response is clear from context. The 'visible' filter is a minor behavioral note not fully elaborated but acceptable.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so all parameters are documented with descriptions. The description's mention of 'filtering, sorting and pagination' maps to existing params but adds no new meaning. Baseline 3 is appropriate since the schema carries the semantic weight.

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

Purpose5/5

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

Description states a specific verb ('List') and resource ('tasks for an order'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like order-read (orders) and order-task-write (writes). The word 'visible' adds precision. No ambiguity.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Description clearly indicates when to use it (to list tasks for an order) and requires order_number. It does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use, but the tool name and purpose make the context obvious. No misleading exclusions.

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