Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered by structured data. The description adds the workspace-bound scoping constraint (records outside the workspace are presumably not reachable) but says nothing about behavior on a missing or foreign id.
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?
One sentence, front-loaded with the verb and resource, with no filler. It is terse to the point of being slightly thin, but nothing in it is wasted.
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-by-id tool with full parameter documentation and complete annotations, the essentials are covered. However, there is no output schema and the description does not say what a 'simulation scenario' contains or what a not-found response looks like, leaving a modest gap for an agent deciding what to do with the result.
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 the single 'id' parameter is documented with its format constraints (pattern, length) and origin ('returned by a previous request'). The description adds no syntax or lookup guidance beyond the schema, so the baseline of 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 a specific verb ('Get'), a specific resource ('one simulation scenario') and a scope ('belonging to this workspace'), which is enough to separate it from list_simulation_scenarios and get_simulation. It stops short of naming those siblings explicitly, so the differentiation is inferred rather than stated.
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?
There is no guidance on when to call this rather than list_simulation_scenarios or get_simulation. The only contextual cue is the workspace scoping, from which an agent must infer that this is the by-id single-record fetch.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
