Read-onlyIdempotent

Run a task on a real website with a real browser: it searches, clicks, filters, reads the page and answers. Charges 0.05 XNO per run via x402. Returns a job id at once; poll jobs via the returned links.status (free) until done.

B3.3/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

The description does add valuable behavior beyond the annotations: a per-run charge of 0.05 XNO via x402, an immediate job-id return, and free polling through links.status. However, it explicitly drives 'a real website with a real browser' on arbitrary domains, which directly conflicts with the openWorldHint=false annotation; per the rubric, a description that contradicts its annotations is penalized here.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Three front-loaded sentences: what it does, what it costs, how to consume the result. Every sentence carries distinct information (capability, price, async lifecycle) with no filler. The action list in sentence one is slightly listy but still 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?

For an async, paid, open-web tool, the description covers the essentials an agent needs: cost, non-blocking job id, and the polling endpoint, and an output schema exists so return values need no explanation. The main gap is the missing guidance on when not to use it and the annotation mismatch on world scope.

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 description coverage is 100%, so both parameters (task, website) are already documented with length bounds and formatting examples. The description adds no syntax, format, or constraint information beyond what the schema already provides, so the baseline 3 applies.

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

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb and resource: 'Run a task on a real website with a real browser', expanded with the concrete actions it performs (searches, clicks, filters, reads, answers). An agent immediately knows this is autonomous browsing, not scraping or search. It does not, however, distinguish itself explicitly from siblings such as scrape_page, scrape_pages, or web_search.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied rather than stated: the description explains the async contract ('returns a job id at once; poll jobs via the returned links.status (free) until done'), which tells the agent how to consume the tool but not when to prefer it over a cheaper scrape or search. There are no exclusions or named alternatives among the sibling set.

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