Read-only

Compare up to four legal entities for one year: accounts, tax debt, distress and revenue percentile. on_list false with snapshot_date means not on the EMTA debt list ≥100 € as of that date. Unknown applies only when the list was not observed; a missing tax_debt object is undated and is not absence. Use find_companies to discover codes, or sector_stats for industry medians. Do not look up natural persons.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish this is a safe read-only operation, so the description wisely spends its budget on interpretation semantics instead: what on_list=false with a snapshot_date means, that 'Unknown' means the list was never observed, and that a missing tax_debt object is undated rather than proof of absence. These are non-obvious semantic rules an agent could not infer from the schema or annotations.

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?

Front-loaded with the core comparison scope, then interpretation rules, then alternatives and exclusions. Dense but every sentence carries information; the terminology (on_list, snapshot_date, tax_debt) arrives without definition, which slightly raises reading cost.

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?

An output schema exists, so the description needn't enumerate return values, and it correctly focuses on the edge-case semantics of missing/unknown debt data that the output schema alone would not clarify. Combined with discovery-routing advice, an agent has enough to call this correctly.

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% with both parameters documented (registry_codes with minItems/maxItems, year defaulting to snapshot year). The description only restates 'up to four legal entities' and adds that codes come from find_companies, which is minor added value beyond the schema.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Compare up to four legal entities for one year') plus the exact dimensions returned (accounts, tax debt, distress, revenue percentile). An agent can immediately tell this is a multi-entity comparison tool rather than a single-entity lookup like get_company.

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?

Explicitly routes the agent: use find_companies to discover codes and sector_stats for industry medians, and 'Do not look up natural persons' is a clear exclusion. It lacks direct guidance on when to prefer this over get_company or check_counterparty for overlapping single-entity needs, so it falls short of a 5.

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