B3.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/idempotent/non-destructive, so the safety bar is low. The description adds real value beyond that: the returned content (progress, profile, facts with provenance and verification status) and the cost signal ('Free'), which is not in the annotations. No output schema exists, so this return-shape disclosure is doing useful work.

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 sentence plus a one-word fragment, so it is not bloated, but the structure is awkward and the dense run-on clause about facts/provenance is hard to parse. The trailing 'Free.' is abrupt.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a read-only tool with no output schema, the description does roughly sketch the return payload and states cost. But the garbled wording and the absence of any pointer to ugcfans_read_business as the prerequisite step leave an agent to infer too much of the lifecycle.

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 the schema already documents both 'business' and 'search'. The description restates the optional search ('searches the pages for words') without adding format or syntax, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 verb+resource are present ('Reads a business') and it gestures at returning profile, facts, and reading progress. But the phrasing is garbled ('how far the reading is', 'whether it stands or waits for a yes') and it never distinguishes this from siblings like ugcfans_read_business or ugcfans_find_business, which likely share the same noun.

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?

The phrase 'a business that was read' implies a prerequisite that a read job must have run first, and the schema confirms the id comes from ugcfans_read_business. However, no alternatives are named and there is no explicit when-to-use vs when-not guidance; usage is only inferred.

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