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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, non-destructive and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful scope (that tax-credit eligibility is conditionally described), but says nothing about return shape, currency/locale handling, or pagination, despite there being no output schema.

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 dense sentence with no filler; the domain and geographic scope come first, followed by the content inventory. Nothing 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?

With no parameters and no output schema, the enumeration of returned categories does real work in telling the agent what a response will contain. Missing is any hint of structure or how tiers/extras ids relate, but for a static reference read this is close to sufficient.

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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4 — there is no argument semantics for the description to carry. The enumerated content list appropriately substitutes for parameter explanation.

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?

Names a specific resource and enumerates its contents precisely (TTC/HT price grid, extras with ids, frequency discounts, area, payment, 50% tax credit). It is clearly a static catalog/introspection tool, distinguishable in substance from quote-generating siblings, though it never says so explicitly.

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?

Usage is only implied: the enumeration suggests an agent calls this to learn pricing and conditions before quoting or booking. It never states when to call it versus get_quote, get_post_construction_estimate, or request_office_quote, which is the real ambiguity given four pricing-adjacent siblings.

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