Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations are absent, so the description carries the full behavioral burden, and it discloses nothing: no read/mutation semantics, no auth or rate-limit notes, no indication of whether results are scoped, paginated, or cached. "Tanks specifications" adds zero behavioral context.
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?
The description is briefly worded but that brevity is under-specification, not conciseness: two words with no verb, scope, or useful front-loaded information. Nothing in it earns its place.
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 single-parameter, no-output-schema, no-annotation tool the structured fields do much of the work, but the description still fails to explain what specifications are returned or how this differs from the numerous closely named tank siblings. Inadequate, though marginally better than a fully undocumented multi-param tool.
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% (region is documented as "Game server region." with an eu/na/asia enum), so the schema fully carries the parameter semantics. The description adds nothing beyond it, which is the baseline-3 case for high coverage.
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?
"Tanks specifications" is a tautological restatement of the tool name with no verb and no scope. It does not distinguish this tool from the many siblings in the tank family, notably tanks_by_slug_specifications, tanks_by_slug_detail, and tanks_by_slug.
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?
No when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternative is stated. An agent cannot tell from the description why it would call tanks_specifications instead of tanks_by_slug_specifications or tanks, and the required region parameter is never motivated.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
