A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

readOnlyHint=true already declares the safety profile, so the bar is lower. The description adds genuinely useful non-schema context: the account requirement, the client authentication step, and the start_login-then-retry path. It does not discuss cost, rate limits, or error behavior on an invalid ID, which keeps it short of a 5.

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?

Purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence and the auth note is a clearly separated block. Both parts earn their place, though the parenthetical Claude Code UI instructions are somewhat verbose for a tool definition.

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 return values need not be described, and the description still previews the payload contents. Combined with the disclosed auth prerequisite and readOnly annotation, an agent has what it needs to call this correctly; only the relative ordering against sibling verification tools is missing.

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?

There is a single parameter with 100% schema description coverage, so the schema already documents it. The phrase 'by ID' confirms the parameter's role but adds no format, source, or lookup guidance beyond that, which is the expected baseline when the schema does the work.

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 ('Get details of a specific domain by ID') and enumerates what comes back (verification status, DNS records, provider connections). It is clearly distinct from list_domains and delete_domain by name and content, though it never explicitly names the sibling it contrasts with.

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 second paragraph gives real operational guidance on authentication and the start_login fallback, which is more than most tools offer. However, it says nothing about when to use this tool versus check_domain_verification, list_domains, or check_domain_credentials, leaving the choice between sibling lookups implicit.

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