B3.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only mentions that the process is over the authenticated API, which hints at authentication requirements. It does not disclose whether the tool is read-only, what it returns, or any side effects. This is a significant gap for a tool with no annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, concise sentence that directly states the tool's content. It is front-loaded with the core idea and contains no superfluous words. Every word contributes to the meaning.

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?

Given that the tool has no parameters and no output schema, the description is relatively complete for a simple how-to guide. However, it does not clarify what the agent will actually receive when invoking the tool (e.g., instructions text, steps, or an API call). This lack of clarity about the tool's output or behavior makes it slightly incomplete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The input schema has zero parameters, and schema description coverage is 100%. Baseline for 0 params is 4. The description does not need to explain parameters since there are none, and it does not introduce any ambiguity. No additional parameter information is required.

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?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: it explains how an agent claims a page and adds/verifies handles via the authenticated API. It uses specific verbs ('claims', 'adds/verifies') and references the API, making the purpose clear. However, it does not explicitly differentiate itself from sibling tools like resolve_handle or get_profile, which also deal with handles and pages.

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 description implies that this tool should be used when an agent needs to claim a page or manage handles, but it does not provide explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. There is no mention of alternatives or exclusions, so the usage context is clear but not fully elaborated.

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