C2.9/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description contributes real extra context — the 100-credit Tier 4 cost, the POST endpoint, and the enter/exact/leave output shape — but says nothing about limits on range length, pagination, or how sampling affects accuracy.

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?

One core sentence plus a compact bracketed metadata block (group, endpoint, required params, cost); every element carries information and the purpose is front-loaded. The bracket lines are slightly list-like rather than prose, but nothing is wasted.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a 9-parameter calculation with an output schema present, the description need not explain returns, yet it leaves the key inputs (orb tolerance, step resolution, planet ID or aspect-angle conventions) undefined and gives no comparison to the many calendar/aspect siblings. An agent could call it but is likely to pass wrong or arbitrary values for maxOrb, stepDays, and planet1Ids.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema coverage is only 22%: only 'fields' and 'precision' are documented in the schema. The description mentions planets and a date range but adds no meaning to maxOrb, stepDays, planet1Ids/planet2Ids, or aspectAngles — notably stepDays, which controls how precisely the exact date is found. With this little coverage the description should compensate and does not.

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 — 'calculate a timeline of when two specific planets form an exact aspect within a date range' — and names the returned structure (enter/exact/leave dates). This clearly separates it from static aspect tools like astroway_aspects_aspect_bar, though it never references a sibling by name.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The '[Required: startDate, endDate]' line is the only selection aid; there is no statement of when to prefer this over astroway_calendar_aspects, astroway_aspects_parallel_aspects, or astroway_calendar_planetary_cycles. The agent must infer usage purely from the verb 'calculate a timeline'.

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