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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint/idempotentHint/destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds cost and tier metadata ('20 credits (Tier 2)'), which is genuinely useful operational context not present in the annotations, but it discloses nothing about output shape or cascade behavior.

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?

It is very short and front-loads the one substantive phrase ('4-level cascade'). Every sentence is short and non-redundant, though the sparseness reflects under-specification rather than optimal concision.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values needn't be explained, but for a tool sitting in a dense family of near-identical dasha-level siblings, the description does nothing to help an agent choose it or understand what '4-level cascade' delivers. It is not complete enough to disambiguate from its siblings.

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%, so the body/fields/precision parameters are already fully documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter semantics, which is the correct baseline when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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?

The description restates the tool name/title ('Chara Sookshmadasha') and adds only '4-level cascade', which hints at structural depth but never states what the tool computes or returns. It does not distinguish this sookshma level from the sibling levels (chara_maha/antar/pratyantar/prana) beyond an opaque '4-level cascade' phrase.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool, when to prefer it over the other Chara dasha levels, or what input state it requires. The only extra text is group/cost metadata, not usage direction.

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