TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that reads return an asset's bytes and that mutations live elsewhere, but says nothing about permission requirements, rate limits, or byte-return size/format.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence: resource, scope, capabilities, then the exclusion. No padding whatsoever.

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?

For a 5-param read-only tool with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers scope, entities, and capabilities adequately. It omits the 'describe' action and any detail on what 'read bytes' returns, but those gaps are minor given the schema enumerates every action.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% with per-parameter descriptions and two enums, so the schema does the heavy lifting. The description's enumeration of operations (types, list, read) loosely maps to the action enum but adds no format or syntax detail beyond it. Baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States the resource concretely (brand assets: logos, banners, profile photos), the scoping entities (org, workspace, share, user), and the read operations performed (types, list, read bytes). An agent can distinguish this from asset_manage purely from the description.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explicitly routes writes to the sibling `asset_manage`, which is a clean when-not-to-use rule. It lacks a positive trigger statement ('use this when you need to inspect or retrieve assets'), but the read/write split with the alternative named is clear guidance.

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