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. 'V1 Jobs' reveals nothing about whether this is a read operation, what it queries, how the url and maxTimeout parameters behave, or what the response looks like. Nothing is disclosed beyond the name.
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?
While short, this is under-specification rather than conciseness. Every sentence should earn its place, but here there are no sentences of substance at all - a version tag is not useful information for an agent.
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?
For a 2-parameter tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is completely inadequate. The agent cannot determine what the tool does, what inputs mean, what it returns, or when to select it over its three 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 0% and the description adds no parameter information. The two parameters (url, maxTimeout) are completely undocumented in both schema and description, so an agent has no idea what format url should take or what maxTimeout controls.
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 'V1 Jobs' is a tautology that restates the name with a version label. It provides no verb, no resource explanation, and no distinction from siblings like jobs_indeed, jobs_linkedin, and jobs_multi, leaving the agent unable to determine what this tool actually does.
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 zero guidance on when to use this tool versus the sibling tools. The description gives no context about whether this is a generic aggregator, a specific source, or how it differs from jobs_multi, jobs_indeed, or jobs_linkedin.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
