TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful behavioral context: it returns up to 5 results, filters to active listings, and explains the weighting logic (same brand or frame size weighted higher). This goes beyond the annotations without contradicting them.

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?

Three sentences with no waste. The core behavior and criteria are front-loaded, the usage trigger is stated, and the example is illustrative without being verbose.

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?

The description covers what the tool does, when to use it, and key behavioral constraints (active listings, up to 5 results, weighting). An output schema exists, so return values don't need to be described. Minor gap: it doesn't mention error behavior for invalid slugs, but this is not critical for a read-only lookup tool.

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% and the single parameter 'slug' is described as 'Source listing URL slug.' The description adds the semantic context that the slug identifies a Cyclesite listing, but the schema already fully documents the parameter. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

The description states a specific verb ('find'), a resource ('similar active listings'), and precise criteria (same category, ±25% price, brand/frame size weighting). It also gives a concrete example of when to use it, which clearly distinguishes it from siblings like search or get_recent_listings.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description explicitly says 'Use when the user is interested in one bike and wants alternatives' and provides an example utterance. This gives clear context for when to invoke this tool versus alternatives like search or compare_bikes.

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