TDQS

A4.1/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, and closed-world behavior, so the description needn't repeat safety. It adds genuinely new operational facts: a 15-minute refresh cadence, live data, UK-only scope, active listings only, and a hard 10-result ceiling. It says nothing about empty-result behavior or pagination, but the output schema covers the response shape.

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?

Front-loaded with the core fact (fresh active listings, cap, cadence), then use cases, then filters. Slight redundancy between 'refreshed every 15 minutes' and the trailing 'Live data,' which could be dropped.

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 zero-required-parameter browse tool with annotations and an output schema, the description covers freshness, geography, active-only scope, the result cap, and intended question types. Only edge behavior (no results, how 'freshest' is ordered) is left unstated.

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 67%: limit and maxPrice are already documented (including the 1-10 range and GBP), and category is self-describing through its enum. The description only adds that both filters are optional and that the result set is capped at 10, which is marginal value over the schema.

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 a specific resource and scope: 'up to 10 of the freshest active UK listings, refreshed every 15 minutes.' It also contrasts itself against filter-driven browsing ('rather than a specific filter'), which is enough for an agent to choose between this and the search/search_bikes family.

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?

Gives concrete when-to-use examples ('what's new today?', 'any new road bikes this week?') and an explicit when-not ('rather than a specific filter'). It stops short of naming the alternative tool to use instead, so routing still requires a small inference.

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