identity_jwks

Read-onlyIdempotent

[Wicked Identity] Public RS256 keys to verify an assertion_token locally. Free. Set sandbox=true for the separate key set that signs sandbox assertions.

Use when you want the public keys to verify an assertion token locally. Not for checking a wallet's status (use identity_status).

Behavior: read-only.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover read-only/idempotent/open-world, so the lower bar applies; the description still adds that the call is free and that sandbox=true returns a separate key set signing sandbox assertions (issuer wicked-identity-sandbox). It omits return shape (e.g. JWKS format), but the annotation set plus the added sandbox-key context is solid.

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 purpose and the sibling exclusion follows immediately. The trailing 'Behavior: read-only.' is redundant with readOnlyHint=true and slightly dilutes an otherwise tight description.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a zero-required-parameter read tool with full schema coverage and complete annotations, the description covers purpose, the sandbox parameter's meaning, and routing to the sibling. An agent has everything needed to call it correctly.

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 description coverage is 100% and the single parameter is already documented in the schema. The description only mildly extends it by noting the sandbox key set signs sandbox assertions, so the baseline of 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?

States a specific verb+resource: returns public RS256 keys for local verification of an assertion_token, plus the sandbox variant. It also explicitly distinguishes itself from identity_status, so an agent can route without opening the schema.

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?

Gives an explicit 'Use when' condition (verifying an assertion token locally) and an explicit 'Not for' exclusion with the named alternative (identity_status for wallet status). Both the positive and negative routing signals are present.

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