Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare the safety profile (readOnly, non-destructive, openWorld, non-idempotent), so the description's job is to add beyond that. It does: the 10-per-hour rate limit is a real operational constraint not present in the annotations, and 'no findings' sets expectations about the abbreviated response.
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?
A single dense sentence that front-loads cost and rate limit, then defines the resource and the excluded payload. Every clause carries information; nothing is filler.
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 one-parameter, read-only, no-output-schema tool, the description covers cost, rate limit, scope, and output summary. Given annotations carry the safety profile, this is close to complete; only the absence of a named full-audit alternative keeps it short of a 5.
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%, but there is only one parameter (url) and the description supplies its meaning via 'for one origin'. For a single, self-evident required parameter this is adequate compensation; no syntax or format detail is given, but little is needed.
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?
States a specific operation and scope: an audit score, grade, and fail/warn counts for one origin. The parenthetical '(no findings)' signals this is the summary-only preview rather than a full report. It does not explicitly distinguish itself from any named sibling, but its purpose is unambiguous.
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?
The phrase 'Free, rate-limited (10 per hour)' implies the tool is the low-cost preview path and sets a hard usage cap, which is useful context for deciding whether to call it. However, it never states when to prefer this over a full audit or names an alternative tool, so usage guidance is only implied.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
