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

Annotations already declare this as a non-destructive, idempotent read operation, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds some scope by saying it returns personal and organization workspaces, but it does not disclose pagination behavior or ordering despite the limit/offset parameters.

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?

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with no wasted wording. It is appropriately brief for a simple list operation, though its brevity contributes to missing behavioral and parameter detail.

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?

The tool is simple, read-only, and has both annotations and an output schema, so the description need not explain return values or safety. However, it omits pagination semantics for the two parameters and does not state whether the personal workspace is always included or how results are ordered.

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%, so the schema supplies only names and constraints for limit and offset. The description does not mention pagination or explain how those parameters affect the result, leaving the agent to infer standard limit/offset semantics.

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 gives a specific verb and resource ('List ... workspaces') and adds useful scope by distinguishing personal from organization workspaces. It does not differentiate from any sibling tool, but no sibling is a direct workspace-listing alternative.

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 description states what the tool does but gives no explicit guidance on when to call it, when not to call it, or which alternative to prefer. Usage is only implied by the tool name and resource listed.

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