A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, and closed-world behavior, so the description only needs to add context. It does so usefully by disclosing that the call uses local WordPress authentication and requires no WooCommerce REST API keys, which tells the agent it will not fail on missing credentials.

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?

Two short sentences, front-loaded with the action and resource. The reference to mirroring the woocommerce-mcp-server method is mildly redundant but justifies behavioral parity, so it mostly earns its place.

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 simple single-parameter read with full annotation coverage and no output schema, the definition covers purpose, auth model, and safety. The only real gap is the shape of the returned currency list, which an agent might want when deciding between this and wc_get_current_currency.

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?

With a single parameter at 100% schema description coverage, the schema already carries the semantics, including the instruction to call list_sites first and not to pass a URL or post ID. The description adds nothing about site_id, so the baseline of 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource: "Retrieves WooCommerce currencies data." The plural "currencies" implies the full currency list rather than the active one, which faintly distinguishes it from wc_get_current_currency, but that contrast is never made explicit.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied by the verb and resource; there is no explicit statement of when to call this versus wc_get_current_currency or any other currency-related sibling, and no exclusions. The authentication note describes setup, not selection criteria.

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