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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds one behavioral trait beyond that — that results are 'privacy-filtered' — which is useful context, but it says nothing about pagination behavior or what the impact result contains.

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 short, front-loaded sentence with no filler or redundancy. It is concise, though the brevity comes at the cost of substance rather than being a model of tight, informative phrasing.

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 six-parameter analysis tool with no output schema, the description is far too thin — it never explains what an impact analysis computes, how nodeIds/executionId/sessionId shape the result, or what the agent should expect back. Annotations cover safety but not the analytical semantics.

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 100%, so the schema already documents all six parameters in detail (cursor, nodeIds, pageSize, projectId, sessionId, executionId). The description adds no parameter meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 restates the tool name ('analyze impact') without explaining what an impact analysis actually is, what it operates on, or what it returns. 'Read hosted analyze impact' is close to a tautology, and no sibling is named or distinguished despite many neighboring graph/analysis tools.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no indication of which alternative tools to pick instead. The phrase 'using privacy-filtered project metadata' hints at the data source but does not tell the agent when this tool is the right choice.

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