Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It states the output is a download URL, which is helpful, but lacks details on potential side effects, authentication needs, or rate limits. The behavior is minimally disclosed.
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 concise with a single sentence that front-loads the core purpose. However, it omits parameter details, which could be included without much verbosity. It is efficient but slightly underspecified.
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?
With 3 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description should provide more context about optional parameters (voice, rate) and the download URL behavior (e.g., expiration). It is incomplete for effective agent invocation.
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%, requiring the description to explain parameters. However, it does not mention any of the three parameters (text, voice, rate), leaving the agent to infer from names alone. This adds minimal value beyond the schema.
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 clearly states the transformation from text to natural MP3 narration, with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like transcribe and translate by focusing on narration generation.
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 implies usage for generating voiceovers but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like script or summarize. No exclusions or when-not-to scenarios are mentioned.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
