TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive and closed-world, so safety is covered. The one added signal is 'where available', which honestly flags that stage breakdowns may be partial or absent. It does not say what happens when data is missing (error vs. degraded result), so beyond that caveat the description adds modest context.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the output shape is stated before the qualifier. It is arguably too terse rather than padded, which is the better failure mode, but it means nothing beyond the bare shape is communicated.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, and with one fully documented parameter the agent has enough to invoke it correctly. The only residual gap is knowing how this differs from get_processing_times and how a missing stage breakdown manifests.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100% and the single programme_id parameter is fully documented in the schema, including the ambiguity-resolution behaviour. The description adds nothing about the parameter, 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 concrete output ('step-by-step expected timeline') and the resource it is computed for (a programme), including the two components: published processing time and stage breakdown. It does not, however, distinguish itself from the sibling get_processing_times, which sounds like it covers overlapping content.

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 phrase 'for a programme' – the agent must infer this is a per-programme lookup rather than a comparison or global listing. There is no explicit 'use this instead of get_processing_times when…' guidance, which matters given the near-duplicate sibling name.

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