Description opens with a specific verb ('composite check'), names the exact resources (npm package, deps.dev, bundlephobia), and clearly states what it evaluates (license, advisories, bundle size, etc.). It distinguishes itself from over 30 sibling tools by targeting npm packages exclusively.

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?

Explicitly states when to use: 'whenever an agent asks is X safe / popular / small or what does adding lodash cost me'. Also clarifies ecosystem scope ('NPM ecosystem only in v1') and where other ecosystems fall. Does not include negative examples (when not to use), but positive guidance is clear.

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

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

Discloses embedding model, window size, character cap with truncation behavior, and that offsets are returned for verification. Adds significant context beyond annotations.

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?

Four sentences, front-loaded with core purpose, followed by use case, pairing, and technical details. No wasted words.

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?

Despite no output schema, description explains returned passages with offsets and similarity scores, and notes truncation flag. Complete for agent usage.

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 coverage is 100%. Description adds examples for queries and clarifies the text parameter's max size, providing valuable context beyond schema descriptions.

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 'Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record' with specific verb and resource. It distinguishes by pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded, setting it apart from siblings.

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?

Explicit when-to-use: 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt — search_within saves context.' Also mentions pairing with another tool, but no explicit when-not-to-use.

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

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

The description adds behavioral context beyond annotations: it states the tool is a write operation (consistent with readOnlyHint=false), requires OAuth, has SMS rate limits (10/day), and describes idempotency? It doesn't clarify if repeated calls create duplicates (idempotentHint=true not explained). No contradiction with annotations.

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 well-structured with bullet-like formatting and front-loaded purpose. It is fairly long but each sentence adds value. Could be slightly more concise by merging some examples, but overall effective.

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 description covers required authentication, supported types, delivery channels, and constraints. Missing output schema is partially mitigated by mentioning 'Returns the new subscription id', though a full response structure description would be beneficial. Given the tool's complexity, it is nearly complete.

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 coverage is 100% and the description enriches every parameter with concrete examples (e.g., items:["5.02"], topic:"fed", series_id:"UNRATE"). Delivery channels are explained in detail, including webhook signing, phone verification, and rate limits, adding significant value.

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 tool creates a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream and returns the new subscription id. It lists specific types (e.g., sec_8k, polymarket_edge, fred_series) with examples, distinguishing it from sibling tools like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe.

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 specifies the OAuth account requirement and supported types with parameter examples. It explains delivery channels, but does not explicitly mention when to avoid using it (e.g., for pull-based alerts use recent_alerts). However, the context is clear enough for appropriate use.

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

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds valuable context: it's an onboarding entry point, returns example questions, and can be called with no arguments. No contradictions.

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?

Well-structured with alternative queries at start, function description, parameter usage, and usage advice. All sentences are informative and concise, with no redundancy.

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?

Given the tool's simplicity (one optional parameter, no output schema), the description covers purpose, parameter, usage context, and return structure comprehensively.

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 coverage is 100% and description explains the topic parameter's purpose and values. Adds meaning beyond schema by clarifying omitting topic gives a full cross-category spread, which is helpful.

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 tool returns category-bucketed example questions with exact tool+argument shapes, serving as an onboarding entry point. It distinguishes from siblings like ask_pipeworx by specifying it helps users discover what to ask.

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?

Explicitly says to use this tool first when unsure about Pipeworx's capabilities and to learn meta-tool calls. Also explains that passing a topic focuses results, providing clear guidance on when and how to use.

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

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

Adds context beyond annotations: ownership enforcement and deactivation behavior. Annotations indicate mutation (readOnlyHint=false) and idempotency (idempotentHint=true), which are consistent with the description.

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?

Two concise sentences: first states the action and constraint, second explains the behavioral effect. No superfluous information.

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 simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers all essential aspects: action, ownership restriction, and data lifecycle consequence, linking to a related sibling tool.

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?

The sole parameter 'id' is fully described in the schema ('Subscription id (uuid) returned by subscribe.'). The description does not add additional semantic meaning, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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?

Clearly states 'Cancel a subscription by id.' The verb 'cancel' and resource 'subscription' are specific, and it distinguishes from sibling tools like 'subscribe' and 'list_subscriptions'.

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?

Explicitly states ownership enforcement — 'you can only cancel your own subscriptions' — and explains the effect: deactivated, not deleted, with historical events available via 'recent_alerts', providing clear when-to-use and alternatives.

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

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description adds rich detail: internal routing logic (fast path vs. grounded pipeline), return format (verdict with categories, actual value with citation, reasoning), and the fact that it replaces 4-6 sequential calls. This goes well beyond annotations.

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 somewhat long but well-structured, starting with natural-language query examples and clearly separating the two processing paths. Every sentence serves a purpose, though it could be slightly more concise without losing clarity.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (two distinct processing paths, two parameters, no output schema), the description covers all necessary aspects: purpose, usage, behavior, parameter details, and return value. It fully compensates for the lack of output schema by explicitly listing verdict categories and citation format.

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 coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds value by providing examples for 'claim' and explaining the override behavior and default for 'tolerance_pct', which is not captured in the schema alone.

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 tool's purpose: claim verification against authoritative sources. It differentiates between company-financial claims (SEC EDGAR+XBRL fast path) and other factual claims (grounded pipeline), providing specific examples and distinguishing it from sibling tools that handle other types of queries.

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?

Explicitly states when to use: 'whenever the agent needs to check whether something a user said is factually correct.' It also describes two processing paths, helping the agent understand scope. However, it doesn't explicitly mention when not to use it, which would have made it a 5.

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