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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint, and destructiveHint. The description supplements this by detailing default model, cost implications (free vs. BYO key), and return format (per-model {score, confidence, signals, raw_response} + combined view). 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?

The description is a single paragraph with four clear sentences: purpose, model selection, return format, and use cases. Every sentence adds distinct value; 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?

Given no output schema, the description adequately explains return format. Parameters are well-covered, and annotations handle safety. The description could briefly note how results differ from 'scan_competitor_ai_presence', but it is otherwise 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?

Input schema covers all 4 parameters with descriptions (100% coverage). The description adds useful context beyond the schema: default model for 'models', key-passing for '_apiKey', and disambiguation purpose for 'context'. This extra value justifies a score above the baseline 3.

The description clearly identifies the tool as a composite check for npm packages, combining deps.dev and bundlephobia. It specifies the use case ('is X safe/popular/small') and distinguishes from sibling tools by focusing on npm ecosystem decisions.

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: when an agent asks about npm package safety/popularity/size. Also notes scope limitation ('NPM ecosystem only in v1') and directs to deps.dev directly for other ecosystems, providing clear when-not guidance.

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. Description adds details: embedding model (BGE-base-en), cosine similarity, 500-char overlapping windows, 200K char cap with truncation and flagging, plus return of offsets and similarity scores.

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?

Three sentences: purpose, usage, and technical details. No redundancy, front-loaded efficiently.

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?

Covers purpose, usage, behavioral details, parameter hints, limitations, and pairing with sibling tool. Despite lack of output schema, return format (passages with offsets and similarity) is described sufficiently.

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 all three parameters. Description adds minor elaboration like examples for 'query' and default for 'limit', but does not significantly enhance understanding 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 verb 'search inside' and the resource 'a fetched record', distinguishing it from siblings like 'ask_pipeworx_grounded' by specifying that it operates on already-fetched text.

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: 'when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and pairs with 'ask_pipeworx_grounded' as a complementary tool, providing clear context and an alternative.

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 goes beyond annotations by disclosing account requirements, delivery channel limitations, and behavioral details like webhook secret return and auto-disable after 10 failures. No contradiction with annotations; idempotentHint=true is not explicitly addressed but not contradicted.

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 dense and well-structured, starting with core purpose, then type details, then delivery channels. It uses consistent formatting for examples. While packed with useful information, it could be slightly more concise by reducing redundancy in delivery descriptions.

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, the description clearly states the return value (new subscription id). It covers the complexity of multiple subscription types and delivery options, including account prerequisites and constraints. The tool has only 3 parameters, and the description adequately addresses all necessary context for 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?

With 100% schema description coverage, the schema already documents parameters. The description adds significant value with concrete examples (e.g., items codes, topics, series IDs) and detailed delivery channel semantics (e.g., SMS verification, webhook signing). This provides richer context for correct parameter usage.

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 a subscription ID. It lists supported types and differentiates from sibling tools like list_subscriptions, unsubscribe, and recent_alerts, making its purpose distinct and specific.

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 when to use the tool (proactive monitoring) and provides context on required account type (Pipeworx OAuth). It details delivery channels and their constraints (e.g., SMS cap, webhook auto-disable). However, it lacks explicit 'when not to use' or direct comparison to alternative tools, though sibling context fills some gaps.

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 provide read-only, open-world, idempotent, and non-destructive hints. The description adds valuable context: returns category-bucketed example questions with exact tool+argument shape from a live catalog, and mentions the meta-tools usage. 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?

The description is detailed and front-loaded with common questions, making it easy to scan. It could be slightly more concise, but the structure is logical and includes all necessary 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?

Given that this is a discovery tool with no output schema, the description thoroughly explains the output (category-bucketed examples with tool+argument shape). It covers usage, arguments, and purpose completely.

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 adds meaning by listing example topics ('finance', 'pharma', etc.) and explaining the behavior when omitted. This goes beyond the schema's description.

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 explicitly states the tool's purpose: it is the onboarding entry point for a new agent to learn what Pipeworx can do and to see example questions. It also distinguishes itself from sibling tools by noting it teaches how to call meta-tools like ask_pipeworx.

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 clearly states when to use the tool ('Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you') and gives guidance on arguments (no arguments for full spread, or pass a topic). It does not explicitly list when not to use it, but the context 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 ownership enforcement, deactivation (not deletion), and that historical events remain available via recent_alerts. Annotations are sparse, so description adds crucial behavioral detail without contradiction.

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?

Three focused sentences, no redundant information, front-loaded with the primary action.

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 single-parameter tool with no output schema, the description covers purpose, constraints, side effects, and relates to recent_alerts for historical data access.

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%, so description adds little beyond stating the id is a 'Subscription id (uuid) returned by subscribe.' The context of ownership is helpful but not needed for parameter understanding.

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?

Description clearly states 'Cancel a subscription by id' and distinguishes from siblings like 'subscribe' and 'list_subscriptions' by specifying ownership enforcement and deactivation behavior.

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?

Provides clear context: you can only cancel your own subscriptions, and it deactivates rather than deletes. Implicitly guides when to use but doesn't explicitly exclude 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 indicate read-only, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds substantial behavioral detail: it performs verification with two pipelines, returns verdicts with citations and reasoning, and explains the fall-through mechanism. 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?

Description is front-loaded with common trigger phrases and well-structured. It is relatively long but each sentence adds value. Minor reduction possible 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?

Despite no output schema, the description fully explains return values (verdict, actual value with citation, reasoning). It covers both verification pipelines and parameter behavior. No gaps for a claim verification 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?

Schema coverage is 100%. The description adds meaning beyond the schema by explaining how claim is a natural-language statement, tolerance_pct overrides implied tolerance, and defaults. This provides useful context for AI selection.

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: natural-language claim verification against authoritative sources, with specific examples of trigger phrases. It distinguishes from siblings by claiming it replaces 4-6 sequential calls.

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 'Use whenever the agent needs to check...' and describes the two sub-routes (SEC EDGAR vs grounded pipeline). However, it does not specify when not to use this tool or explicitly name alternatives.

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