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 two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, then filters. Every word is necessary; 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 12 parameters, rich schema with examples, output schema, and thorough annotations, the description is adequate. It could mention pagination behavior or response structure, but not essential.

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 clear descriptions for all 12 parameters. Description lists filter types but adds little meaning beyond schema. 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?

Description clearly states it performs full-text search across Discogs entities (releases, masters, artists, labels) with filtering. Verb 'search' and resource are explicit, and the scope distinguishes from siblings like 'get_artist' or 'search_within'.

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?

Description implies usage for searching Discogs with filters but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_artist' or 'search_within'. No exclusions or when-not-to-use guidance provided.

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?

Beyond annotations (readOnly, idempotent), the description discloses: uses BGE-base-en embeddings, cosine similarity over 500-char overlapping windows, 200K char cap with truncation flagged, and returns offsets and similarity scores. This is comprehensive for a semantic search tool.

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?

Very concise: front-loaded with core action, then targeted elaboration on use case, pairing, and technical details. No redundant or irrelevant sentences.

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 moderate complexity and no output schema, the description covers inputs, behavior (embeddings, windowing), limits (200K chars, truncation), outputs (passages, offsets, scores), and usage scenarios. Complete enough for an agent to invoke correctly.

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 baseline is 3. The description adds value by explaining query examples (e.g., 'supply-chain risk'), noting that limit controls top-N passages, and reiterating the 200K char cap. This goes slightly beyond 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 states precisely: 'Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record' with clear verb (search, returns passages), resource (text inside a record), and concrete examples (SEC 10-K, article). It distinguishes from siblings like ask_pipeworx_grounded by noting that this tool is for searching already-fetched text, while the sibling grounds over passages.

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'. Also indicates pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded, implying a workflow. This differentiates from the sibling and provides clear context for appropriate invocation.

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 significant behavioral context beyond annotations, such as delivery channels, constraints (SMS cap, webhook auto-disable), and return value. However, there is a contradiction: annotation idempotentHint is true, but the description describes a creation operation that is typically non-idempotent. This inconsistency reduces reliability.

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, starting with the core action and then detailing types and delivery options. Every sentence adds value, covering prerequisites, examples, and edge cases without unnecessary fluff.

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 complexity of the tool with 3 parameters, nested objects, and no output schema, the description covers the return value (subscription id) and important constraints. However, it does not state whether the subscription is immediately active or if there is any default state, which is a minor gap.

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 description enriches each parameter with detailed examples, use cases, and constraints. For instance, it explains the specific filters for each subscription type and the delivery object's fields. This goes well beyond the schema's basic 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 states the purpose clearly: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id.' It uses specific verbs and resources, and distinguishes 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 mentions a prerequisite (Pipeworx OAuth account) and provides examples of use cases, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives. The context of siblings makes it clear, but explicit direction is missing.

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 readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds value by explaining that the call returns category-bucketed example questions with exact tool+argument shapes, drawn from a live catalog. No contradictions 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 front-loaded with common user questions and clearly structured. It's somewhat long but every sentence adds value—synonyms, use case, return format, parameter guidance. Could be slightly more concise, but 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?

For a tool with one optional parameter, the description is fully complete. It explains the return format (category-bucketed examples with tool+argument shapes), the use case, and parameter effect. No output schema exists, but the description adequately covers what the agent needs to know.

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 the optional topic parameter described. The description adds meaning by listing example values ('finance', 'pharma', 'betting') and explaining that omitting it gives a cross-category spread. 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 clearly states the tool's purpose as the onboarding entry point for an agent to learn what questions to ask Pipeworx. It uses multiple synonyms and explicitly says it returns category-bucketed example questions with tool call shapes, distinguishing it from sibling tools like discover_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?

The description explicitly says 'Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you' and explains how to use the optional topic parameter. It could be stronger by also stating when not to use it (e.g., if you already know what to ask), but the guidance is clear and actionable.

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 that the row is deactivated, not deleted, and that historical events remain available via recent_alerts. This adds valuable context beyond annotations, which already indicate non-destructiveness and idempotency.

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 sentences, no waste. Each sentence carries essential information: the action, ownership constraint, and behavioral side effect.

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 param, no output schema, clear annotations), the description fully covers purpose, constraints, and side effects. No gaps remain.

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?

Only one parameter 'id' with schema description covering its origin ('returned by subscribe'). The description reinforces this origin, adding value beyond the schema, though schema coverage is already 100%.

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 action 'Cancel a subscription by id' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'subscribe' and 'list_subscriptions' by focusing on cancellation.

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 mentions ownership enforcement, guiding users that they can only cancel their own subscriptions. Provides clear context but does not explicitly state when not to use or list alternatives, though implied by sibling names.

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 readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint. Description adds details: returns verdict types, structured form, actual value with citation, percent delta, and replaces multiple calls. 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 thorough but front-loaded with examples and usage. Could trim some redundancy, but each sentence serves a purpose. Well-structured.

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 tool complexity (one param, no output schema), description covers purpose, usage, scope, output format, and context of replacing multiple calls. Complete for agent selection.

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% with example. Description adds domain-specific examples and explains the natural-language nature. Adds value beyond 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?

Description specifies verb 'verify claims', resource 'authoritative sources', and domain 'company-financial claims'. Includes trigger phrases and distinguishes from general search. Sibling tools like 'deep_research' are different.

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 'Use whenever the agent needs to check... factual correctness' and lists trigger phrases. Does not mention when not to use or alternatives, but usage context is clear.

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