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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent behavior. The description adds valuable context: default model, free vs paid Anthropic requirement, and return structure (score, confidence, signals, raw_response).

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 efficiently concise (4 sentences), front-loaded with the main action, and every sentence provides essential information. 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 no output schema, the description adequately covers parameters, return behavior, and use cases. It could mention potential rate limits or cost implications for Anthropic calls, but the existing information is sufficient.

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%, but the description adds meaning: explains default model, free usage, how context helps disambiguation, and that _apiKey is needed for Anthropic. This aids agent in parameter 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 probes LLMs for brand visibility and scores it 0-100 per model, specifying verb 'probe' and resource 'LLMs'. It distinguishes from siblings like 'scan_competitor_ai_presence' by focusing on general visibility scoring.

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 provides clear use cases (AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, competitive monitoring) and explains default vs paid models. However, it doesn't explicitly compare with sibling tools or state 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?

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds no extra behavioral context beyond the phrase 'Single article.'

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 extremely concise but critically under-specified. A single phrase does not suffice for a tool with parameters and an output schema; it omits essential details.

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 output schema and two parameters, the description is inadequate. It fails to provide any functional context, relying entirely on the name and annotations.

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 0%, meaning no parameter descriptions. The description does not explain the 'id' or 'version' parameters, so it adds no 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 'Single article.' is vague and lacks a verb, making it unclear that the tool retrieves an article. The name and readOnlyHint imply read access, but the purpose is not explicitly stated.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus siblings like 'articles' (which likely lists articles) or other related tools. There is no mention of context or 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 readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and not destructive. The description adds no behavioral context beyond that. It does not state what kind of file data is returned, whether it requires authentication, or any other behavioral traits.

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 extremely short but fails to be informative. While conciseness is valued, this is under-specification. It does not earn its length as it provides almost no useful 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 the tool has 2 parameters and an output schema, the description should at least indicate what the tool returns (e.g., list of files, metadata). It is incomplete and does not help an agent understand the tool's capabilities.

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%, and the description does not explain the parameters 'id' or 'version'. It is unclear what these parameters represent (e.g., article ID? file version?). The description adds no meaning 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 'Files in an article.' is vague and almost tautological. It does not specify whether the tool lists, uploads, downloads, or manages files. The purpose is unclear.

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?

No usage guidelines are provided. The description does not mention when to use this tool instead of siblings like 'article' or 'articles', nor does it give any context about prerequisites or scenarios.

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 declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint as false. The description adds behavioral context about the output (returns article metadata + DOI, authors, license, download URL) and notes the tool is 'authoritative', which is not covered by annotations. 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 concise, front-loading key information in the first sentence, and every sentence earns its place. 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 the tool has 5 parameters and an output schema, the description covers what the tool does, when to use it, and what it returns. It does not detail all parameters but the output schema handles return values. Overall adequate.

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 40%, meaning the description should compensate. However, it does not describe individual parameters beyond what the schema already provides. The description adds value by explaining the tool's purpose but not the parameters specifically. Baseline 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?

The description uses specific verbs ('search') and identifies the resource ('figshare'), clearly distinguishing from siblings like 'web search' and PubMed/arXiv. It also lists what it returns (metadata, DOI, etc.).

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 states when to use this tool over alternatives ('PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for academic supplementary materials...') and gives example use cases like 'find datasets about X', providing clear context.

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 are all true or false. The description adds context about the tool routing to other tools, filling arguments, and returning structured answers with pipeworx:// citation URIs, which is beyond what annotations provide.

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 the key preference over web search and includes a clear list of domains and examples. It is somewhat lengthy due to the enumeration of domains, but each sentence adds value. The structure is logical, starting with preference, then functionality, then usage examples.

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 routing to 3,668 tools, the description adequately covers what the tool does, when to use it, and what output to expect (structured answer with citation URIs). No output schema is provided, but the description compensates by mentioning the stable citation URIs. The tool's behavior is sufficiently described for an agent to invoke it 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 description coverage is 100% as every alias for the 'question' parameter is described as 'Alias for question.' The description does not add additional semantics beyond the schema's documentation, so a 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?

The description clearly states the tool routes natural language questions to over 3,668 tools across 860 verified sources, acting as a universal query interface for factual data. It explicitly lists domains like SEC filings, FDA drug data, and economic statistics, making the purpose highly specific and distinct from siblings like ask_pipeworx_grounded or web search.

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 prefers this tool over web search for factual questions and provides concrete examples of when to use it (e.g., 'current US unemployment rate'). However, it does not directly differentiate from the sibling ask_pipeworx_grounded, which could be a closely related 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?

Annotations include readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint. The description adds key behavioral details: extraction only from tool results, refusal reasons (not_in_source, no_tool_match, etc.), and that it costs one extra LLM call. 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 relatively long but well-structured, front-loading the purpose. Each sentence adds value (process, return format, usage guidance, trade-off). Minor redundancy could be trimmed, but overall efficient.

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 (routing, extraction, refusal handling) and no output schema, the description provides the return format in detail. It references 'ask_pipeworx' for routing. Complete enough for an agent to understand behavior without missing critical context.

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 aliases for 'question' documented. The description does not add new parameter semantics beyond the schema; it focuses on tool behavior. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states it is a hallucination-resistant answer mode for high-stakes reads, explaining the routing process and output structure. It distinguishes itself from the sibling tool 'ask_pipeworx' by emphasizing grounded extraction and refusal behaviors.

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 guidance: use when answers will be quoted/cited/acted on and facts must not be invented (financial, legal, medical, public statements). Also advises preferring 'ask_pipeworx' for casual lookups due to extra cost.

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 extensively details behavioral aspects beyond annotations: resolver contract with match confidence and alternatives, parent_event extractor for partitioned markets, news fallback with error fields, safety short-circuit for low-confidence matches, handling of closed markets, and illiquidity notes. This far exceeds what the readOnlyHint and idempotentHint annotations provide.

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 clear sections (classifiers, fan-out examples, response shape, resolver contract, etc.) and is front-loaded with the core purpose. It is lengthy but justified given the tool's complexity; nearly every sentence adds value. Minor redundancy in the safety/closed market explanation could be tightened.

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 comprehensively documents the response structure (result.market, result.analysis, result.evidence, result.market_match_confidence, etc.), error cases, fallback behavior, and security measures. For a tool of this complexity, the description is remarkably complete and leaves little ambiguity.

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 significant meaning: it explains the depth parameter's quick vs thorough modes, the include_raw parameter's impact on response size, and the various formats accepted by the market parameter. This goes well beyond the schema's property 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 the tool's purpose: research Polymarket bets by pulling Pipeworx data. It specifies the exact input types (slug, URL, question text) and outputs (evidence packet + market-vs-model comparison). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like polymarket_arbitrage and polymarket_edges by focusing on research and evidence gathering, not on arbitrage or edge calculation.

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 mentions when to use the tool: for queries like 'should I bet on X', 'what does the data say about Y', or 'is there edge in Z'. It provides examples of when specific data packs are fanned out. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or directly address alternatives among sibling tools, though the purpose is clear enough to infer appropriate usage.

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. The description adds the structural note '(parent → leaves)' but does not elaborate on behavior beyond what annotations cover.

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline 3. Description adds practical constraints: max ~200K chars for text, limit range 1-20 default 5, query examples. These provide useful context 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 clearly states it performs semantic search inside a fetched record, gives concrete examples (SEC 10-K, article, tool result), and explains the output (passages with offsets and scores). It also distinguishes from sibling ask_pipeworx_grounded.

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 when to use: 'when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded. Does not explicitly state when not to use, but 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?

All annotations are consistent with the description. The description adds significant behavioral context beyond annotations, such as account requirements, delivery channel constraints (SMS cap, webhook auto-disable), and the fact that it returns a subscription ID.

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 and front-loads the purpose. It is informative without being overly verbose, though a slight reduction in length could improve conciseness.

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 all necessary context: account requirement, types with examples, delivery channels including constraints, return value (subscription ID), and notes on verification for SMS. No output schema exists, but the description adequately explains the outcome.

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 substantial meaning by explaining the type-specific parameters with examples (e.g., sec_8k items, polymarket_edge topic, fred_series series_id) and detailing delivery channel options with constraints.

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 uses a specific verb 'Create' and resource 'proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream', making the tool's purpose clear. It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'unsubscribe' 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?

The description provides clear context on when to use this tool, including the requirement of a Pipeworx OAuth account and examples of supported types. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or compare with 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?

Discloses that the tool is read-only (consistent with readOnlyHint), describes the return format (category-bucketed example questions with tool+argument shape), and notes it draws from a live catalog, adding value 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 comprehensive but slightly verbose; however, it is front-loaded with common user intents and efficiently conveys 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 no output schema, the description adequately explains what is returned and the exact tool+argument shape, making it complete for a tool of this complexity.

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 schema provides 100% coverage with a description for 'topic', and the description adds practical context: omitting for full spread and listing possible values.

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 as an onboarding entry point that returns category-bucketed example questions, distinguishing it from sibling meta-tools like ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, etc.

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 advises to use this tool FIRST when unsure about Pipeworx's capabilities, and provides guidance on calling with no arguments for full spread or with a topic to focus.

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 critical behavioral details—ownership enforcement and row deactivation (not deletion)—that go beyond annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint). No 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?

Two concise sentences that front-load the core action and provide necessary context without any 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?

Fully covers purpose, ownership constraint, and behavioral effect for a simple one-parameter tool with no output schema.

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 description for the single 'id' parameter. The tool description does not add extra meaning 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?

Explicitly states 'Cancel a subscription by id', specifying the action (cancel) and resource (subscription), and distinguishes from siblings 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?

Clearly states ownership enforcement ('you can only cancel your own subscriptions') and explains the deactivation behavior, though no explicit alternative tool is named.

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 not destructive. The description adds significant behavioral context: it explains the return types (verdict, structured form, actual value with citation, percent delta), the data source (SEC EDGAR + XBRL), and the supported claim types. 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 informative but slightly verbose. It front-loads key examples and usage patterns, and every sentence adds value. However, it could be 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 only one parameter with full schema coverage, rich annotations, and no output schema, the description provides complete context: what the tool does, when to use it, its domain limitations, and the structure of its return values. Nothing essential is missing.

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 input schema already has a high description coverage (100%) for the single 'claim' parameter, including example query strings. The description does not add additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, so a 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?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: claim verification via natural-language queries. It uses specific verbs like 'confirm or refute' and lists example queries. It also distinguishes from siblings by noting it replaces 4–6 sequential calls, showing a unique value proposition.

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 when to use the tool ('whenever the agent needs to check whether something a user said is factually correct') and specifies its domain (company-financial claims for US public companies). It mentions that it replaces multiple calls, giving context, but doesn't explicitly exclude alternative tools like compare_entities or resolve_entity.

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