Given the simple 2-parameter tool and presence of an output schema, the description is minimally adequate but omits details like pagination or behavior on no results.

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 adds little meaning beyond the schema: it mentions 'object name' but does not explain input formats or valid catalog IDs. With 50% schema coverage, the description should compensate but fails to do so.

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 'Query' and resource 'object name', and mentions the resolution via SIMBAD/NED. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'resolve_entity' or 'catalogs'.

The description explicitly states it is useful for competitive AI-marketing audits and gives an example query. It implies use when comparing multiple entities, but does not explicitly mention when not to use or list alternatives like calling ai_visibility_check multiple times.

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 (readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true), the description adds valuable behavioral details: partial failures degrade gracefully, bundlephobia first measurement may take 5-30s, sources_failed lists timeouts.

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?

Single, well-structured sentence front-loads purpose, then enumerates output, ecosystem scope, and fallback behavior. No redundancy, every clause earns its place.

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 2-parameter, no-output-schema tool, the description fully explains output fields, behavior on partial failures, ecosystem limitations, and typical use cases. Complete and actionable.

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 good descriptions. The description adds extra context: scoped packages accepted and default to latest version when omitted. 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?

The description clearly states the composite check for adding an npm package, with specific verb 'scan' and resource 'dependency'. It distinguishes from siblings by being a one-call composite across deps.dev and bundlephobia.

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 whenever an agent asks is X safe / popular / small or what does adding lodash cost me.' Also notes NPM-only in v1 and points to deps.dev:version for other ecosystems.

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 (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, etc.) by disclosing the embedding model (BGE-base-en), windowing (overlapping 500-char windows), character cap (200K chars with truncation flagging), and return format (offsets, similarity scores). 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 two substantive sentences plus a concise technical note. Every sentence is essential, front-loaded with the core action, and there is no redundant or filler content.

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 no output schema, the description adequately explains input details, behavior (embeddings, windowing, truncation), and return fields (passages with offsets and scores). It does not detail the exact JSON response structure, but the context is sufficient for selection and 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?

Schema coverage is 100%, and the description adds value by specifying the limit's range (1-20) and default (5), and by providing natural-language query examples. The schema already describes each parameter well, but the description enhances clarity.

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' and provides concrete examples (SEC 10-K, article, tool result). It contrasts with siblings by mentioning it pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded, distinguishing its purpose effectively.

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 when to use this tool: 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and explains how it saves context and returns relevant passages. It also suggests pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded, providing clear guidance on 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 idempotent, not read-only, not destructive. Description adds rich behavioral context: return value, delivery channel mechanics, SMS verification and cap, webhook auto-disable. 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?

Dense and well-structured, starting with purpose then requirements, examples, and delivery options. Every sentence adds value, though slightly lengthy; could be streamlined with bullet points but remains clear.

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 all key aspects: types, params, delivery, limitations, return value. No output schema, but description states returns subscription id, which is sufficient. Minor gap: no explicit response structure beyond id.

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 has 100% coverage, but description provides extensive additional meaning: type-specific examples, delivery channel formats, constraints, and requirements (e.g., verified phone). Adds significant 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 clearly states 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id.' It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe by focusing on creation and providing specific resource details.

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 notes OAuth requirement, delivery channels, and rate limits. Implies when to use (for live event monitoring) but lacks explicit comparison to alternatives. Nonetheless, context is clear enough.

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 and non-destructive. Description adds that it returns category-bucketed examples with tool+argument shapes, drawn from a live catalog. 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 front-loaded examples and clear sections, but somewhat verbose with many example queries. Could be more concise.

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 1-param tool with no output schema, the description fully explains purpose, usage, and return type. No missing critical info.

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 covers the parameter well (100% coverage). Description reinforces that omitting topic gives full spread and lists possible values, adding 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?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: to suggest example questions for Pipeworx, especially for onboarding. It lists categories and distinguishes from sibling 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?

Explicitly says 'Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do' and explains when to pass a topic vs. omit. Provides clear guidance on 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?

Adds significant behavioral context beyond annotations: ownership enforcement (only own subscriptions), soft deactivation (row not deleted), and linkage to recent_alerts for historical events. Annotations already indicate idempotent and non-destructive; description complements 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?

Two sentences, no redundant words. Action is first word. Every sentence adds value: effect, ownership, and impact on historical data.

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 mutation with one required parameter and no output schema, description covers action, constraints, and side effects. No missing information needed for 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?

Parameter 'id' has clear schema description (uuid from subscribe). Schema coverage is 100%. Description does not add additional semantics beyond referencing 'id', so 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?

Clear verb 'cancel' with specific resource 'subscription by id'. Distinguishes from 'subscribe' (create) and 'list_subscriptions' (list). Ownership enforcement and deactivation-not-deletion are stated, making purpose unambiguous.

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?

Implied usage: cancel your own subscriptions. Ownership enforcement is explicitly stated. Does not explicitly list alternatives or when-not-to-use, but context from sibling tools and description of historical events via recent_alerts provides 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, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description adds details on the dual pipeline (SEC EDGAR for financial claims, grounded pipeline for others), return value components (verdict, actual value with citation, reasoning), and the tolerance mechanism. 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 somewhat verbose, including multiple examples and explanatory phrases. It could be tightened without losing critical information. However, the structure is logical, starting with trigger phrases and then detailing behavior.

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 and lack of output schema, the description comprehensively covers purpose, triggering patterns, domain-specific behavior, return values, and efficiency gains. It leaves no significant gaps for correct 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?

Input schema has 100% description coverage for both parameters (claim and tolerance_pct). Description adds context by explaining the default tolerance behavior and how tolerance_pct overrides the implied tolerance, which is not in 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?

Description uses specific verbs ('validate', 'fact check', 'verify') and clearly identifies the resource ('natural-language claim verification against authoritative sources'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by noting it replaces 4–6 sequential calls and has a specialized fast path for company-financial claims.

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: 'Use whenever the agent needs to check whether something a user said is factually correct.' It also describes sub-cases (company-financial vs. other claims). However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use (e.g., subjective claims or non-factual questions).

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