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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, covering safety. The description adds that it returns features, pricing, platforms, and integration details, but does not disclose additional behavioral aspects such as data source or response format. Given the annotation coverage, this is adequate but not rich.

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, with two sentences plus a compact trigger list. The trigger list adds actionable context without repetition, though it could be considered slightly redundant with the purpose statement.

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 read-only info retrieval tool with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description is mostly complete: it states what is returned and provides example triggers. It does not exhaustively describe the return structure, but the listed categories (features, pricing, platforms, integrations) give sufficient 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?

The input schema fully documents the single 'section' parameter with an enum and description, achieving 100% schema coverage. The tool description does not add parameter-specific guidance, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 'Get comprehensive information about the SAVOR Dish platform' and enumerates specific content areas (features, pricing, platforms, Instacart integration). This distinguishes it from sibling tools focused on recipes, nutrition, and shopping.

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 includes explicit TRIGGERS listing user query examples like 'what is SAVOR Dish' and 'pricing plans', providing clear context for when to invoke this tool. It does not mention when not to use it or name alternatives, but the triggers are specific enough for an agent to match user intent.

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