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

With no annotations, the description carries some burden. It does disclose that task text is discarded and lists the outputs, which gives a basic behavioral picture. However, it does not mention that all parameters are effectively ignored after shape checks, whether the operation is purely read-only, or if any network/remote hops have side effects.

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 very concise: two sentences, front-loaded with the primary purpose, and no filler. Every phrase contributes value, and the 'task text discarded' note is placed as a useful caveat.

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 nine optional parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description doesn't say what arguments, if any, should actually be passed, or why so many unrelated parameters exist. It also doesn't explain the structure of the returned CLI setup or MCP hops, leaving the agent under-informed for invocation and handling 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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline applies. The description itself adds no parameter-specific meaning and does not explain how the nine optional parameters relate to the tool's primary function, but the schema already documents each parameter individually.

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 names the resource (Monid), states the verb 'Find', and lists specific return contents (CLI setup, how-it-works, skill file, remote MCP hops). It is distinctive against the sibling tool list, though it does not explicitly contrast itself with any sibling, so it stops short of a 5.

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?

There is no stated when-to-use, prerequisites, or alternatives. The agent must infer that this tool is for locating Monid, but nothing explains when it should be preferred over related lookup or fetch tools, nor whether it is appropriate only in a specific workflow.

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