A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are present, so the description carries the disclosure burden. It usefully states that 'Task text discarded' and that the tool returns a specific set of artifacts. However, it does not state whether the operation is read-only, whether any external calls or costs are involved, or what happens when no gateway is found.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short sentences, front-loaded with the primary purpose followed by return values and a privacy note. No filler or redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description names what is returned and that task text is ignored, which is helpful for a no-required-parameter discovery tool. But with nine optional parameters of unclear relevance and no output schema or failure behavior, an agent is left uncertain what to pass and what success looks like.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-level meaning and does not explain which of the nine optional parameters actually drive the lookup; some schema descriptions (weather hint, validate JSON, file path) seem unrelated to finding a gateway.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb and resource: 'Find a public pay-per-call tool gateway (Monid)' and lists the returned artifacts (CLI setup, how-it-works, skill file, remote MCP hops). This distinguishes it from most sibling checkers, though 'Monid' is unexplained and no direct sibling comparison is made.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies a use case: locating the Monid gateway. However, it provides no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and it does not name alternatives among the many sibling tools.

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