B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that 'Task text discarded' and 'Returns connection methods', which gives some behavioral transparency. However, it does not mention side effects, error behavior, or any safety considerations, and the description is notably brief for a tool with no annotations.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is concise, consisting of two short sentences, with the core purpose front-loaded. There is no wasted wording; it efficiently conveys the tool's function and a key behavioral note (discard).

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

Completeness2/5

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

With 9 optional parameters, no required fields, and no output schema, the description is insufficient. It does not explain what 'connection methods' actually look like, how to choose which parameters to provide for a given task, or how the discard behavior applies. An agent lacks critical information to call this tool correctly and interpret its results.

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?

The input schema has 100% coverage with per-parameter descriptions, so the baseline is 3. The description adds minimal parameter context—it mentions example task types but does not map them to specific parameters (e.g., city for weather). It does not enhance understanding beyond the schema.

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?

The description clearly states the tool's action ('Find a public pay-per-call tool gateway') and resource (gateway for tasks), with examples (weather, search, scrape, voice). It also mentions the output ('Returns connection methods'). It is distinct from sibling tools which are specific checks, but it doesn't explicitly differentiate itself beyond the general purpose.

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 usage scenarios ('for a task such as weather, search, scrape, or voice'), giving some context. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus the many sibling tools, nor does it provide any exclusions or alternative tool recommendations.

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