B3.1/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'Task text discarded' but does not clarify what task text or which parameter it refers to, nor does it disclose side effects, access requirements, or rate limits. The tool appears to return artifacts but gives no details on reversibility or external calls.

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 and front-loaded with the core purpose and outputs. The final 'Task text discarded' is ambiguous and undermines clarity, but overall the structure is efficient. It earns a 4 for brevity despite the confusing last clause.

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?

The tool has 9 optional parameters but the description gives no guidance on when to supply them or what they are for. It lists return artifacts but does not explain how they relate to the inputs. With no output schema, the description should provide more context to enable correct invocation, and it falls short.

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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no meaning about the nine parameters; it does not explain how they are used or which are relevant. The confusing 'Task text discarded' does not map to any parameter. The description provides no additional semantics beyond the schema.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the action ('Find'), the specific resource ('a public pay-per-call tool gateway (Monid)'), and the expected outputs ('CLI setup, how-it-works, skill file, and remote MCP hops'). This distinguishes it from the many sibling utility tools, which are unrelated.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention any exclusions, prerequisites, or comparison with sibling tools. An agent would not know when this is the appropriate choice over, say, web-fetch or normalize-url.

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