B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations available, the description carries the behavioral burden. It does disclose that task text is discarded and enumerates the return payload, which is useful. However, it does not explain that the schema parameters themselves are mostly ignored or validated only for shape, which is a significant behavioral gap given how many parameters exist.

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?

Three short sentences that front-load the core purpose, then the outputs, then the critical discard behavior. Every sentence earns its place and there is no wasted text.

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?

There is no output schema and the description's return list is terse. More importantly, with seven loosely-related input parameters and no explanation of what actually drives the 'find' operation, an agent cannot confidently know what to pass. The description is insufficient for a tool with this many inputs and no output schema.

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% since every parameter has its own description, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond the schema, but it also does not need to given the thorough schema descriptions.

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 states a specific verb (Find), a specific resource (a public pay-per-call tool gateway named Monid), and enumerates the returned artifacts (CLI setup, how-it-works, skill file, remote MCP hops). This substantially clarifies the otherwise opaque tool name. However, it does not explicitly distinguish itself from siblings, leaving the agent to infer that Monid is not covered by the other utility tools.

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?

Usage is implied: an agent should call this tool when it needs Monid's CLI setup, how-it-works, skill file, or remote MCP hops. The description gives no explicit when-not-to-use guidance or named alternatives, so the agent must rely on sibling names and context to rule out other tools.

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