  2. First observed

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, closed-world behavior, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful framing that the result set is names from a compiled Irish catalogue rather than clinical guidance, but says nothing about ordering, filtering semantics, or result shape beyond the schema.

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?

Two short sentences with no filler, and the catalogue scope plus the non-clinical caveat are stated up front. Efficient, though the second sentence could be tightened slightly.

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

Completeness4/5

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

With an output schema present the description need not explain return values, and it correctly frames the tool as read-only catalogue navigation. For a zero-required-parameter list tool this is nearly complete; only sibling routing guidance is missing.

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% and each of the three parameters (limit, query, offset) is documented in the schema itself. The description's 'filter names' wording loosely maps to query but adds no syntax, alias-matching, or pagination detail beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline 3 applies.

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 pairs a concrete verb (browse/filter) with a specific resource (blood tests, panels and health checks) and confines it to the compiled Irish catalogue. It does not name or differentiate itself from the siblings (get_listing, match_listings, render_results), 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.

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

It gives one boundary — 'catalogue navigation, not a clinical recommendation' — which tells the agent this is a lookup, not advice. However, it never states when to pick this over get_listing or match_listings, and the usage context is only implied.

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