TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is clear. The description adds value by listing evaluation criteria (business value, trust/control risk, etc.), but does not disclose additional behavioral traits beyond what annotations provide.

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?

The description is a single, tight sentence that front-loads the verb and resource. Every phrase earns its place by specifying what the tool evaluates, with no wasted words.

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?

Given the tool has 7 parameters (all optional) and an output schema exists, the description is reasonably complete. It covers the core purpose without needing to explain return values. A slight deduction for not mentioning the output's role (e.g., that it returns an assessment report), but not required.

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% with all 7 parameters documented in the input schema. The description does not add parameter-specific details beyond the schema's own descriptions. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema carries the semantic load.

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 uses a specific verb ('Evaluates') and clearly identifies the resource ('candidate AI workflow ideas'). It enumerates the evaluation dimensions (business value, implementation readiness, etc.), which distinctively positions it from sibling tools that focus on narrower aspects like 'analyze_business_context' or 'assess_trust_control_risks'.

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 when candidate ideas need evaluation, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to use 'assess_trust_control_risks' instead). No 'when not' guidance or exclusion criteria are provided, leaving the agent to infer context.

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