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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds the tenant restriction to Kooga's views, which is useful context not in the annotations, but says nothing about what the response looks like beyond a field list or what happens when the id is unknown.

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

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

Two short sentences with the restriction front-loaded and no filler. The only inefficiency is that the second sentence largely restates the title verbatim rather than adding new information.

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

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

With no output schema, the description does list the returned fields, which is the right move. But for a tool whose input is undocumented and whose central concept ('view') is undefined, the definition leaves an agent unable to confidently construct a call.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0% for the single workspaceId parameter, so the description must compensate and does not. It never mentions workspaceId, its format, or whether it is a workspace id or a view id, despite the tool name implying a view identifier. This is the definition's weakest point.

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

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

The description names the resource (the workspace a view is about) and enumerates the returned fields (name, link, currency, brand, competitors), which is more than a restatement of the name. However, 'view' is never defined, and the tool is named readViewContext while its only parameter is workspaceId, leaving the agent unsure whether it is reading a view or a workspace. The purpose is inferable but not crisp.

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

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

'For Kooga's views only, of no use to call otherwise' gives an explicit when-not-to-use condition, which is real guidance. But it names no alternative for the general case, even though siblings like listWorkspaces and readStoreOverview exist, so the agent is left to guess the substitute.

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