Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already tell the agent this is a non-read-only, non-destructive write, so the safety profile is covered without the description. Beyond that, the description adds only the HTTP route ('POST /api/v2/bot/signal/cex'), which gives no insight into side effects, whether the bot starts running immediately, authentication requirements, or default settings applied on creation.
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, front-loaded statements with no padding, and the purpose leads ahead of the route detail. The endpoint string is slightly redundant metadata, but it costs little and takes no reading effort.
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?
For a creation tool taking a nested body of ten-plus fields with no output schema and no annotations beyond the write hint, the description is too thin. It does not say what a caller must supply, what happens on success, whether the bot is enabled on creation, or how it relates to the webhook/api resources it references.
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?
The description mentions no parameters at all. Top-level schema description coverage is 0% (the required 'body' object carries no description), and while the nested properties are individually documented in the schema, the description contributes nothing about the required payload fields (webhook_id, api_id, symbol, amount_from_signal) or how they interact, e.g. amount vs amount_from_signal.
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?
States a specific verb and resource ('Create a new CEX signal bot'), which is enough to distinguish it from the DEX and prediction siblings on resource grounds. It stops short of explicitly naming those alternatives (post_bot_signal_dex, post_bot_signal_prediction, post_bot_signal_cex_duplicate), so an agent must infer the distinction from the name alone.
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?
There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus the sibling create tools (dex/prediction variants) or versus cloning an existing bot. No prerequisites are stated either, such as needing a valid webhook_id and api_id before calling.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
