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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds only the raw endpoint path, with no note about error behavior for missing ids, permissions, or whether related records are included.

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 terse fragments, front-loaded with the essential fact and the endpoint. Nothing extraneous, though the telegraphic style leaves no room for any clarifying detail.

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?

Single-param read tool with annotations covering safety, but there is no output schema and the description says nothing about what a task object contains or what happens when the id does not exist. For a fetch-by-id tool that gap matters to an agent planning the 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 100% and task_id is fully documented as an integer id, so the baseline is 3. The description's 'by id' restates the schema without adding format, sourcing, or validation detail.

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?

'One task by id' plus the GET endpoint states a specific verb and resource, so the retrieval intent is clear. However, it does not distinguish itself from freshsales_list_tasks or freshsales_get_appointment/deal siblings; the agent must infer that 'by id' means a single record versus the list variant.

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?

No guidance on when to call this versus freshsales_list_tasks or when a task id is already known. The agent must infer that this requires a previously obtained task_id.

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