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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds real value beyond that by disclosing the REST endpoint and the cross-tool dependency on a view id, though it says nothing about the shape or size of the returned view list.

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 sentences, zero filler: the resource definition and example come first, then the actionable dependency and endpoint. Every clause earns its place.

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 zero-parameter, annotation-covered, read-only listing tool this is essentially complete: it says what is listed, gives an example, and explains why the result matters. Only a hint about the return structure (e.g., that each entry carries an id and name) is missing, which is minor given no output schema exists.

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 tool takes zero parameters, so the schema carries no semantics to supplement. The description correctly signals a no-argument listing call and focuses on the returned concept (saved view ids) instead, which is the right emphasis.

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 ('List') and a precisely scoped resource ('saved account (company) views'), reinforced by a concrete example ('My Accounts') and the underlying endpoint GET /sales_accounts/filters. An agent can easily distinguish this from freshsales_list_accounts or freshsales_list_contact_views/deal_views.

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?

Explicitly names the downstream consumer: 'A view id is needed by freshsales_list_accounts', which tells the agent this is a prerequisite/discovery call. It gives clear context but stops short of stating exclusions or the full workflow ordering (e.g., call this only if you intend to filter by view).

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