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

Annotations indicate destructiveHint=true, so the agent knows it is a state-changing operation. The description adds the semantic that enabling makes the product sellable, but it does not disclose idempotency, permissions, or side effects. This is minimal added value beyond the annotation.

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?

The description is two short sentences, front-loaded with the action and purpose, and includes the exact REST call. No wasted words.

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 tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description conveys the purpose, the endpoint, and the effect. It is sufficient for an agent to select and invoke it, though it does not detail return values or edge cases.

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 schema already documents the single required 'id' parameter with 100% coverage. The description does not add further meaning beyond noting the endpoint uses the product id, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 clearly states the tool enables or publishes a product for sale, with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like disable_product and enable_license by specifying the product context and providing the REST endpoint.

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?

The phrase 'so it can be sold' provides clear context for when to use the tool—publishing a product. However, it does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it, such as contrasting with disable_product.

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