B3.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are supplied, so the description carries the full burden, and it discloses almost nothing beyond the read verb. It does not state error behavior for an unknown URL, whether unresolved/redirected URLs are followed, or any rate/access constraints; 'complete data' is the only behavioral hint.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

A single, front-loaded sentence with the verb, resource, and retrieval key in order and no filler. Nothing could be removed without losing information.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a one-parameter read tool with full schema coverage and an existing output schema, the description covers what is needed to invoke it correctly. The remaining gap is purely behavioral (failure modes, URL handling), which is minor given the tool's simplicity.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100% and the single 'url' parameter is already documented as 'Full URL of the entity'. The phrase 'by URL' reinforces that the entity is identified by its canonical URL, but adds no format or validation detail beyond the schema, so baseline 3 applies.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('schema.org entity data') with the retrieval key ('by URL'), so an agent immediately knows this is a direct fetch of a single entity. It does not, however, contrast itself against siblings like find_by_type or fuzzy_find_and_traverse, which is the only thing keeping it from a 5.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied: 'by URL' signals the caller must already possess the entity's URL, which implicitly separates it from the search/discovery siblings. There is no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or named alternative, so it stays at implied guidance.

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