TDQS

C2.7/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already establish readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=false, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds a useful access prerequisite ('fresh server-verified access and otherwise refuse'), but 'No writes or access grants' largely restates the annotations, and the refusal behavior is not detailed.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is short and front-loaded with the read operation. The wording is compact, though 'bounded native' is jargon that could be clearer.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Even with an output schema and annotations, the description leaves important gaps for a tool with a nested, undocumented body object and a connection_context parameter. It does not clarify what insight is returned or how the request body should be formed.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is only 33%: customer_id is documented, but the body object is empty and connection_context has only a regex pattern. The description does not explain what body contents are expected or what connection_context represents, so it fails to compensate for the schema gap.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description says it reads a 'bounded native reach_locations insight,' which identifies a read operation and resource area. However, 'bounded native' is unclear, and it does not distinguish this tool from siblings such as google_ads_reach_forecast, google_ads_reach_products, or google_ads_benchmark_locations.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

It states a prerequisite for restricted services but gives no context on when to choose this tool over related reach or benchmark tools. An agent has to infer the use case from the name alone.

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