Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. It implies a read-only operation through 'Details' and enumerates the returned fields, but it does not explicitly state that no state changes occur, nor mention error cases or access requirements. For a simple getter this is a moderate but not severe gap.
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 a single sentence that front-loads the resource and then lists the relevant fields. There is no filler or redundant wording.
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 one-parameter getter with no output schema, the description provides enough context about what is returned and makes the resource clear. Minor omissions like error behavior or auth requirements are not critical for this low-complexity read operation.
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 fully describes the single parameter ('chat': 'Chat JID.'), so the description adds no extra parameter semantics. With 100% schema description coverage, the baseline of 3 applies.
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 identifies the resource ('a single chat') and the kind of data returned (name, kind, unread count, mute and pin state). It does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools like list_chats or get_group, but 'single chat' communicates the scope well.
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 'Details of a single chat' implies the tool is for fetching one specific chat rather than listing chats, but there is no explicit guidance on when to choose get_chat over list_chats or get_group, nor any exclusions. This is implied usage rather than stated guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
