A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish read-only and open-world behavior, so the description need not repeat safety details. It adds useful domain context by stating that exactly seven Teams-tab sort choices are returned and that teams are current for the selected edition, though it does not elaborate on pagination or response shape beyond what the output schema covers.

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?

Two compact sentences: the first states what is returned, and the second states how to use the outputs. The scoping phrase "for one edition" is front-loaded, and there is no redundant or filler text.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For an options-discovery tool, the description is complete: it identifies the returned data, explains how each category of option is used downstream, and the schema/output schema/annotations cover parameter details and safety. No critical calling information appears to be missing.

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 coverage is 100%, and both year and tournament are fully documented with valid values and defaults. The description only implies edition selection via the phrase "for one edition" and does not add syntax or selection guidance beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description uses a specific verb, "Lists," and clearly identifies the resource: auction team IDs/names plus all seven Teams-tab sort choices for one edition. It is readily distinguishable from sibling tools such as cricbuzz_auction_team and cricbuzz_auction_teams.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

It explicitly routes the agent: use returned team_id values with cricbuzz_auction_team and sort labels with cricbuzz_auction_teams. This gives concrete downstream usage for both categories of returned options, leaving little ambiguity about when to call this versus the related tools.

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