target_questions

Read-only

List paginated question-and-answer records for a known Target TCIN. Use target_product for item details or target_reviews for customer opinions about the same item.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safe, open-world read profile is covered. The description adds only that results are paginated, which the schema also conveys via page/per_page; it does not add rate limits, ordering, or auth context. With annotations carrying the safety story, a 3 is appropriate.

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 sentences, zero waste. The tool's own purpose is front-loaded ahead of the sibling routing, which is exactly the right ordering for an agent scanning for a match.

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?

A read-only list tool with three fully documented params, an output schema handling return values, and annotations covering the safety profile. Purpose, scope, and sibling alternatives are all present; nothing an agent needs to call it correctly is 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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents tcin, page, and per_page with defaults and ranges. The description mentions pagination but adds no format or semantics beyond what the schema states. Baseline 3 is correct when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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?

States a specific verb (List), resource (question-and-answer records), and scope (for a known Target TCIN). An agent can tell this apart from target_product and target_reviews without inspecting either schema.

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?

Explicitly names the two alternatives and the condition that selects each: target_product for item details, target_reviews for customer opinions on the same item. Routing is fully specified rather than left to inference.

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