A3.6/5.0
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 safety profile is covered by structured data. The description adds nothing beyond 'returns a detail payload' - no note on whether unknown ids error or return empty, no rate-limit or auth context. With annotations carrying the safety burden, 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?

One short sentence with the resource and the input requirement front-loaded 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?

An output schema exists, so the description need not explain the returned payload, and a one-param read tool has little surface area to document. It is complete enough to call correctly, with the only minor gap being the absence of any routing hint against its many tiktok_* siblings.

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 the single 'id' parameter is documented as 'TikTok video id.', so the schema does all the work. The description merely echoes the id requirement without adding format, source, or accepted-id-shape detail. 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 names a specific verb (returns) and resource (TikTok video detail payload) and pins the input to a video id, so an agent understands this is a single-video lookup. It stops short of explicitly contrasting itself with the plural sibling tiktok_posts, so sibling differentiation is only implied by the singular 'video id' framing.

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: the phrase 'for a video id' signals the prerequisite (you must already have an id), which rules out using it for discovery. There is no explicit statement of when to use this versus tiktok_posts, tiktok_search, or tiktok_explore, and no exclusions.

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