TDQS

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 agent knows this is a safe public read. The description adds that it fetches 'public' content from a 'canonical' URL, which is useful framing, but says nothing about rate limits, failure modes, or whether paywalled content is returned. With annotations covering the safety profile, 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 clauses, zero waste: the fetch action is front-loaded, and the alternative routing follows immediately. Every sentence earns its place.

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?

Complete for a single-parameter article-fetch tool. An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, and the annotations carry the safety profile. The description covers purpose, scope, and sibling routing sufficiently.

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 schema already documents the single 'url' parameter as a 'Canonical Tom's Hardware article URL'. The description repeats this same constraint without adding syntax, format, or canonicalization rules. 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 (Fetch) and resource (Tom's Hardware article metadata and body paragraphs) with clear scope, and names the siblings it is not for related tasks. An agent can distinguish it from tomshardware_headlines and tomshardware_sections immediately.

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 routes to alternatives: 'Use tomshardware_headlines for story lists or tomshardware_sections to browse sections.' This tells the agent both when to use this tool and what to use instead for adjacent needs.

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