Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It only enumerates what data is returned, omitting critical disclosure: whether the call is read-only (safe to retry), any required permissions, whether it can be expensive, or how missing accounts are handled. A read-only lookup should at least hint at safety, but that is absent.
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?
A single, front-loaded sentence that packs all necessary information without waste. It is appropriately sized for a one-parameter lookup tool and gets straight to the point.
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?
Given no annotations, no output schema, and a read-only operation, the description is insufficient. It does not cover error behavior, permissions, or any operational context. For a tool that fetches possibly sensitive account-level configuration, completeness is lacking.
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?
Schema description coverage is 100%; the single parameter account_code is fully documented in the schema with examples ('bcp', 'jchsoft'). The description repeats the parameter name but adds no syntax, format, or validation detail beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate.
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?
States a clear verb+resource: retrieves account workspace details for a given account code. The description enumerates the specific sub-resources returned (attributes, users, projects, companies), which distinguishes it from unrelated siblings. But it doesn't explicitly contrast with siblings like GetProjectTool or GetCurrentUserTool, falling short of a 5.
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 description implies usage by stating it takes an account code, but there is no explicit when-to-use/when-not guidance or named alternatives. Siblings like GetProjectTool exist, and an agent might confuse this tool with project-level lookups, but the description offers no routing help.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
