Read-only

Return the official installation method(s), config example, package info, transports, auth requirements and source references for a resource. Never fabricates commands — if nothing is recorded, it says so and points to the official docs.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already signal read-only, non-destructive, and open-world behavior. The description adds meaningful behavioral guarantees beyond those annotations: it never fabricates commands and, when nothing is recorded, explicitly says so and points to official docs. This is valuable anti-hallucination context.

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 with no wasted words. The first sentence front-loads the full expected return contents, and the second adds the important no-fabrication behavior. Both sentences earn their 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?

With only 2 parameters, a 100%-covered schema, an output schema present, and read-only/non-destructive annotations, the description plus structured data fully equips an agent to select and invoke the tool correctly. The anti-fabrication guarantee closes the main real-world risk.

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%: the schema already documents 'resource' as a slug/id and 'client' as a client-specific target. The description does not add extra parameter-level detail beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 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 ('Return') and names the exact resource and payload categories: installation method(s), config example, package info, transports, auth requirements, and source references. This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like get_resource and search_resources by focusing specifically on installation instructions.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description makes clear when the tool is appropriate: when an agent needs official installation instructions or related configuration/auth details for a resource. It does not name an explicit alternative or exclusion, so it misses full 5-level guidance, but the context is unambiguous.

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