Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and idempotentHint=false, so safety is covered. With no output schema, the description does add some value by sketching the return shape (validator targets plus amounts) and that the result is unrestricted ('all delegations'), but it says nothing about pagination, ordering, or behavior for an address with no delegations.
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?
Two short sentences, front-loaded with the action and resource, with the return summary immediately after. No filler and nothing repeated from the title or schema.
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?
For a one-parameter read tool this is close to sufficient, and it partially compensates for the missing output schema by naming what is returned. However, it omits the denomination of amounts, the validator identifier format, and the empty-result case, leaving a real gap given there is no output schema to fall back on.
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% and the single parameter already documents itself as 'Delegator address (thor1...)'. The description implies the parameter is the delegator but adds no format, validation, or edge-case detail beyond the schema, so baseline 3 applies.
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 specific verb and resource ('Returns all delegations for a delegator address') and the second sentence clarifies the scope of what comes back (validators plus amounts), which helps separate it from balance/reward siblings. It stops short of naming an explicit alternative such as get_cosmos_rewards, so it is clear but not fully differentiated.
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?
There is no guidance on when to reach for this tool versus get_cosmos_rewards, get_cosmos_balances, or get_cosmos_validators, and no note that the input must be a thor1... address in the caller's expected form. The agent must infer usage from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
