C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

The description adds almost no behavioral context beyond the tool's action. It does not disclose whether generating the link sends a notification, persists a record, requires permissions, or what the returned link looks like. The destructiveHint=true annotation suggests side effects, but the description does not explain or justify this, and no contradiction is present because it never claims to be non-destructive.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single focused sentence with no filler, and it front-loads the action and object. It could be more informative, but for what it contains, it is concise and easy to parse.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Although the tool is simple, the complete absence of output schema, return-value details, side-effect disclosure, and parameter semantics leaves an agent under-informed. The presence of idempotency_key and request_id suggests meaningful call-context requirements that the description does not address.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate, but it only explains the overall action. It does not clarify the meaning or required format of interview_session_id, nor the purpose of request_id and idempotency_key. The parameter names provide some self-evident hints, but the optional idempotency parameters remain unexplained.

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 ('Generate') and names a concrete resource ('a scheduling link for an interview session'). This clearly distinguishes it from the many sibling interview-session tools like read, cancel, start, or complete, which serve different purposes.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description gives no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites such as requiring an existing interview session, whether scheduling must be enabled, or whether the link is for candidates only. The agent is left to infer usage from the name and description alone.

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