Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden; it does disclose the concrete algorithm (accent stripping, lowercasing, non-alphanumeric replacement), which is meaningful behavioral detail for a pure transform. However, it says nothing about edge cases (empty input, already-slugged text), idempotency, or the output shape.
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?
It is a single front-loaded sentence with the key effect stated immediately and zero filler. It is arguably too terse given the undocumented nested parameters, but no sentence is wasted.
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?
No output schema exists and 0% of parameters are documented, so the description would need to explain inputs and return format, which it does not. For a nested-object input with no annotations, the definition leaves substantial gaps.
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 0% and the input is a nested object with 'text' (required) and 'separator' (default '-'), neither of which is documented anywhere. The description alludes to a 'separator' but never states it is configurable, what its default is, or how 'text' is supplied, so it fails to compensate for the coverage gap.
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?
The description gives a specific verb ('Slugify') plus the exact transformation steps (strip accents, lowercase, replace non-alphanumerics), so the operation is unambiguous. It does not name or contrast with the closest sibling (text_case), but the resource and effect are clear.
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 statement of when to use this tool versus alternatives such as text_case or text_diff, and no prerequisites or context. An agent must infer usage purely from the one-line transform description.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
