recipe_crud_get_all

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

There are no annotations, so the description must fully convey behavioral context. However, it only says 'Get All' and the endpoint, offering no information about whether the operation is read-only, what data is returned, pagination behavior, or side effects.

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?

The description is extremely short but this conciseness comes at the cost of necessary detail. It fails to earn its place as it provides no actionable information beyond what the tool name and endpoint already imply.

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 the tool's complexity (18 parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description is severely incomplete. It does not help an AI agent understand what the tool does, how to use its parameters, or what to expect in return.

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?

The input schema has 18 parameters, but the description does not mention any of them. With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails to compensate by explaining the purpose or usage of key parameters like 'tags', 'foods', 'search', 'page', etc.

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 is essentially a tautology—'Get All' restates the tool name without specifying what 'All' refers to (e.g., all recipes in the system, all recipes for a user, etc.). The endpoint is included but adds no semantic clarity beyond the name.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool over the many sibling tools like 'explore_recipes_get_all' or 'get_recipe'. The description gives no context about preferred use cases or alternatives.

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