islamhouse_quran_author_recitations

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

No annotations exist; the description only states it gets recitations but does not disclose whether results are paginated, what format they return, or any side effects. Lacks sufficient behavioral context for a tool with no annotation support.

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?

A single, clear sentence with no wasted words. Front-loaded with the action and resource.

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?

Adequate for a simple lookup tool with two parameters and no output schema, but could benefit from specifying what a 'recitation' includes (e.g., audio URL, list of surahs). The description is minimal but functional.

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 coverage is 100%, so both parameters (id, language) are described in the schema. The description adds no additional semantic value beyond the schema definitions.

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 clearly states the verb 'Get' and resource 'recitations of a specific Quran reciter/author', distinguishing it from sibling tools like islamhouse_quran_author_details (author info) and islamhouse_quran_recitation_details (single recitation).

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives like islamhouse_quran_sura_recitations. The description does not mention prerequisites or context.

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