List Domains

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds only that domain policies are included in the result, which is useful but thin additional context.

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?

One short sentence, front-loaded with the verb and resource, with no filler or redundancy.

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?

Because an output schema exists, return-value explanation is not required, so the main remaining obligations are disambiguating the duplicate sibling and documenting workspace_path. Neither is addressed, leaving the definition minimally adequate for a one-parameter read tool.

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 single required parameter workspace_path has 0% schema description coverage, so the schema gives no meaning, and the description never mentions the parameter at all — not its expected form (file geodatabase vs. enterprise connection) nor any constraints. The description fails to compensate for the documented 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?

States a specific verb (列出/list) and a precise resource: coded-value domains and range domains plus their policies, which is more informative than the bare title 'List Domains'. However, it does not distinguish itself from the near-identical sibling arcgis_pro_workspace_list_domains, which also operates on a workspace.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives. With a sibling named arcgis_pro_workspace_list_domains, the agent gets no help deciding which of the two to call.

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