Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says 'list', implying a read operation, but does not mention pagination (despite a limit parameter), sorting, filtering, or what fields are returned. No additional behavioral traits are disclosed.
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 a single sentence with no redundant words. It is front-loaded and every word contributes to the meaning. It is appropriately sized for a simple list operation.
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?
For a simple two-parameter list tool with no output schema, this is minimally viable. It states the primary purpose and implies the return of a list, but lacks details on pagination, response shape, or how the limit parameter behaves. The lack of output schema makes this description only partially complete.
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 0%, and the description only hints that 'for an ad account' relates to account_id. The limit parameter is not described at all. The description fails to compensate for the lack of schema-level documentation, leaving parameter purpose and usage unclear.
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 uses a specific verb+resource construction: 'List saved audiences for an ad account.' It clearly identifies the action (list) and the target (saved audiences), and the scope (ad account) distinguishes it from similar tools like audiences_list_custom and audiences_get_saved.
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 usage context is provided. The description does not explain when to choose this over siblings (e.g., audiences_get_saved for a single saved audience) or mention any preconditions. It merely states the action with no guidance on alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
