permission-getWorkspaceRolePermissions

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. The tool name and description ('Get') strongly imply a read-only operation, but no explicit statement about safety, authorization needs, or side effects is given. It is adequate but not thorough.

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 very short (one sentence plus a tag), which is efficient for a simple tool. However, it lacks structure (e.g., bullet points or examples) that could improve readability and quick understanding.

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 single parameter and no output schema, the description should clarify the return format (e.g., array of roles with permissions). It does not, leaving the agent guessing about the response structure. The description is incomplete.

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 description does not elaborate on the single required parameter 'workspacePublicId'. The parameter name is self-explanatory, but the description adds no value beyond the schema, failing to compensate for the lack of schema descriptions.

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 'Get all roles for a workspace with their granted permissions', specifying the verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like permission-getWorkspaceRoles (which likely returns only roles) and permission-getRolePermissions (which targets a specific role). However, it could be more explicit about the response structure.

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 versus alternatives like permission-getMemberPermissions or permission-getMyPermissions. The description does not mention when to use or not use this tool, leaving the agent to infer from the name and siblings.

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