Get Temp Session Recipes

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

No annotations are supplied, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It implies a read operation with 'Retrieve' but does not state read-only status, permission needs, session-expiry behavior, or what happens when the temp session is missing or cleaned up.

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 single sentence is front-loaded and free of unnecessary wording. Its conciseness is appropriate in form, though it reflects under-specification rather than rich clarity.

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 absence of annotations, an output schema, and sibling tools that distinguish temporary versus regular recipe sessions, the description is too thin. It does not explain the temporary session lifecycle or how this retrieval differs from non-temporary alternatives.

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 100%, so the input schema already explains both session_id and recipe_id. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema baseline.

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 states a retrieve action for recipes, but 'temporary persistent storage' is vague and internally contradictory. It does not distinguish this tool from sibling tools such as get_session_recipes or get_session_recipes, leaving the exact temporary session context unclear.

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 guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_session_recipes, list_temp_sessions, or store_recipe_in_temp_tables. The description provides no context about required session state or whether cleanup is needed before or after retrieval.

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