Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure but fails to indicate whether this is a read-only operation, explain pagination behavior despite the cursor parameter, or describe rate limiting. It does not disclose what search syntax is supported (exact match, partial, boolean).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
