wrike_get_comment

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of disclosure. It does not mention read-only nature, permissions, error cases, or return format. However, the verb 'Get' and the simplicity of the operation imply a safe, read-only retrieval. The description adds no behavioral context beyond the basic purpose, but for a simple getter this is minimally adequate.

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, focused sentence: 'Get a specific comment by ID.' It communicates the essential purpose without wasted words, perfectly concise and front-loaded.

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 tool's low complexity (2 params, no output schema) and that the schema covers parameter semantics, the description is nearly sufficient. It doesn't explicitly describe the return value, but for a 'get' operation this is implied. It could have added value by confirming the comment content structure, but the lack of an output schema keeps the burden low.

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 schema already provides 100% description coverage for both params (commentId, plainText). The tool description adds nothing beyond the schema. Per the rubric, baseline is 3 when schema coverage is high, and this is the case here.

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 ('Get') and resource ('comment') with a clear scope ('specific comment by ID'). It clearly distinguishes from sibling wrike_list_comments (which lists all comments) by emphasizing the targeted retrieval of a single comment.

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?

The phrase 'by ID' conveys the intended use case: retrieve a single comment when its ID is known. While it doesn't explicitly mention alternatives or when-not-to-use, the context is clear given the sibling list tool. This is 'clear context, no exclusions,' so a 4 is appropriate.

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