gitee_list_network_events

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

The description implies the tool is read-only ('list public events'), which is important. With no annotations, it provides basic behavioral clarity. However, it does not disclose details such as default pagination, rate limits, or what constitutes a 'network'.

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, concise sentence that conveys the core functionality without extraneous words. It is well-structured and front-loaded, providing immediate 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?

While the tool is simple, the description lacks crucial context such as the definition of a repository network, how this differs from other event listings, and output format (no output schema provided). Completeness is insufficient for differentiating among many sibling tools.

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 input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for all four parameters. The description adds no additional parameter details beyond what the schema already provides, meeting the baseline but not enhancing it.

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 the tool lists public events for a network of repositories. The verb 'list' and resource 'public events for a network' are specific, though the term 'network' is not further defined. It distinguishes from sibling event-listing tools by targeting a network context.

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 gitee_list_repo_events or gitee_list_user_events. There is no mention of prerequisites or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.

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