TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden. It discloses the return shape (purse metadata plus role-grouped players) and implies a read operation via 'Get', but it does not explicitly state read-only behavior, error handling, or pagination/size expectations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is short, front-loaded with the tool action, and immediately follows with return details and prerequisite discovery. Every sentence adds practical value without redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Because there is no output schema, it is important that the description describes returned content, which it does. It also covers input discovery, making the definition complete enough for correct invocation, though it could say more about response shape or error cases.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so all four parameters are already documented in detail with allowed values and discovery paths. The description adds a small useful nuance by naming auction/teams as an alternative team_id source, but most parameter information is already in the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a specific verb and resource: get a Cricbuzz auction team's roster. It also enumerates the returned data (purse metadata and role-grouped players), making the tool distinguishable from sibling auction tools such as teams, teams_options, and seasons.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It clearly tells the agent how to obtain required inputs: team_id through auction/teams/options or auction/teams, and currency through auction/seasons. It does not explicitly name when-not-to-use or alternative roster/player tools, but the prerequisite guidance is strong.

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