v1.17.5Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden. It usefully discloses that the storefront URL is fixed server-side and no url parameter is accepted, but says nothing about auth requirements, rate limits, or the nature/shape of the returned metadata.
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?
Front-loaded and short, with the key fact (fixed URL) placed early. Minor redundancy: the first sentence and the start of the second both restate that it returns store metadata.
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?
For a simple zero-parameter read tool with no output schema, the description conveys what it returns at a high level and why there are no inputs. It could say more about what storefront metadata contains, but it is adequate for the tool's complexity.
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 tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description actively explains the absence of a url parameter by noting the storefront URL is fixed server-side, which prevents an agent from searching for a URL argument.
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?
States a specific verb (Get) and resource (Pristine Marketplace store metadata), and the second sentence clarifies the returned resource is storefront metadata. It distinguishes itself from the products/collections siblings by being the store-level metadata tool, though it never names an alternative explicitly.
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?
Usage is implied by the purpose — you call it to fetch storefront metadata — and it notes the URL is fixed server-side. However, it gives no explicit when-to-use vs when-not guidance or points to sibling tools like pristine_marketplace_page or pristine_marketplace_products.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
