v1.17.9Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden. It does disclose that the returned values are 'live' and region-specific (implying dynamic, feed-driven data), but says nothing about caching, freshness window, or failure modes, so the disclosure is helpful yet incomplete.
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?
Three short sentences: what it discovers, what it returns, and how to use the result. The purpose and the routing instruction are front-loaded and nothing is redundant.
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 parameterless, read-only discovery endpoint with no output schema, the description covers the return contents (regions, sports, months) and the downstream consumer. Only the absence of any freshness or shape detail keeps it from being fully complete.
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, which sets the baseline at 4. The description correctly implies no input is needed to enumerate the available filters; there is no parameter detail to add.
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 ('Discover') and resource ('Sportskeeda calendar regions, sports, and months'), and the second sentence pins down that these are live filter values from the embedded event calendar feed. It is also distinguishable from sibling sportskeeda_event_calendar, since it is explicitly the option-lookup step that feeds that tool.
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 closing instruction 'Use these values with /sportskeeda/event-calendar' tells the agent exactly when this tool is relevant and what consumes its output. There is no explicit when-not branch or mention of competing *_options siblings, so it is short of a 5.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
