seriea_team_stats

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

No annotations, but description discloses return structure, stat count (~402 pairs), and category rule. Does not cover error behavior or rate limits, but provides solid behavioral insight.

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 with main purpose, includes important details about stat count and return structure. Slightly verbose but well-organized.

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 4 params, no output schema, and no annotations, the description covers return structure and category parameter meaning. However, it omits page/locale semantics and contradicts itself by stating 'all 20 teams' while including pagination fields.

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?

Schema coverage is 0%, but description adds meaning for 'category' (General/Goalkeeping rule) and implies seasonId usage. Does not explain 'page' or 'locale' parameters, leaving gaps.

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?

Clearly specifies it retrieves team stat leaderboard for a season, listing all 20 teams with Opta stats. However, it does not distinguish from sibling tools like seriea_teams or seriea_standings, which also provide team data.

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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like seriea_teams (basic info) or seriea_standings (ranking). The 'same category rule' mention is about parameter semantics, not usage context.

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