uipath_get_releases

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavior. It only indicates a read operation ('Get') but does not disclose details like authentication requirements, pagination, rate limits, or what 'available' means in terms of filtering or status. The schema hints at filtering by folderId and processKey, but the description itself adds no behavioral context.

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 front-loads the action and resource. It includes the source system and enough detail to convey purpose without extraneous words. Every word contributes to meaning.

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 the simplicity of the tool (2 optional parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description provides a basic understanding of its purpose. However, it lacks context on return format, pagination, or use cases, and does not differentiate from sibling getter tools. It is minimally viable but not comprehensive.

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 already provides descriptions for both parameters (folderId: 'Folder ID to filter releases', processKey: 'Filter by process key'), achieving 100% schema description coverage. The tool description does not add any semantic information beyond what the schema provides, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 action ('Get') and resource ('available releases/processes') from a specific source ('UiPath Orchestrator'). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like uipath_get_jobs or uipath_get_assets, which target different resource types.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description merely states what it does without providing context such as typical use cases, prerequisites, or when a sibling tool would be more appropriate. No exclusions or conditions are mentioned.

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