f1_mcp_server_get_endpoint_info

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden. 'Retrieve' implies a read-only operation, but nothing is said about authentication, rate limits, error behavior, or what 'detailed information' actually contains (schema fields, examples, param listings).

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler, which is appropriate for a one-parameter tool. It is efficient, though not maximally informative.

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 read tool with a fully described parameter, the description is adequate but leaves the relationship to closely related siblings (get_api_endpoint, get_api_endpoints) unexplained. Nothing an agent needs to call it is strictly missing, but the disambiguation gap keeps it at minimum viable.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the single 'endpoint' parameter is already documented in the schema, and a baseline of 3 applies. The description adds no extra meaning such as accepted endpoint-name formats or examples beyond what the schema provides.

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 (retrieve) and resource (detailed information about an OpenF1 API endpoint), so the core purpose is clear. However, it does not distinguish itself from the similarly named siblings get_api_endpoint and get_api_endpoints, leaving ambiguity about which tool returns what.

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 choose this tool over get_api_endpoint, get_api_endpoints, or get_filter_info, nor any prerequisite or exclusion. The agent must infer the selection criteria entirely on its own.

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