Get Batch Job

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, fully covering the safety profile, so the description carries a lower burden. However, it adds no behavioral context at all beyond the annotations, not even whether a missing job errors or returns empty.

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 short sentence with no waste and the key information front-loaded. It is efficient, though arguably too terse to be 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 one-parameter read tool with full annotations and full schema coverage, the definition is minimally adequate. Without an output schema, the description could clarify what 'details' includes, but annotations compensate for the safety dimension.

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% and the single job_id parameter is documented in the schema ('Batch job ID'), so the baseline is 3. The description adds nothing beyond the schema, but none is required here.

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 clear verb (Get) and resource (details of a batch job), which an agent can distinguish from list_batch_jobs, create_batch_job, and cancel_batch_job by operation. It does not explicitly name those siblings, but the action-to-resource mapping is unambiguous.

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 guidance about when to use this over mistral_list_batch_jobs or mistral_get_fine_tuning_job, and no preconditions stated. The agent must infer that this retrieves a single job by ID.

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