get_component_guide

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden, and it discloses almost nothing: not whether results are static reference material or dynamic, not the return format, not whether the lookup is case-sensitive or falls back on partial matches. Only the implicit read-only nature of a 'guide' lookup can be inferred.

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 sentence, front-loaded with the verb and resource, with no filler. It is efficient, though the brevity is also part of the under-specification problem rather than pure economy.

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 lookup with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate: an agent knows what it fetches. It omits when to prefer this over sibling guide tools and what the returned patterns look like, which for a documentation-retrieval tool is a meaningful omission.

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 schema's own description supplies rich examples ('SpotTradeForm', 'PositionTable', 'portfolio', 'theming', 'wallet', 'page-layouts'). The prose adds no syntax, casing, or fallback detail beyond that, so the baseline 3 applies.

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 and resource: retrieving React UI component patterns for GDEX trading interfaces. The resource is concrete and the domain is named. However, it does nothing to distinguish itself from nearby reference tools such as get_sdk_pattern, get_trading_guide, or search_gdex_docs, so an agent must guess which reference source applies.

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 description gives no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives. With six-plus sibling documentation/guide tools in the set, the absence of any routing hint is a real gap.

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