buscar_empresa

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool searches the CVM registry and that results may include companies with cancelled/suspended status, which is a useful behavioral trait. However, it does not mention any side effects, authentication needs, or return format.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the main action, and uses line breaks for readability. Every sentence adds value with no fluff.

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 search tool with 2 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description covers purpose, usage guidance, and the main parameter. However, it omits explanation of the 'limite' parameter and return values, leaving minor gaps.

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 0%, so the description must compensate. It explains that 'consulta' can be a name, CNPJ, or CVM code, adding meaning. However, it fails to describe 'limite' (limit), which defaults to 10. Partial compensation leads to a score of 3.

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 verb (busca = searches), resource (companies in CVM registry), and search criteria (name, CNPJ, or CVM code). It distinguishes from sibling tools like analisar_empresa or obter_indicadores, which are for analysis and data retrieval, not searching.

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?

Explicitly says to use this tool before any other to confirm the correct company, warning about similar names and cancelled/suspended registrations. This provides clear when-to-use and context-specific guidance.

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