Descargar todos los recursos de un curso

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It states the tool downloads files to a local directory and returns saved files with sizes, but does not address key behaviors such as overwrite policy, error handling, authentication requirements, or handling of large courses. Minimal context beyond basic action.

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 in Spanish that efficiently communicates the action and output. No unnecessary words or repetition.

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 that the tool has 3 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is too minimal. It lacks details on recursive downloads, error behavior, file size limits, and progress indication. For a bulk download operation, the description is incomplete for an agent to fully understand the tool's behavior.

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 67% (destDir and section have descriptions, courseId lacks one). The description mentions 'a un directorio local' and 'todos los archivos/recursos' hinting at destDir and courseId, but does not explain destDir path requirements, permissions, or that courseId is required. It adds little value beyond the schema.

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 tool downloads all files/resources of a course in bulk to a local directory and returns a list with file sizes. The verb 'descarga en bloque' and resource 'todos los archivos/recursos de un curso' are specific and distinguishable from siblings like dutic_download_file (single file) and dutic_list_course_files (listing only).

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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives is provided. However, the description implies bulk download, and siblings such as dutic_download_file for single files and dutic_list_course_files for listing suggest contrasting use cases. The lack of direct 'when to use' or 'when not to use' statements limits the score.

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