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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the action and gives no indication of side effects, persistence, idempotency, required permissions, or what changes occur within the docset. This is a meaningful gap for a tool that enables a feature.

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 clear sentence with no wasted words. It is concise and front-loaded with the core action and target. It could have added more behavioral or usage context without losing conciseness, but as written it is tightly structured.

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 tool with one well-documented parameter and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate. However, it lacks context about when enabling FTS is useful, what it changes, and whether there are prerequisites beyond obtaining the identifier. These gaps make it only partially complete.

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 coverage is 100% and there is only one parameter, so the schema already provides the semantic baseline. The property description adds the useful origin of the identifier ('from list_installed_docsets'), but the main description does not add much beyond what the schema already states.

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 states a specific action ('Enable full-text search') and a specific resource ('a specific docset'). It is clearly distinct from the sibling tools like list_installed_docsets or search_documentation, though it does not explicitly contrast itself with them.

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 about when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as explaining that it should be called after list_installed_docsets and before search_documentation. The parameter description hints at a prerequisite by saying the identifier comes from list_installed_docsets, but the main description provides no usage context or exclusions.

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