Api asset capabilities object retrieve

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is fully covered by structured data. The description adds nothing beyond that — no note on permissions, lookup failure behavior for a bad id, or what the returned capabilities object contains.

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?

It is short, but that is under-specification rather than conciseness — a bare identifier copy with no sentence structure, no front-loaded purpose, and no information an agent could act on.

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?

No output schema exists, so the description would need to convey what a 'capabilities object' returns, but it does not. Combined with an undocumented required id and a crowded sibling namespace, the definition leaves an agent unable to confidently select or invoke it.

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?

The single required parameter 'id' has 0% schema description coverage, so the schema gives no indication of whether it is a numeric PK, a UUID, or a ref_id. The description does not compensate at all, leaving the only parameter's format and semantics undocumented.

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 is a verbatim restatement of the tool name 'api_asset_capabilities_object_retrieve', which is a tautology rather than an explanation. An agent can infer only that something called an 'asset capabilities object' is retrieved, with no plain-language statement of what the resource actually is or how it differs from siblings like ciso_assistant_api_asset_capabilities_retrieve.

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 on when to use this tool, no prerequisites, and no mention of the near-identical siblings (asset_capabilities_retrieve, asset_capabilities_list, asset_capabilities_cascade_info_retrieve). The agent must guess which of the many asset-capabilities endpoints is appropriate.

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