Api asset class object retrieve

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered without the description. The description adds nothing at all beyond that — not even confirmation that it returns a single asset class record by identifier.

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 not because it is efficient — it is a bare repetition of the tool name with no front-loaded statement of purpose. There is no structure to speak of.

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?

With no output schema, an undocumented parameter, and several near-identical sibling retrieve tools, the description leaves an agent unable to confirm what is returned or when this tool is the right call. Nothing an agent needs is supplied.

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?

One required parameter `id` with 0% schema description coverage, so the description must explain it and does not. It never clarifies whether the id is a numeric PK, UUID, or a business ref_id, which matters given this API family mixes those conventions.

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 only "api_asset_class_object_retrieve", which restates the tool name rather than stating what it does. An agent can infer a single-object fetch from the "object_retrieve" suffix, but nothing distinguishes it from siblings like `asset_class_retrieve` or `asset_class_list`.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of the very similar sibling tools (`api_asset_class_retrieve`, `api_asset_class_list`, `api_asset_class_cascade_info_retrieve`). The agent has no basis for choosing this over them.

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