Api asset class tree 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 structurally. The description adds nothing about what the 'tree' contains, its shape, whether it is nested/hierarchical, or whether it reflects the org's asset taxonomy versus a template.

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 concise only because it says nothing at all — a single slug fragment with no sentence. Under-specification, not economical writing; nothing is front-loaded because there is no content to front-load.

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 is the only place an agent could learn what the returned tree looks like — and it says nothing. For a hierarchy-returning endpoint in a crowded asset-class family, that leaves the agent guessing whether to prefer this over the flat retrieve/list variants.

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 tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline of 4 applies; there is nothing for the description to disambiguate. Schema is a closed empty object, consistent with the description not mentioning any inputs.

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 literally the tool name in snake_case ('api_asset_class_tree_retrieve'), a tautology that adds no verb+resource explanation beyond the slug. It is distinguishable from siblings like asset_class_retrieve only by the word 'tree', which the description never explains (what tree, of what depth, of what objects).

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 indication of when to call this instead of the many adjacent tools (asset_class_retrieve, asset_class_cascade_info_retrieve, assets_asset_class_retrieve, frameworks_tree_retrieve). No prerequisites, no exclusions, no alternative named.

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