Api folders cascade info 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 safety is covered. The description nonetheless adds nothing beyond annotations — no indication of what a 'cascade' traverses, what the 'preview' contains, or whether the id refers to a folder.

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 shortness here is under-specification rather than concision: a dangling label followed by a colon with nothing after it. There is no front-loaded substance to be concise about.

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 an opaque one-parameter contract, no output schema, and heavy sibling ambiguity, the description supplies none of the information an agent needs to call it correctly.

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?

There is a single required parameter 'id' with 0% schema description coverage and no type description. The description gives no hint what the id identifies (folder? object? generic content?) or its format, so it fails to compensate for the schema gap.

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 the two-word fragment "Cascade preview:" — a label rather than a sentence. It hints at the resource family (folders cascade info) and the read shape (preview), but never states what is being previewed or returned. It cannot be distinguished from the dozens of sibling *_cascade_info_retrieve tools.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisite, and no alternative named. With a sibling named ciso_assistant_api_folders_cascade_info_retrieve and ~50 other cascade_info_retrieve variants, an agent has no basis for choosing this tool.

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