Api pmbok generic collections 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, openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is carried by structured data. The description adds only the notion of a 'preview', without saying what is previewed, what the payload shape is, or whether results reflect cascade deletions.

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?

Brevity here is under-specification rather than economy; a two-word fragment with a trailing colon reads like a truncated docstring. There is nothing to front-load and no complete sentence for the agent to reason over.

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, one parameter is undocumented in both schema and description, and annotations provide only hints. For a tool whose entire value is returning cascade impact data, the description gives the agent nothing about return content, scope, or prerequisites.

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 description carries the full explanatory burden. It says nothing about whether the id is the collection's UUID, the collection object or a related record, nor what a missing or invalid id yields.

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?

"Cascade preview:" is a two-word fragment that mostly restates the tail of the tool name rather than stating a verb and resource. It hints at a non-committal preview of cascade effects, but an agent cannot tell what 'cascade' applies to (deletion impacts? dependent objects?) or how this differs from the dozens of sibling *_cascade_info_retrieve tools that share the identical suffix.

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 explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternative named. The word 'preview' weakly implies a pre-flight check, but nothing tells the agent to call this before a destroy operation, nor how it relates to ciso_assistant_api_pmbok_generic_collections_retrieve or _object_retrieve.

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