Api pmbok responsibility assignments 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, so safety is covered structurally. The description adds nothing beyond them — it does not say what a "cascade" contains (dependent objects? deletion impact?) or why one would preview it. The trailing colon suggests the text is truncated.

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?

Two words plus a colon — technically concise, but the brevity reflects under-specification rather than efficiency. A dangling colon also signals an incomplete sentence, which harms trust in the definition.

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 explain what a cascade preview returns; it says nothing. With only one required id and full annotation coverage the tool is simple, but an agent still cannot predict the response shape or the meaning of "cascade" here.

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 parameter "id" has 0% schema description coverage, so the description must compensate and does not: it never says whether this is the responsibility assignment id, a project id, or a matrix id. Only REST convention hints at its meaning.

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:" gestures at a preview of cascading effects but names no verb, no resource, and no scope. Against dozens of sibling *_cascade_info_retrieve tools (actors, answers, assets, journeys, etc.), an agent cannot tell which entity's cascade this previews without parsing the auto-generated name.

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 call this versus the entity's plain *_retrieve, *_object_retrieve, or list endpoint, and no statement of prerequisites (e.g. that a valid object id is required). The description offers no usage context whatsoever.

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