Api privacy purposes article 9 condition retrieve

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

The description says the endpoint allows purposes to be 'viewed or edited', which contradicts readOnlyHint=true and the retrieve-only nature of the route. No other behavioral detail (auth needs, response contents) is offered, so the sentence actively misleads rather than adds context.

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?

A single short sentence with no filler, but it is under-specified rather than concise, and it spends its limited words on an inaccurate 'edited' clause instead of the article 9 condition semantics.

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 and no parameters, the description is the only place an agent could learn what this endpoint returns about Article 9 conditions, and it says nothing about it. For a legal-basis/compliance-relevant lookup, that leaves the caller unable to judge relevance.

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 schema is complete and the description carries no parameter burden. Baseline 4 applies; no parameter claims are made or needed.

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?

It states a resource (privacy purposes) and a capability (viewing/editing), but this is generic DRF boilerplate that never mentions the 'Article 9 condition' facet in the tool name. It does not distinguish itself from close siblings such as api_privacy_purposes_retrieve or api_privacy_purposes_legal_basis_retrieve.

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 indication of when an agent should pick this endpoint over the many adjacent privacy_purposes_* tools, and no prerequisites or eligibility conditions are mentioned. The agent is left to infer purpose entirely from the mangled endpoint name.

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