D1.6/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so safety is covered structurally. The description adds essentially nothing beyond the word 'preview' – it does not explain what the cascade preview contains, whether it is computed on the fly, or what the caller should expect, which is the main value this description could have provided.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

It is extremely short, but this is under-specification rather than conciseness: there is no front-loaded statement of purpose, scope, or return behavior. The phrase 'Cascade preview:' alone does not earn its place as a useful tool description.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With one required but undocumented parameter, no output schema, and no explanation of what a cascade preview returns or how it should be used, the definition is far too thin for an agent to invoke this tool correctly. The annotations supply safety hints but cannot fill the missing semantic context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters1/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0% and the sole required parameter is an undocumented 'id'. The description does not clarify whether this id refers to the resilience asset assessment, the object being cascaded, or something else, 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.

Purpose2/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description is only 'Cascade preview:' – it gestures at a preview operation but never states what cascade is previewed, over which resource, or what the result represents. It largely restates a fragment of the tool name rather than defining a specific verb+resource action, leaving the agent to infer that this previews cascade effects on resilience asset assessments.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines1/5

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 tool versus siblings such as ciso_assistant_api_resilience_asset_assessments_retrieve, _list, or _destroy. No prerequisites, no context for whether it is meant before a deletion or update, and no exclusions are provided.

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