Api settings sso info retrieve

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

Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, and open-world behavior. The description adds only the claimed return value, a CSRF token; it says nothing about token sensitivity, authentication requirements, or SSO configuration details.

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 a single sentence with no filler and front-loads the claimed return value. The terseness is not wasted, though the sentence is under-specified rather than genuinely informative.

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?

There is no output schema, so the description must carry return semantics, but it mentions only a CSRF token and not the SSO info implied by the tool name, its format, or how it should be used. For a security-sensitive SSO settings endpoint, this leaves key context missing.

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 has zero parameters and an empty schema with 100% coverage, so there are no parameter semantics to explain. Baseline 4 applies.

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 gives a specific verb and returned resource, 'returns the CSRF token,' but that resource does not match the tool name/title 'settings sso info retrieve' and overlaps with the dedicated ciso_assistant_api_csrf_retrieve sibling. An agent cannot tell what 'sso info' actually covers from this sentence.

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 indication of when to call this instead of ciso_assistant_api_csrf_retrieve or ciso_assistant_api_settings_sso_cascade_info_retrieve, and no prerequisites, exclusions, or authentication context are given.

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