Api task templates status retrieve

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint, so behavior beyond that is not required — but the description contributes nothing true about the call (no indication that it returns enumerated status values for task templates). It describes an export mixin instead, leaving an agent with an incorrect mental model.

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 short and front-loaded, so it passes the structure test, but brevity that conveys the wrong subject is worse than silence. The single sentence is pure waste because it has no relation to the tool.

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 (presumably the list of available task-template statuses). It instead describes CSV/XLSX export, so the definition is fundamentally incomplete.

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 with 100% schema coverage, so there is nothing for the description to clarify; the baseline for a no-param tool applies. The off-topic sentence neither helps nor adds parameter confusion.

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 says 'Generic export mixin for CSV/XLSX exports,' which describes no export tool at all and says nothing about retrieving task-template statuses. It is actively misleading about the tool's resource and verb, and offers no differentiation from the many sibling *_status_retrieve endpoints.

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 when-to-use guidance, no mention of alternatives like ciso_assistant_api_task_templates_per_status_retrieve or ciso_assistant_api_task_templates_retrieve, and no indication of when this endpoint should be called instead of them. The sentence that is present points the agent toward an unrelated export scenario.

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