Report Failed Downloads

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only says 'report' implying a read operation, but does not explicitly state read-only nature, authentication needs, or what happens if no failed downloads exist. Minimal disclosure.

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?

The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it is poorly structured and contains a grammatical error. It adds little value beyond the title and does not front-load important information.

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?

Given 11 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain the report's format, pagination via 'page'/'limit'/'cursor', or what the response will contain. The agent cannot correctly invoke this tool based on the description alone.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0%, meaning parameter descriptions are missing from the input schema. The tool description adds no meaning to the 11 parameters (e.g., what 'to', 'from', 'detail' mean). This is a critical gap.

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 'Generate report failed downloads' indicates a verb ('Generate') and resource ('report failed downloads'), but it is grammatically awkward and vague. It does not specify the type of report (list vs. aggregated) or differentiate it from siblings like 'failed_downloads_by_indexer' or 'report_monthly_statistics'.

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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Given many sibling tools for reporting, the description fails to help the agent decide which tool to invoke.

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