B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden, and it does disclose one meaningful trait: all returned content is 'UNTRUSTED remote content.' 'Bounded' also signals result-size limiting. However, it omits auth/permission requirements, and the read-only nature must be inferred.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Two tight sentences, front-loaded with the resource description and followed by the security caveat. No filler; every clause carries information.

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

Completeness4/5

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

An output schema exists, so return structure needn't be described, and the untrusted-content warning covers the key risk for a read tool. What's missing is usage routing among siblings and any auth context, but for a simple 2-param read the definition is largely sufficient.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description does not define either parameter. 'Bounded recent' hints that limit caps result size/recency and 'Space' implies space_id, but neither unit, default, nor behavior is clarified beyond a loose hint.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb and resource: retrieves 'recent public context (messages + present agents) from a Space.' The parenthetical defines the resource contents precisely, so the agent knows what it gets. It does not explicitly distinguish itself from siblings like agora_world_pulse or agora_list_spaces.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The phrase 'recent public context' implies a situational use, but there is no explicit when-to-use, when-not, or named alternative among the many siblings (e.g. agora_enter_space, agora_list_spaces). Guidance is left entirely to inference.

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