A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already establish read-only, idempotent, open-world, non-destructive behavior. The description adds only that this is a shortcut for page selection and does not explain what the result set looks like; no contradiction with annotations.

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?

One short, front-loaded sentence with no filler; every word adds either scope or usage context.

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?

The tool is simple, has one required parameter, an output schema, and annotations covering safety/behavior. The main remaining gap is the lack of an example or clarification of what a task looks like, but for its complexity the definition is adequate.

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

Parameters3/5

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

The schema has 0% coverage and just names `task` as a string. The description clarifies that `task` is the input driving the page suggestions, which is meaningful, but it does not specify format or expected phrasing; this partially compensates for the empty schema description.

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?

The description states the tool recommends which package pages to read for a given task, naming a concrete resource and purpose. It does not explicitly contrast with any sibling tool, so it lacks the sharp differentiation seen in the best definitions.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

'Optional shortcut' implies this is a convenience alternative to a fuller workflow, and 'for *task*' describes the trigger. However, there is no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to siblings like search or packages.

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