watch_all

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool initiates a daily scan and alerts on stock increases, but omits details like reversibility, persistence, or what alerts look like. Some behavioral context is given but not comprehensive.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no extra words. Every sentence earns its place, providing necessary information efficiently.

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?

The description lacks details on what happens after enabling the watcher (e.g., how alerts are delivered, how to stop). Sibling tools like unwatch_all exist but are not referenced. For a simple tool, it's adequate but could be more complete.

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?

There are zero parameters, and the schema coverage is 100% by default. Per guidelines, 0 parameters gives a baseline of 4. The description adds no parameter-related meaning, but none is needed.

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?

Description clearly states the tool enables full-catalog restock monitoring, distinguishing it from siblings like watch_product for individual products. The verb 'Enable' and resource 'full-catalog restock monitoring' are specific and unambiguous.

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?

The description implies usage when broad monitoring of all SAQ products is desired. While it doesn't explicitly mention when not to use or alternatives, the sibling list provides context. A clear guideline is provided within the description.

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