cueprecise_summary

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

No annotations are provided, and the description only hints at caching ('reuse current summary') and availability ('immediately usable'). It does not clarify side effects, whether the tool modifies state, or what 'packet' means. The transparency is insufficient.

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 and reasonably brief, though it includes some jargon ('packet', 'local summary') that could be clearer. It is not overly verbose.

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 essential context: what constitutes a 'full video summary', what the output format is, and what a 'packet' refers to. It is not complete enough for an agent to fully understand the tool's role and limitations.

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 schema has only one required parameter 'video_id' with no description, and the tool description does not mention it at all. With 0% schema coverage and no compensation, the parameter semantics are not clarified.

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 states a verb ('create or reuse') and resource ('summary') but lacks specificity about what the tool actually returns or does beyond that condition. It mentions 'local summary' and 'packet' without clear definitions, making the purpose somewhat vague.

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?

It provides a condition ('only when the user requests a full video summary') and references the sibling 'cueprecise_set_summary' for improvements, which gives some guidance. However, it does not explicitly distinguish when to use this tool versus other siblings like 'cueprecise_query' or 'cueprecise_outline'.

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