get_fw_redir_redir_id

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

Without annotations, the description only provides error codes but omits behavioral details such as authentication requirements, side effects, or response structure. The read-only nature is implied by the name but not stated.

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 very brief (one sentence plus error codes), which is efficient and front-loaded with the primary purpose. However, it sacrifices necessary detail for conciseness.

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?

While an output schema exists, the description fails to provide sufficient context about the parameter, prerequisites, or the meaning of error codes like 'exist'. The tool is simple, but the description is too sparse for reliable agent use.

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 parameter 'redir_id' is required but lacks a description. The schema coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain what the parameter represents beyond implying it identifies the redirect.

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 clearly states it returns PortForwardingConfig properties for a requested redirect, and the name indicates retrieval by ID. It is specific but does not explicitly distinguish from the sibling get_fw_redir, which likely lists all redirects.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_fw_redir. The description lacks context for selecting this tool over similar ones.

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