getWebhookEvents

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

There are no annotations, so the description alone must disclose behavior. It only states what the tool does, with no mention of return format, pagination, error handling, or whether it performs a read-only operation. This is minimal behavioral transparency.

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, front-loaded sentence with no fluff, which is appropriately concise for a simple parameter set. It is not empty, avoiding the under-specification seen in worse examples.

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?

Given the lack of annotations and output schema, the description is too sparse to be complete. It does not clarify what kind of events are returned, whether it returns a list or a single item, or any usage context, leaving the agent with insufficient information for confident invocation.

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 input schema provides a single parameter 'id' with a description ('Webhook ID'), achieving 100% schema coverage. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already conveys, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 the action ('Get events') and the target resource ('for a webhook'), using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from 'getWebhook' (which retrieves webhook details) and 'getEvent' (which retrieves a single event), though it doesn't explicitly contrast with sibling tools like 'listEvents'.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'listEvents' or 'getEvent'. It does not mention any prerequisites (e.g., webhook must exist) or scenarios where this tool is preferred.

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