subscription_settings_get

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

Annotations are absent, so the description carries the full burden. It only restates the operation (Get) and the resource; it does not disclose side effects, return format, authorization requirements, or whether this is a global settings read. For a read operation this is a notable gap, though the lack of parameters reduces risk.

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 filler. It efficiently names the resource and avoids redundancy, which is entirely appropriate for a zero-parameter getter.

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?

For a simple zero-parameter getter, the description is minimally viable: it states what is retrieved. However, with no output schema and no annotations, it leaves uncertainty about what 'subscription settings' encompasses and what the response will contain, so it could be richer.

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 tool has zero parameters and the schema is an empty object, so there is nothing for the description to explain. Baseline of 4 is appropriate because parameter semantics are trivially satisfied.

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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and a specific resource ('Remnawave subscription settings'), making the core operation clear. It does not explicitly distinguish from siblings like subscription_info or subscription_templates_get, but the resource is distinct enough that an agent can infer this is a general settings getter.

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 such as subscription_settings_update or subscription_templates_get. The description does not give context, preconditions, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.

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