role_privileges

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

No annotations provided; description only indicates it's a list operation (non-destructive). Fails to disclose potential errors (e.g., role not found), ordering, or pagination behavior.

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?

Extremely concise single sentence; no wasted words, but could benefit from minimal additional context without becoming 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?

Adequate for a simple read operation with an output schema, but lacks parameter details and usage guidance, leaving gaps for an AI agent.

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 sole parameter role_id is not described at all (0% schema coverage); the tool description does not clarify its format, constraints, or purpose beyond being a role identifier.

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?

Clearly states the tool lists privileges for a role, distinguishing it from privilege creation/deletion (role_privilege_grant/revoke) and role listing (roles_list).

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 privileges_list or role_privilege_grant; lacks context for usage scenarios.

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