get_naming_config

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. 'Get' clearly signals a read-only operation with no side effects, but the description does not mention return shape, whether defaults are included, or any error behavior. For a zero-parameter getter this is a moderate but acceptable gap.

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?

A single declarative sentence with no filler or redundant information. The verb and object are front-loaded, and the length is appropriate for a simple 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, side-effect-free getter with no parameters, the definition is largely complete and unambiguous for tool selection and invocation. The absence of an output schema and lack of any detail about the returned configuration fields are minor gaps, but they do not prevent correct usage.

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 has zero parameters and schema description coverage is effectively complete, so no parameter documentation is needed. The baseline for zero-parameter tools applies; the description adds no parameter semantics, but none are required.

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?

States a specific verb ('get') and a specific resource ('file and folder naming configuration'), clearly indicating a read-only retrieval. It does not explicitly contrast itself with get_naming_examples or update_naming_config, but the resource named is distinct enough to avoid major confusion.

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 is given about when to use this tool versus related siblings such as get_naming_examples or update_naming_config. The 'get' phrasing implies use when the current naming configuration is needed, but no context, prerequisites, or exclusions are provided.

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