panelica_ssh_users_get_v1_ssh_users_id

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

The description indicates a read operation ('Get') but provides no details about the response format, what fields are returned, or any side effects. With no annotations, the description should compensate but it remains minimal.

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 concise at three lines, including the HTTP method and category. It front-loads the core purpose, but the category line adds minimal value. No unnecessary text.

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 retrieval tool without an output schema or annotations, the description is incomplete. It fails to mention what information is returned (e.g., username, SSH keys, status) or any constraints, leaving the agent with insufficient context for confident 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 input schema has 100% coverage with one parameter 'id' described as 'Path parameter: id'. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, leading to a baseline score of 3.

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 'Get SSH user', which is a specific verb+resource indicating retrieval of an SSH user. It is distinct from sibling tools that perform mutations (delete, patch, suspend/unsuspend), though it does not explicitly differentiate itself.

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. It does not explain that this tool is for viewing details of a specific SSH user by ID, nor does it mention prerequisites or related tools like panelica_ssh_users_delete_v1_ssh_users_id.

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