Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It only states 'manage' and 'view', omitting behavioral traits like that create/update actions modify data, potential side effects, or required permissions. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema for transparency.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, which is concise. However, it could be restructured to front-load the specific actions (list, create, update) instead of using the vague 'manage'. It earns its place but is not optimally informative.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity (4 parameters, multiple actions, no output schema, no annotations), the description is insufficient. It does not explain return values, how different actions work, or preconditions. An agent would lack critical context for effective use.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema's parameter descriptions. For example, it doesn't clarify the difference between 'list_builtin' and 'list_custom', or explain the format of 'keywordCode'. The description meets the baseline but adds no value.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description 'Manage custom keywords and view built-in keywords' clearly identifies the resource (keywords) and implies actions (manage, view). The action enum in the schema confirms the specific operations. It distinguishes from sibling tools like katalon_create_test_case or katalon_execute_test_suite, which deal with different resources.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

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. Sibling tools suggest different tasks (analyzing project, creating test case), but no explicit context or exclusions are given. An agent would need 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.
