commerce_economic_context

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

The description discloses routing through a domain-agent dispatcher with JWT/tenant/company scope, adding some transparency. However, it does not indicate whether the tool is read-only or destructive, nor does it mention side effects, rate limits, or other behavioral traits. Since no annotations exist, more detail was expected.

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 relatively concise at four lines plus Args, with no redundant information. However, it could be shortened by removing the routing details that may not be essential for the agent.

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?

Despite having an output schema (not shown), the description fails to mention what the tool returns. Given the simple parameters and lack of annotations, the description should provide more context about the tool's output and usage scenarios to be complete.

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 Args section provides brief descriptions for the two parameters: 'message' as free-text objective, and 'inputs' as optional JSON string. This adds value beyond the schema (which has 0% description coverage), but the descriptions remain generic and do not specify allowed values or structure.

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 states it runs the commerce domain agent action 'economic_context', but does not explain what this action does or what 'economic context' means. It fails to distinguish itself from other commerce_* sibling tools, making the purpose vague.

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 provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, context, or exclusions, leaving the agent without clear decision criteria.

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