finance_product_finance_analysis

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It discloses routing behavior but fails to mention side effects, permissions, or whether the action is read-only or mutating, leaving significant behavioral gaps.

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 short and front-loaded with the core action. Every sentence contributes, but the brevity sacrifices clarity, especially in explaining the tool's purpose.

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?

Given the tool's complexity and lack of annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain the nature of the analysis (product-level finance), and the agent lacks context to differentiate from many similar sibling tools.

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 description explains message as 'Free-text objective' and inputs as 'Optional JSON string of structured inputs', adding some meaning beyond the bare schema. However, it does not specify the expected JSON structure or constraints, providing only minimal value.

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 the tool runs a specific domain agent action 'product_finance_analysis', providing a verb and resource. However, it does not explain what this analysis entails or how it differs from sibling tools like finance_project_finance_analysis, leaving 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?

The description mentions routing through a dispatcher under JWT, tenant, and company scope, which is auth context, but provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any exclusion criteria.

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