v1.0.0Input schema / $schemaAdded value: +"http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavior, but it only states a read operation. It does not mention potential authorization requirements, response size, pagination, or any operational characteristics beyond the literal 'get'. This is minimal and leaves the agent without expectations for side effects or data volume.
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 a single sentence that is direct and free of unnecessary words. It fully fits the tool's simple scope and does not waste any space.
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 that the tool has no parameters and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate for selecting and invoking it. However, 'detailed information' is unspecified, leaving the agent uncertain about the exact return structure. It is not misleading, but it lacks the depth needed for full contextual completeness.
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 tool has zero parameters, and the schema coverage is effectively 100% since no parameters exist. The baseline for zero params is 4, and the description adds no parameter-specific information, but none is needed. It does not introduce ambiguity.
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 specifies a clear verb ('Get') and resource ('detailed information about all installed themes'), and the 'detailed' qualifier distinguishes it from the sibling tool `wordpress_get_themes`. However, 'detailed' is vague and does not specify exactly what information is included, so it falls short of a perfect score.
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 does not provide any guidance on when to use this tool compared to alternatives such as `wordpress_get_themes` or other theme-related tools. It does not mention prerequisites, exclusions, or a preferred context of use, so the agent is left without usage direction.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
