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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden. It discloses that the tool returns components, credits, build time, and sub-recipes, which covers the main output behavior. However, it does not mention error handling (e.g., unknown items) or any side effects, which is a gap.

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 two sentences, no redundant words, and front-loads the purpose with a clear verb and resource. Every sentence adds value.

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 simple input (one parameter) and no output schema, the description adequately covers the return values (components, credits, build time, sub-recipes). It is complete for a lookup tool, though it could mention output format or order for 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?

Schema coverage is 100% and the schema already describes the 'item_names' parameter with an example. The description adds the phrase 'for one or more Warframe items' but does not provide additional semantic or format details beyond what the schema offers, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 the verb 'look up' and the resource 'crafting recipe' for Warframe items, and explicitly answers the user question 'what do I need to build X?'. It specifies the output includes components, credits, build time, and sub-recipes, and is distinct from sibling tools like 'crafting_usage'.

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 implies usage through the question 'what do I need to build X?' but does not provide explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternative tool differentiation. It lacks guidance on prerequisites such as needing exact item names.

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