Get GitOps sync details

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=true, making the tool's safety profile clear. The description does not contradict annotations nor add extra behavioral context (e.g., response format, potential errors). It is adequate given the annotations.

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, short sentence that immediately conveys the tool's purpose. It is devoid of fluff or redundancy, achieving maximum conciseness while remaining informative.

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?

For a simple GET operation with two well-documented parameters and clear annotations, the description covers the essential purpose. However, it lacks information about the return format or any linked resources (e.g., the status tool for checking sync state). It is mostly complete but could be slightly improved.

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 description coverage is 100%, with both parameters having basic descriptions (e.g., 'Environment ID', 'GitOps sync ID'). The tool description does not add any additional meaning or context about how to obtain these IDs or what constitutes a 'GitOps sync configuration'. Baseline 3 applies due to high schema coverage.

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 'Get details' and the resource 'GitOps sync configuration'. The purpose is evident and aligns with the tool name, and it implicitly distinguishes from sibling tools like 'arcane_gitops_list' (listing) and 'arcane_gitops_get_status' (status), though no explicit differentiation is provided in the description.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'arcane_gitops_get_status' for status or 'arcane_gitops_list' for enumerating syncs. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or exclusions.

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