get_profit_loss

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It only says 'Get the report', providing no information about defaults, date-range handling, whether the operation is read-only, or what the response contains.

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 single sentence is succinct but under-specified rather than concise. It omits essential operational context and does not earn its place as a sufficient descriptor for a complex tool.

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?

With 10 parameters, 0 required, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is far too thin. It does not explain how to form a report request, what defaults apply, or what the result represents, making it incomplete for reliable invocation.

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 only ２０% and the description names no parameters. It does not explain basis, displayColumnsBy, noneZero, precision, accountIds, or other options, leaving the agent without meaningful guidance for the 10 parameters.

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 specific verb 'Get' and the specific resource 'Bigcapital profit and loss report', which clearly distinguishes it from sibling report tools like get_balance_sheet and get_trial_balance. There is no ambiguity about which tool this is.

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 gives no guidance on when to use this report versus alternative financial reports, nor does it mention any exclusions or conditions. The agent must infer from the tool name alone.

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