A4.4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint/idempotentHint/openWorldHint, so the safety profile is covered; the description adds real behavioral context such as the minimum-filter requirement and the default/max result window (`limite` 100, max 500). It reveals the response envelope shape, though auth/permission behavior is not discussed (likely unnecessary for a public read).

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Information-dense and front-loaded: the mode definition comes first, then filters, then return shape, then examples. It is a single very long run-on paragraph with heavy parenthetical field lists, which slightly hurts scannability, but essentially every clause carries distinct information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 10-parameter, three-mode tool, it covers mode selection, per-mode filter applicability, pagination bounds, filter requirements, and even the return envelope fields (`secao`, `count`, `total`, `aviso?`, `itens`). An agent has everything needed to construct a valid call.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3; the description goes beyond it by mapping each filter family to its section (e.g. `codigoParlamentarAutor` only for emendas, `codigoColegiado`/`codigoParlamentar`/`dataReferencia` for relatorias) and by showing combined-filter examples. It largely consolidates rather than introduces new syntax, so 4 rather than 5.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb+resource ('Detalha um aspecto de processos legislativos') and immediately keys it to the `secao` parameter with three enumerated modes. This clearly distinguishes it from `senado_obter_processo` (single process) and `senado_search_processos` (search), which it references as the way to obtain `idProcesso`.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives clear routing: obtain `idProcesso` via `senado_search_processos` and prazo types via `senado_tabelas_processo`, plus the constraint 'informe pelo menos um filtro' and two worked examples. It stops short of an explicit when-not statement versus `senado_obter_processo`, so it is strong but not fully exhaustive.

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