TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered by structured data. The description adds only the "admin" toolset label, which hints at a privileged scope, but says nothing about authentication or not-found behavior that annotations do not cover.

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?

The body is a single front-loaded sentence plus a short toolset note and parameter list, with no filler prose. The parameter list is slightly redundant against a 100%-covered schema, which is the only waste.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a one-parameter read with a declared output schema and full annotations, the description covers what the tool does and how to identify the team. It leaves out when to prefer it over sibling read tools and any notes on privileged access, which is a modest but real gap.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100% and the single teamId parameter is already documented as "UUID of the team" in the schema. The description's parameter list merely restates that, adding no format, sourcing, or lookup guidance. Baseline 3 applies when the schema already carries full parameter meaning.

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

Purpose4/5

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

"Retrieve details for a specific team by UUID (admin)" gives a specific verb (retrieve), resource (team), and selector (UUID), which distinguishes it from list-style siblings like contract-testing_admin_list_teams and contract-testing_admin_list_team_users. It never names those siblings explicitly, so the differentiation is implied rather than stated.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no guidance on when to call this versus contract-testing_admin_list_teams or contract-testing_admin_get_team_user, and no prerequisites or error expectations (e.g. what happens for an unknown UUID). The only contextual hint is the "(admin)" marker, which implies elevated privileges but does not explain them.

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