task_event_count_1

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

No annotations exist, and the description lacks behavioral traits. It does not disclose whether the tool is read-only, requires authentication, or has side effects. The long list of allowed values for analyticsEventAction is a minor detail but insufficient.

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 cluttered with a long pipe-separated list of allowed values, making it hard to parse. It is not concise and lacks structure, mixing endpoint info with parameter details in one sentence.

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?

The description fails to explain what the tool returns (count result), expected output format, or any additional context. Given the lack of output schema, the description should cover return semantics, but it does not.

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 describes all three parameters with minimal descriptions (e.g., 'query param q (str)'). The description adds the list of allowed values for analyticsEventAction, which provides extra semantic info beyond the schema. However, it incorrectly states that q is required when the schema does not enforce it.

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 'Count objects by stuff' which is vague. It does not specify what 'objects' are or what 'stuff' refers to. The verb 'Count' and the resource path are mentioned but without clear context.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Sibling tools like task_event_count and task_endpoints_event_count_1 exist but there is no differentiation. No context about prerequisites or scenarios.

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