get_product_info

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral burden. It does disclose the important auth behavior ('No API key required') and 'Get' reasonably implies a read-only operation. It does not describe what the returned object looks like, whether the content is static, or if any limits apply, but for a lightweight info tool this is acceptable.

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?

A single sentence encapsulates the tool's purpose, scope, and a key auth constraint. Every element earns its place, and the most relevant information is front-loaded with the verb and resource first.

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 tool with one optional parameter, 100% schema coverage, and no output schema, the description is essentially complete for invocation. The only notable omission is an explicit note about what form the returned information takes, or guidance to use get_api_docs for API-specific needs, but these are minor for a simple 'get info' utility.

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?

The input schema already provides 100% coverage with an enum and a clear description for the single optional 'topic' parameter. The description mostly repeats the same topic list and adds no deeper meaning about parameter syntax, defaults, or interactions, so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 names a specific verb ('Get information about'), defines the singular resource ('Scriptivox capabilities'), and enumerates the covered domains: transcription, audio, video, subtitles, meeting bot, API. It is clearly distinguished from siblings like get_pricing or get_supported_languages by focusing on capabilities rather than prices, languages, or API docs.

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 intended use is implied: call this when you need general information about Scriptivox capabilities. However, it does not explicitly say when to prefer a sibling such as get_api_docs for API-specific documentation or get_pricing for pricing, and the 'API' topic could overlap with get_api_docs, so the routing guidance is only implicit.

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