Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It does not mention any side effects, authentication requirements, error handling, or performance characteristics. The agent is left unaware of important behavior beyond the basic action.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is concise (4 words) but at the expense of substance. It is not verbose, but it lacks necessary detail, so it does not fully earn its place as a self-contained description.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Although an output schema exists, the description omits any context about when to retrieve a model by ID, such as prerequisites, typical use cases, or the returned model structure. The tool is simple, but for an AI agent, more context would improve correct usage.

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

Parameters1/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% for the single parameter 'id', and the description adds no meaning about its format, type, or expected values. The agent cannot infer what constitutes a valid ID or how to construct it.

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?

The description 'Get Model By Id' clearly states the verb (get), resource (model), and identifier (by id). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like get_models (list) and get_model_profile_image. However, it is minimal and does not elaborate on the scope.

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?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as get_models or get_base_models. With many sibling get_* tools, an agent would need external context to decide which to invoke.

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