browser_get_console_logs

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the action without revealing what format the logs are returned in, whether logs are cleared after retrieval, or any side effects. This is minimal and lacks behavioral nuance.

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 a single, concise sentence that directly communicates the tool's purpose. Every word is necessary and there is no redundancy or filler. It is optimally concise.

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 tool is simple with no parameters or output schema. The description states the core function but omits details about the return value (e.g., format, structure, or whether it represents an array of messages). While this may be acceptable for such a simple tool, the lack of return information leaves the description slightly incomplete.

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 tool has zero parameters, and the input schema is empty with high coverage by definition. The baseline for zero parameters is 4. The description adds no extra parameter semantics, but none are required since there are no parameters to explain.

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 clearly states the tool's function: 'Get the console logs from the browser'. It uses a specific verb and resource, and it is distinct from all sibling tools that handle navigation, interaction, or screenshots. This is a precise and unambiguous purpose.

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 description implies usage for retrieving browser console logs, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus others, nor does it mention any prerequisites or exclusions. Given the absence of alternative log-related tools, the intended context is somewhat implied but not formally stated.

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