List Punch List Manager Options

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, etc. The description adds pagination details, required parameter, and endpoint info. However, it inaccurately describes the return as 'Punch List records' instead of 'available manager options,' and is vague about 'login informations.' This reduces transparency.

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 moderately concise but contains redundancy, such as mentioning pagination twice and including extra API info. It could be streamlined without losing key information.

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 lacks details about the response structure (e.g., fields returned for each manager). Since there is no output schema, the description should clarify what 'login informations' includes. It also doesn't mention authentication or other prerequisites. The API info helps but overall completeness is insufficient.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description mentions project_id, page, per_page, and query, reinforcing their purpose but not adding new semantics. Baseline 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 states it returns login information for users that can be assigned as Punch Managers, which is the core purpose. However, it also says 'Returns a paginated JSON array of Punch List records,' which is inaccurate and creates confusion with the actual endpoint for available managers. This detracts from clarity.

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 tells when to use it: for a paginated overview, to find IDs, or to filter by query parameters. It doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like list_punch_items, but the mention of 'available to assign as Punch Manager' implies its specific use case. Some guidance is provided but not comprehensive.

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