Get DOL LCA Disclosure File URLs

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

No annotations provided, so the description must convey behavior. It implies a safe, read-only retrieval of URLs without side effects. However, it does not explicitly mention idempotence, rate limits, or authentication needs. The description is adequate but minimal.

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?

Single sentence with no filler words. Every part adds information: verb, resource specificity, temporal scope. Efficiently structured for quick parsing.

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?

Lacks details about the return format (e.g., single URL object, list, mapping). No output schema is provided. For a tool returning multiple URL types, the agent might need to know structure to use the result. Could be more complete.

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?

Both parameters ('quarter' and 'fiscalYear') are fully described in the schema with min/max bounds and text. The description adds no extra meaning beyond 'for a fiscal year quarter'. With 100% schema coverage, 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?

Clearly states the tool returns specific DOL LCA file URLs (disclosure, Appendix A, worksite, record-layout) for a given fiscal year quarter. The verb 'Return' is precise and the resource list differentiates it from sibling tools like 'foreign_labor_files' or 'lca_disclosure_fields'.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Among many sibling tools (e.g., 'foreign_labor_files', 'lca_disclosure_fields'), there is no mention of contexts where this is preferred or not. The description only states the tool's function.

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