TDQS

A3.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden but only describes the high-level action (accept and refund). It does not disclose side effects, reversibility, or post-action state changes, leaving significant behavioral gaps for a mutation tool.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is extremely concise with a single sentence for purpose followed by scope information, front-loading key information without unnecessary verbosity.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The description covers purpose and OAuth scope, but lacks details on expected response (no output schema), prerequisites beyond scope, or behavior after acceptance. Given the absence of annotations and output schema, the description is minimally adequate but could be more informative.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the input schema already documents parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what is in the schema, meeting baseline requirements but providing no extra value.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool accepts a payment dispute and allows eBay to refund the buyer, specifying the action and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like ebay_contest_payment_dispute by indicating when to use this tool (when agreeing with buyer claim).

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides a clear usage condition ('when you agree with the buyer claim') and includes required OAuth scope, guiding the agent on when to use this tool. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives or state when not to use it beyond the condition.

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