Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
requestsYesBulk offer publish requests
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are present, and the description does not disclose any behavioral traits such as destructive nature, authentication requirements, rate limits, or side effects. The description fails to inform the agent about the implications of bulk publishing.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is extremely concise but at the cost of missing critical details. It is not structured; it is a single, insufficient phrase. Effective conciseness should convey necessary information efficiently.

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

Completeness1/5

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

With no output schema, no annotations, and a complex nested input for 1 parameter, the description is completely inadequate. It fails to explain the tool's behavior, return format, or how to structure the requests array, leaving the agent without essential context.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage with the property 'requests' described as 'Bulk offer publish requests'. The tool description adds no additional semantic value beyond what is already in the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description 'Bulk publish multiple offers' is a clear verb+resource pair, but it adds no additional context beyond the tool name. It distinguishes from siblings like 'ebay_publish_offer' only through the 'Bulk' prefix, which is already in the name.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'ebay_publish_offer' or 'ebay_publish_offer_by_inventory_item_group'. There is no mention of prerequisites or limitations.

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