mesh_info

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

Describes return as 'Mesh statistics including element counts' implying read-only, but does not explicitly state non-destructive behavior or side effects. With no annotations, more detail would be beneficial.

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?

Concise docstring with clear Args/Returns sections. No wasted words; every sentence adds value.

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?

Adequately covers tool purpose and parameters. With no output schema, description could elaborate on return structure, but for a simple info tool it is sufficient.

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?

Adds meaning beyond the schema by providing default values and human-readable descriptions for both parameters ('Mesh sequence name', 'Model name'). Compensates for 0% schema description coverage.

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 'Get information about a mesh' with verb and resource. Distinguishes from sibling mesh tools like mesh_create or mesh_list by focusing on info retrieval, but could be more specific about what information.

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 like mesh_list or other info tools. Does not specify prerequisites or exclusions.

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