Batch Get In App Products

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral disclosure burden. It only says 'Get details,' implying a read operation, but doesn't mention batch size limits, authentication needs, product-state requirements, or error handling behaviors. The output schema may cover return shape, but not these behavioral traits.

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 a single sentence with no redundancy or filler, and the core action is front-loaded. It is appropriately concise, though its brevity leaves out useful context that would be covered in other dimensions.

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?

Given the large sibling set and lack of annotations, the description is too sparse to fully orient an agent. It doesn't explain when batch retrieval is appropriate, what constraints apply, or how it relates to the many similar product-management tools, even though an output schema exists for return values.

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 description coverage is 100%, with both skus and package_name already described in the input schema. The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond that, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 a specific verb ('Get'), resource ('in-app products'), and scope ('multiple at once'), which distinguishes it from single-product and listing tools. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from the similarly named batch_get_one_time_products sibling, so full sibling differentiation is absent.

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 is provided on when to choose batch_get_in_app_products over get_in_app_product, list_in_app_products, or batch_get_one_time_products. The phrase 'at once' weakly implies a use case, but there is no explicit context, alternatives, or exclusions.

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