keyso_get_zen_channel_publications

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

With no annotations, the description carries the behavioral burden. It explicitly states 'Method: GET', which signals a read-only operation, and the example with page/per_page implies paginated results. However, it does not disclose authentication needs, rate limits, error behavior, or response format, leaving important behavioral details unstated.

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 compact and front-loaded: a short title, the method/path, and one example request. There is no filler or redundant prose, though it is slightly under-specified rather than elegantly concise.

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?

The tool has no output schema and no annotations, so the description must carry more weight. It gives a good example but omits response shape, default pagination values, token behavior, and any differentiation from sibling Zen tools. An agent would still need to guess several operational details before calling it confidently.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents each parameter. The description adds value by providing a concrete example request with real sample values, including a channel ID, sort field (`datePublishAt`), and pagination parameters, which helps an agent understand how to compose the query correctly.

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 clearly states 'Дзен - Публикации канала' and gives the HTTP method and path, so an agent can tell this fetches publications for a Zen channel. However, it does not explicitly differentiate itself from the closely related sibling keyso_get_zen_channel_new_top_publications, so it loses some clarity points.

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?

There is no guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description only provides a title, method, path, and example request; it never explains that this returns all channel publications rather than only new/top ones or when one should prefer a sibling tool.

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