games_overview_v2

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions API key requirements and points to a guide resource, but does not state whether the operation is read-only, what it returns, or any side effects. For a POST endpoint, this is a significant gap.

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 appropriately concise, front-loading the endpoint and purpose, then stating requirements. Two sentences with no wasted words.

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?

For a 5-parameter tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It lacks body structure, return format, and clear use cases. The pointer to an external guide resource attempts to compensate but is not self-contained.

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% since each parameter has a basic description. The tool description adds only 'body required', which is already in the schema's required array, so no additional meaning is provided.

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 identifies the endpoint and resource as 'Price Overview', which is clear enough to suggest a pricing-related operation. However, it lacks an explicit verb (e.g., 'get', 'fetch') and does not differentiate from sibling tools like games_prices_v3 or deals_v2.

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 given on when to use this tool instead of alternatives. It only states required body and API key requirements, with no contextual cues for typical use cases or exclusions.

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