ListDataServiceApis

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It only states it 'gets information list' without disclosing behavioral traits like pagination behavior (implied by PageSize/PageNumber parameters but not explained), authentication requirements, rate limits, or what constitutes 'information' in the list. The description is minimal and lacks operational context.

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, efficient sentence in Chinese with no wasted words. It's appropriately concise for a list operation, though it could be more front-loaded with key details (like specifying 'APIs' explicitly).

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 7 parameters, no annotations, and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain the return format, pagination behavior, or error conditions. For a list tool with filtering parameters, more context is needed to guide effective use.

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 all 7 parameters well-documented in the schema itself. The description adds no parameter-specific information beyond what the schema provides, so it meets the baseline of 3 for high schema coverage without compensating value.

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 '获取数据服务API开发中的信息列表' (Get information list in data service API development) states a general purpose (list information) but lacks specificity about what exactly is being listed (APIs) and doesn't distinguish from many sibling list tools. It's vague about the resource scope compared to more specific siblings like ListDataServicePublishedApis.

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 about when to use this tool versus alternatives. With siblings like GetDataServiceApi (singular retrieval), ListDataServicePublishedApis (published APIs only), and CreateDataServiceApi (creation), the description offers no comparison or context for selection.

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