sellercloud_get_order

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

No annotations provided, so description bears full burden. It discloses that it returns null if order not found, but does not mention authentication requirements, rate limits, or any side effects. Minimal behavioral info.

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?

Extremely concise: four lines total. Front-loaded with purpose, then structured parameter and return descriptions. No redundant sentences.

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 simple tool with 1 parameter and an output schema, the description covers the core functionality, parameter meaning, and return behavior. Missing usage guidance and behavioral details (rate limits, auth) but acceptable given low complexity.

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 0% (no param descriptions in schema). Description adds 'SellerCloud OrderID (integer)', which gives context beyond the schema's 'Order Id' title and integer type. However, it does not elaborate on format or possible values.

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 'Fetch full order detail including line items.' Identifies specific verb and resource. Distinguishes from siblings like sellercloud_search_orders (search vs fetch) and sellercloud_get_product (different resource).

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?

Does not explicitly state when to use this tool vs alternatives. Usage is implied by requiring an order_id, but no guidance on context (e.g., use when you have an ID, vs search_orders when you don't).

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