batch_inspect_urls

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

Discloses the API limit of 10 URLs per call, which is useful. However, with no annotations provided, the description does not state whether the operation is read-only or has side effects, nor does it mention authentication requirements or other behavioral traits beyond the limit.

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?

Two sentences with no wasted words. The key information (batch action, result per URL, limit) is front-loaded efficiently.

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 description is complete for a batch inspection tool given that a separate output schema exists (not described here). However, it lacks differentiation from the sibling tool 'inspect_url' and does not mention required parameters or common usage patterns, which would improve completeness.

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?

Has 3 parameters with 0% schema description coverage. The description adds the constraint 'Maximum 10 URLs per call' related to page_urls, but does not explain account or site_url parameters. Most parameters remain undocumented.

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 the action 'Inspect multiple URLs at once' and the result 'Returns one result per URL'. It distinguishes from the sibling tool 'inspect_url' by indicating batch capability.

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?

Implies usage for multiple URLs but does not explicitly state when to use batch_inspect_urls versus inspect_url. Mentions a limit (max 10) but no when-not-to-use or alternative guidance.

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