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

No annotations provided; description only states upsert behavior. Does not disclose permissions, rate limits, destructive potential, or what happens on conflict beyond 'update-and-return'. Minimal transparency.

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?

Single sentence is concise, but lacks depth. Front-loaded with main behavior, but no structure for parameter details. Could be expanded without losing conciseness.

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?

With 6 parameters, no output schema, no annotations, the description is insufficient. Missing details on return value, parameter usage, required fields beyond phone, and edge cases. Incomplete for effective tool 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 has 0% description coverage for 6 parameters. Description adds no explanations for any parameter (e.g., name, tags, email, country_code, custom_attributes). Agent must rely solely on parameter names.

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?

Describes upsert behavior ('create a new contact, or update-and-return an existing one with the same phone number') with a specific verb and resource. Distinguishes from sibling 'whatify_update_contact' by clarifying it handles creation and upsert.

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 use for creating or updating contacts by phone, but no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use. Lacks alternatives or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer that separate update tool exists.

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

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

No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It adds that the tool returns delivery/read rate stats, indicating read-only behavior. However, it doesn't disclose auth requirements, error scenarios, or other traits beyond the basic purpose.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

The description is a single concise sentence with no unnecessary words. It front-loads the key action and result, making it efficient for an agent to parse.

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 the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description provides adequate context by stating the purpose and the returned stats. However, it does not explain the parameter or the structure of the stats, which could be clearer.

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 0% and the description does not mention the campaign_id parameter or explain its role. The description provides no semantic context beyond the schema itself, which only includes the parameter name and type.

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 the verb 'Get', the resource 'single campaign', and includes the distinguishing feature 'delivery/read rate stats'. It differentiates from sibling tools like whatify_list_campaigns which likely returns multiple campaigns without stats.

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?

Usage is implied (use when you need a single campaign's stats) but no explicit guidance on when not to use or reference to alternatives like whatify_list_campaigns. Lacks explicit exclusions or context.

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

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only says 'Get a single contact by id.' It does not disclose error handling, return value, or any behavioral traits beyond the basic retrieval.

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?

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 the two parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what the list returns, how pagination works, or how status filtering behaves. A more complete description would include this context.

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?

Two parameters (status, per_page) have no descriptions in the schema (0% coverage), and the description does not explain their meaning or usage. The description fails to add any value beyond the types.

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 'List broadcast campaigns' clearly identifies the verb (list) and resource (broadcast campaigns). While it is specific, it does not differentiate itself from sibling list tools beyond the resource name, but the resource name is distinct enough.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives like whatify_list_contacts or whatify_list_conversations. It lacks context on filtering, prerequisites, or expected use cases.

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

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

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not specify context such as 'use to check remaining credits before sending' or any conditions for use.

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