detect_mac_randomization

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It describes the high-level modes but does not disclose behavioral details such as whether the tool is passive or active, required permissions, or potential side effects. More transparency is needed for safe invocation.

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 extremely concise, with two sentences plus a bullet-like list of modes. Every word is informative and contributes to understanding the tool's purpose and modes.

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 high schema coverage and no output schema, the description adequately covers the core functionality (three modes). It does not explain return values, but the tool is a analysis tool with likely output that is self-explanatory. Overall, fairly complete.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add significant meaning beyond the schema; it explains modes but not parameter details. The schema already provides adequate descriptions for each parameter.

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 it is a unified MAC randomization analysis tool with three distinct modes (bypass, assess, tracking), each with a brief explanation. This distinguishes it from sibling tools, which focus on other wireless security aspects.

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?

The description provides clear context for each mode (bypass for OS-specific bypass techniques, assess for implementation quality, tracking for device tracking). It does not explicitly state when not to use the tool or mention alternatives, but given the sibling list, no direct alternative exists.

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