get_social_signals_detail

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

With no annotations provided and a very brief description, the tool's behavioral traits are entirely opaque. The description does not disclose output format, data sources, update frequency, or any side effects, leaving the agent with minimal information.

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 very short and concise, but it sacrifices essential detail. While brevity is valuable, the extreme conciseness results in under-specification that harms usefulness.

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 has only one parameter and no output schema or annotations, the description should provide more context about what 'social signal detail' means, the nature of the output, and how it relates to sibling tools. The current description is incomplete for effective tool selection.

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 adds no additional meaning to the 'symbol' parameter. The parameter is left entirely unexplained, forcing the agent to rely on the parameter name alone.

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' and resource 'social signal detail' for 'a single symbol', making it easy to understand the tool's basic function. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from the sibling tool 'get_social_signals', which likely lists multiple signals, but the phrase 'single symbol' provides some differentiation.

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 no guidance on when to use this tool versus other social signal or sentiment tools. No context on prerequisites, data freshness, or typical use cases is given.

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