estimativa_safra

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

No annotations provided, but description makes clear this is a read operation (estimate query). Adds context on product list and default season. Could mention aggregation level more explicitly.

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?

Very concise: one sentence for purpose, one line listing products, two lines for parameters. No redundant information.

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?

Has output schema (assumed covers return format), description mentions state-level data and components (area, production, yield). Adequate for typical use, though could explicitly mention that results are per state.

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?

Input schema has zero description coverage; description fully explains parameters: produto with examples of crop names, safra with format and default. Adds significant meaning beyond schema.

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 it provides current crop season estimates by state (area, production, yield) and lists specific products, differentiating it from sibling tools focused on other agricultural metrics.

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?

Indicates it provides estimates by state and lists parameters, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives like balanco or clima.

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