get_kubernetes_namespace_breakdown

Get a detailed cost breakdown for any Kubernetes namespace, including workload-level costs, pod counts, and efficiency metrics to identify waste.

Instructions

Deep-dive cost breakdown for a single Kubernetes namespace. Shows every workload, pod count, CPU/memory efficiency, and waste.

Examples: - "Break down costs in the production namespace" - "Which services in 'data-platform' are most expensive?" - "Show me waste in the staging namespace"

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It indicates a read-only analysis (breakdown, waste), but does not explicitly disclose read-only nature, permissions needed, or rate limits. Minimal behavioral context beyond what is implied.

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

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is concise and front-loaded with the core purpose. Examples are provided inline without extra fluff. Every sentence adds value, and no unnecessary information is present.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers the essential functionality and usage context. It lacks details about the output structure, but given the simplicity, it is mostly complete. Could be improved by briefly noting the return format.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must add meaning. It mentions 'single Kubernetes namespace' and provides example values, but does not specify format, required format, or constraints beyond the schema's required field. Adds some context but could be more precise.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states it provides a deep-dive cost breakdown for a single Kubernetes namespace, showing workloads, pod count, CPU/memory efficiency, and waste. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_kubernetes_costs which cover broader cluster costs.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for drilling into one namespace via examples, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives like get_kubernetes_costs or compare_kubernetes_clusters. No exclusions are mentioned.

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