Behavior4/5

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

Description lists specific data returned (name, address, rating, etc.), adding value beyond annotations that only indicate readOnly and openWorld. No contradictions. Could mention data freshness or constraints, but overall good.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

One sentence listing many details, concise and front-loaded. Could be slightly more structured (e.g., bullets or separation of output categories), but no wasted words.

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?

Given no output schema and 3 parameters, description covers most important aspects. Mentions output fields comprehensively. However, misses that locationId must come from a search tool (though schema says so) and doesn't explain return format. Still adequate.

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 100%, so baseline is 3. The description does not add extra meaning to parameters beyond what schema provides (e.g., currency code). The list of output fields indirectly explains the locationId purpose but doesn't enhance parameter understanding.

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 verb 'Get' and specific resource 'TripAdvisor location details', listing many output fields. Differentiates from siblings that focus on photos, reviews, or searches.

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?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The listed output fields imply it for detailed location info, but no direct comparison with siblings or mention of prerequisites like needing a locationId from search.

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