A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It discloses that this is a read of page text and interactive elements with numbering, but it does not describe side effects, error behavior, permissions, or how the numbered elements relate to follow-up click/type actions.

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 a single efficient sentence with the core action and returned content front-loaded. Every phrase contributes to understanding what gets read.

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 read tool with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description adequately covers the return content. It could be more complete by clarifying the scope of 'element' or the connection between numbered elements and sibling click/type tools.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage for the single optional 'element' parameter, so the schema already explains scoping. The description does not add any further meaning about how element scoping behaves, which is acceptable but not enriching.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource: reading the current CrewNest page. It also specifies what is returned (text, numbered buttons, links, fields), though it does not explicitly contrast itself with siblings such as crewnest_open or crewnest_click.

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?

Usage is implied by 'current CrewNest page,' suggesting this is for inspecting an already-open page. However, there is no explicit when-to-use guidance, no exclusions, and no named alternative such as crewnest_guide or crewnest_status.

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