Behavior4/5

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

The description adds key behavioral context: 'Permanently removes ... cannot be undone through the API.' This goes beyond the annotations (which do not mark it as destructive) by clarifying the irreversible nature of the action. No contradictions with annotations.

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 well-structured: a summary sentence, a paragraph on permanence, and clear Args/Returns sections. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the tool's simplicity, the description is complete: it explains the effect (permanent removal, no further emails, irreversible), specifies 'classic automation,' and references an output schema (present in context). No additional context is needed.

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 description documents two required parameters (workflow_id, email_address) with brief explanations in Args, but the optional 'account' parameter is not mentioned. With 0% schema description coverage, the description partially compensates but misses one parameter.

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?

The description clearly states it removes a subscriber from a classic automation workflow. The verb 'remove' and resource 'automation subscriber' are specific, and the tool is distinct from siblings like add_automation_queue_subscriber or get_automation_removed_subscriber.

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 removing subscribers from automations but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives like unsubscribe_member or remove_members_from_segment. No when-not-to-use guidance is provided.

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