Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavioral traits. It implies a read-only operation ('Get') but does not explicitly state it is non-destructive, mention any side effects, or describe the output format. The existence of an output schema is not acknowledged.

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?

The description is a single sentence that front-loads the verb and object, making it concise. However, it may be too sparse, lacking any structural breakdown of parameters or usage steps, but it earns a 4 for efficiency.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the tool has 4 parameters and an output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain how parameters relate (e.g., identifier only meaningful with specific resource types) or what the output contains. The schema descriptions exist but are not tied together by the tool description.

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, so the baseline is 3. The tool description does not add any additional meaning beyond the schema; it simply restates the purpose. No parameter-level elaboration is provided.

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 the tool retrieves a specific resource from a connected system. It uses a specific verb ('Get') and object ('specific resource'), and the '(Pro)' suffix indicates it's a premium feature. It implicitly distinguishes from sibling tools like 'delimit_resource_list' and 'delimit_resource_drivers'.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., 'delimit_resource_list' for listing). It lacks any 'when to use' or 'when not to use' information, leaving the agent to infer usage context from the purpose.

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