Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full burden. It only says 'List customers', which implies a read operation but does not disclose pagination behavior (though 'cursor' param exists), rate limits, or whether the result is sorted. The description adds no behavioral context beyond the obvious.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is a single sentence of 6 words, which is extremely short. While concise, it omits critical information needed for correct tool use. The sentence does not earn its place because it provides minimal value beyond the tool name.

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

Completeness1/5

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

Given the tool has 5 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is completely inadequate. It does not explain pagination, filtering, sorting, or return format. An agent cannot correctly invoke this tool without external knowledge.

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

Parameters1/5

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

The input schema has 5 parameters with 0% description coverage. The description does not explain any parameter (e.g., what 'query' does, how 'cursor' works, the meaning of 'sortKey' options). With no schema descriptions, the description must compensate but fails completely.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description states 'List customers from the Shopify store', which provides a clear verb+resource combination. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'getCustomer' (single customer) or other list tools, and lacks any mention of filtering or pagination. It is minimally adequate but not specific.

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 gives no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'getCustomer' for a single customer or other list tools. No context is provided about prerequisites, when not to use, or expected use cases.

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