get_steam_level

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool returns player_level and gives a usage example, but does not mention error conditions, authentication needs, or that it is a read-only operation. However, the verb '조회' implies a read, and the simple nature of the tool partially compensates.

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

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

The description consists of two short sentences and an example, all front-loaded with the purpose. Every sentence contributes value without redundancy.

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

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

The tool has one required parameter and an output schema, and the description includes the purpose, return data, and a usage example. It is slightly incomplete because it lacks any caveats or usage guidance, but for a simple getter it is largely sufficient.

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

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

The schema already describes steam_id as the 64-bit Steam ID with 100% coverage. The description adds a concrete example value ('76561198000000000'), which clarifies the expected format and aids invocation. This is a useful addition beyond the schema.

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

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

The description clearly states 'retrieves the user's Steam level' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like get_user_profile or get_player_bans by focusing on the specific Steam level metric. The mention of player_level in return data reinforces the specific output.

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

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It only provides a usage example with steam_id, but does not explain context, prerequisites, or exclusions. This is a clear gap given the many sibling tools.

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