D1.9/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden, and it discloses nothing: no auth requirements, no pagination, no error behavior, no note that this is a read-only relationship fetch. Repeating the URL is not behavioral context.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is extremely short and front-loads nothing else, so there is little wasted text by volume, but the endpoint string is needlessly duplicated in parentheses, which is pure redundancy. Brevity here reflects under-specification rather than tight editing.

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?

With no annotations and no output schema, the description should at minimum convey that this returns the related app resource and any relevant constraints. It conveys none of that, leaving the agent to guess the return shape and relationship semantics entirely.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100% — the id and fields_apps parameters are both documented in the schema (including the long enum of includable fields). With the schema doing the heavy lifting, the baseline of 3 applies; the description contributes nothing additional about either parameter.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description is nothing but the raw endpoint path repeated twice: "GET /v1/preReleaseVersions/{id}/app (GET /v1/preReleaseVersions/{id}/app)". It restates the tool name/route rather than stating in words what the tool does or returns. An agent can infer 'fetch the app related to a pre-release version' from the path pattern, but the description itself adds no purpose statement and does not distinguish it from the sibling pre_release_versions_app_get_to_one_relationship.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

There is no usage guidance whatsoever — no when-to-use, no prerequisites, no mention of alternatives. The near-identical sibling pre_release_versions_app_get_to_one_relationship is left entirely unaddressed, so nothing tells the agent which of the two to call.

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